Definition
''“Arcadegender !! The gender for someone who feels connected to arcades in some way !! Maybe you feel connected to the bright patterns on the carpets. Maybe it’s the fluorescent lights some arcades had. Maybe it’s the freedom your parents gave you with the money you had to split between food and change for the arcades games. Arcadegender people that have anxiety or neurodivergence can also feel connected to the joystick and buttons on the machines, which they may like to fidget with.”'' - Cactusgarbaage, describing arcadegender in the coining post.
