'''Obligender''', pronounced ob-li-gender'','' is a gender that is defined by having a partial connection to one's AGAB because of coercion or abuse, as well as the presence of gender uncertainty. They feel obligated to performativity of their AGAB due to coercion/abuse, so they feel that their gender identity would be different had they not been through that, but because they have, their gender identity is different. |

For example, an obligender person who is AFAB may feel that, due to abuse, their gender is still female because of their AGAB and coercion, but they aren't actually sure or certain about their gender identity and might not be female at all were it not for that coercion/abuse. |

Obligender can be combined with terms to make it easier to specify one's gender experience, like oblimasculine, oblifeminine, etc. |

Many cisn't individuals may feel "obligated" to be/perform their AGAB, but this term is specifically for those who feel that experience comes from coercion and abuse, so this term is exclusive to abuse victims. |
