 == History ==
 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.<ref>https://bigendering.tumblr.com/post/161640476186/i-was-thinking-iso-would-be-for-anyone-who-didnt</ref>
-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.

 “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.
