Other, othergender, other-gender, or eligender indicates an otherly, different, or foreign gender, but also a specific/objective gender identity. It is beyond the pre-established gender terms within a society. It is typically used as a general category for any gender that is outside the rest of the given options. For example, usually in documents, there is "male", "female" and "other" option, possibly among other options.[1][2] It may overlap with x-gender in this way. Though some people may identify as "other" as a specific identity, similar to non-binary.
Outrogender (outrogênero in Portuguese) is conceptualized synonymously with abinary, being an umbrella term for neutrois, positive, negative, aliagender and graygender.[3]
It is not to be confused with third gender. Unlike third genders, other gender is not a culturally specific identity.
