'''Feathergender''' is a [[xenogender]] whichthat isfeels light, decorative, and similar to the sensation one gets when a feather brushes up against your skin. It can also be when one feels a strong connection to feathers, and the feathers of a certain kind of bird. Feathergender is not the same thing as the [[birdgender]] category; but people who are feathergender may also identify with one or more [[Birdgender|birdgenders]]. Someone can feel their gender is related to the feathers of a bird while not feeling that their gender is related to that actual bird, so some feathergender people may say that they're "_______feathergender[bird] feathergender" to denote the bird to whose feathers they feel the strongest connection. Examples of genders based on the feathers of specific kinds of birds are owlfeather-gender, hawkfeather-gender, etc.
Feathergender can be felt alongside other genders besides feathergender, and although feathergender is a xenogender, feathergender people do not have to be [[xenic]].
Feathergender can be either an umbrella term for specific genders related to specific birds' feathers, or an actual gender describing someone's connection to feathers. Feathergender people, just like most other gender identities, can be any and all genders besides feathergender as well, and though feathergender is a xenogender, feathergender people do not have to be xenic. '''Feathergirls''' are women-aligned feathergender people; '''featherboys''' are men-aligned feathergender people; '''featherbies''' are non-binary-aligned feathergender people; '''feathrals''' are neutral-aligned feathergender people; '''featherages''' are agenrine-aligned feathergender people, and plural-aligned feathergender people are '''multifeathers'''. Xenine-aligned feathergender people would simply call themselves '''feathers'''.
