Isogender was coined by an anonymous ask to the Tumblr user Bigendering on June 9, 2017.<ref>https://bigendering.tumblr.com/post/161610343001/this-isnt-a-question-just-me-being-a-nerd-but</ref> The term "iso" comes from the word isomer, as cis and trans are isomer types. |

From Latin, “Abs-”, a prefix meaning “away (from)”, in this case referring to being conceptually ‘away’ from explicit cisgenderness/cisness and transgenderness/transness. + “-gender”, an English neologistic suffix indicating genderedness/genderness. [https://gender-resource.tumblr.com/post/624951702581362688/absgender-a-genderedness-that-is-between-beyond Coined] by Gent ([http://gender-resource.tumblr.com/ Gender-Resource]) in 2020 after Arco-Pluris requested an alternative term for Isogender and Metagender. |

“Abs-” can be used as a prefix in the same way that “Cis-” or “Trans-” can be used as prefixes to discuss one's gender in relation to their assignment. |

Blue, purple, and pink represent masc, fem, and those who may be a mix of both. The greyscale gradient represents attachment or intensity of gender, from white (entirely agender) to dark grey (strong attachment). |

Two tweaked Isogender flags were created by Tumblr user Noname-Nonamorous on August 24, 2021 from Beyond-MOGAI-Pride-Flags' design.<ref>[https://archive.is/fG5ml Noname-Nonamorous' Isogender flags, Archived]</ref> The flag took the original Isogender flag and adjusted the colors, made to look less bright and easier on the eyes. One of the flag features a disk symbol, coming from how Iso, the shortening of Isogender, is also a disk file type. |
