'''Xumgender''', also known as '''pendogender''' is the state of never being satisfied with your gender no matter how well it fits due to self-doubt or identity issues. This causes one to compulsively search and seek out something that fits even better- to find "the gender" or "the one truth"- though one will never be found due to a) One's neurotype. b) Words will never be able to describe one's gender. c) One's gender is paradoxical. This inability to find a "one true gender" frequent causes anxiety and doubt and can even cause the label xumgender to feel imperfect to the individual. |

Xumgender, also known as pendogender is the state of never being satisfied with your gender no matter how well it fits due to self-doubt or identity issues. This causes one to compulsively search and seek out something that fits even better- to find "the gender" or "the one truth"- though one will never be found due to a) One's neurotype. b) Words will never be able to describe one's gender. c) One's gender is paradoxical. This inability to find a "one true gender" frequent causes anxiety and doubt and can even cause the label xumgender to feel imperfect to the individual.
