    '''Xenogender''' is an [[Umbrella Term|umbrella term]] for [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] gender identities that cannot be fully described through their relation to concepts typically used to describe gender such as [[Masculine|masculinity]], [[Feminine|femininity]], [[Androgynous|androgyny]], [[Neutral|neutrality]], [[Agenrine|agenrity]], or [[Outherine|outherinity]]. Instead, xenogenders can best be described through how they relate to things, beings, or concepts that most people don't think of as having to do with gender, such as animals, plants, things, or concepts. It is sometimes described as any gender that "cannot be contained by human understandings of gender". People who identify as a xenogender may call themselves [[xenic]]. The gender quality associated with xenogenders is [[Xenine|xeninity]]. The opposite of xenogender is [[anthrogender]].
