Frostgender is a xenogender that is described as feeling cold and snowy.
Contents
Etymology
Frostgender comes from the word 'frost'.
Pronunciation
[frɑst-dʒən-dɚ]
Definitions
- a gender which is cold and very snowy - MOGAI-Archive submission, 2014[1]
According to the original description, freezegender is "similar to" frostgender, "but also also encompasses other genders as well," which seems to imply one can't be frostgender and another gender label and needs to use a freezegender one to describe having another gender.
History
Frostgender was coined via anonymous submission to the Tumblr blog mogai-archive. The original post was lost with MOGAI-Archive's deletion, but a reblog by the blog Purrloinsucks exists dated August 25, 2014.[1] The flag was then independently created by Deviant Art user Pride-Flags on Sep 11, 2015.[2]

Perceptions and Discrimination
Frostgender people are typically subject to the same transphobia and discrimination other xenogender people are. Prominent anti-MOGAI transphobic blog MOGAI-Watch published a poem specifically mocking frostgender in August of 2014, exposing it to other anti-xenogender people.[3]
