Empathgender is a fluid or fluctuating gender influenced by when other individuals describe theirs, or when one reads an explanation or description on a gender. Most of the time this causes confusion and questioning about one’s gender, since their experience felt genuine. The influence of a gender can vary, being brief or even lasting for several days.
This gender should only be used by highly sensitive or emotional people. Made with neurodivergent or neurogender individuals in mind, but isn’t exclusive. It can be related to musegender and emotugender.
