Etymology
The prefixes abi- and bia- are mixtures of the prefixes for agender and bigender. Bx- is a derivative of the prefix bi-, replacing the i with an x as if one is crossing out that they're bigender, which is common practice for agender identities. The prefix librabi- is a combination of the prefixes for bigender and libragender, a gender identity that is partially agender and partially another gender.
