Isogender is a gender modality that refers to when one is not cisgender, but also does not identify as transgender either.^[1] Examples of individuals who may identify as isogender include:

A bigender, or otherwise multigender individual doesn't really feel transgender as a significant portion of their gender strongly resembles their AGAB, and isn't dysphoric towards their gender.
A non-binary individual who doesn't really feel transgender as their gender is strongly similar to their assigned gender as birth. For example, a feminine-aligned non-binary individual who is AFAB can be considered isogender.
Someone who stops feeling gender incongruence sometimes or someone whose gender incongruence fluctuates in intensity.
An agender or otherwise genderless individual who does not feel like transgender describes them due to the fact that their gender does not exist.

History

Isogender was coined by an anonymous ask to Tumblr user Bigendering on June 9, 2017.^[2] The term "iso" comes from the word isomer, as cis and trans are isomer types.^[3]

Flags

The isogender flag was submitted on Tumblr blog beyond-mogai-pride-flags on May 20, 2018.^[4]

An alternate flag was created and submitted to Tumblr blog ask-pride-color-schemes on October 22, 2019^[5] and to beyond-mogai-pride-flags on August 31, 2019,^[6] with the color meanings as follows: 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.^[7] 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.
