'''Existigender''', also known as '''pensgender''', '''cognogender''', '''cogitogender''', '''opinogender''', or '''filogender''', is a gender that only exists when one think actively thinks about it. When one does not think about or explore their gender or gender identity, they do not have one, or it feels quiet until called to attention. One feels [[genderless]] until they think about their gender, at which point they can "choose" which gender to identify with or have. |
