    Nymangi flag
    Another nymangi flag

    Nymangi or abinangi refers to an abinary androgyne, or an androgyne who defines their androgynous gender in a way distinct from how the genders of "boy" and "girl" exist in the gender binary.[1] It is a type of androgynity that lacks ties to the gender binary, including a relationship to ambinary/mesobinary androgynehood, cisness, androgyne-alignment (calypsian), midbinary androgyneness, or viabinary/ideobinary androgyny, midgender, and most other widespread connotations of androgyne. Nymangis may even see their androgyny as anonbinary or something else entirely.

    The term is a combination of the words "homonym" and "angi", as from neuangi and nixangi. A nymangi describing their gender identity as “angi” is utilizing a homonym, because their gender, which they call “androgyne”, is a separate gender from the ambinary lingender “androgyne”, despite the fact that the two genders have the same name. It refers to those who repurpose or redefine the word androgyne in an abinary way. Nymangis may also choose to come up with their own definition of androgyne to more accurately describe specifically how they experience gender androgyny outside of the binary-gender system. Some possible examples of nymangi experiences include:

    • Feeling as though their gender is the place where the binary gender androgyne used to be.
    • Having a gender that started out as the binary gender “androgyne” but has become something else entirely, while still feeling as if the name “androgyne” applies to that gender.
    • Using the word angi in contexts which do not pertain to the gender binary.
    • Feeling as though their androgyny is unrelated to or cannot be explained in relation to androgynehood.
    • Having a gender that sounds like the word androgyne but is spelled differently, and is thus may be a different gender.
    • Feeling connected to attributes of androgyny that are unrelated to binary gender.
    • Experiencing a version of gynandry in a gender system that is not the Western binary-gender system.
    • Feeling gender euphoria from being called an androgyne despite being completely outside the gender binary.
    • Feeling as though the abinary aspects of their identity cancels out or removes the binary gendered meaning of the word girl.

    It is the liaspec version of nymboy and nymgirl.
