'''Klygender''' is a term for when somebody feels that their gender changes because of their [[Gender Presentation|gender presentation]], which may include the style or type of their clothing. It is a type of [[mutogender]] where the change is inspired by clothing. For example, one could feel that they are a [[male]], but their presentation changes to feminine and they then identify as [[female]]. It could apply to [[Xenogender|xenogenders]] where one's gender becomes connected to their clothing as well. It is a subset of [[genderfluid]] or [[genderflux]]. The prefix ''kly-'' can be added to any gender to indicate a klygender identity. |

Klygender is a term for when somebody feels that their gender changes because of their gender presentation, which may include the style or type of their clothing. It is a type of mutogender where the change is inspired by clothing. For example, one could feel that they are a male, but their presentation changes to feminine and they then identify as female. It could apply to xenogenders where one's gender becomes connected to their clothing as well. It is a subset of genderfluid or genderflux. The prefix kly- can be added to any gender to indicate a klygender identity.
History
Klygender was coined on January 5th, 2022 by FANDOM user CandySkyez.[1] A poll to decide the flag was held shortly after.[2] It was originally named "vestigender", but this was changed after the coiner realized that was already taken.[3]
Flag
The klygender flag was decided through a poll on the LGBTA Wiki.[2] It consists of a blue stripe symbolising masculinity, a pink stripe symbolising femininity, a purple stripe symbolising neutrality/androgyny, and a gray stripe symbolising other presentations. A moon is in the middle, symbolising the different "phases" of klygender identities, influenced by gender presentation. A variant with the same symbolism was made by CandySkyez as well.
Etymology
The name comes from the German word "kleidung", which means "clothing".
