==Etymology==
* "Xeno," meaning alien.
==Definitions==
* ''A nonbinary gender identity that cannot be contained by human understandings of gender; more concerned with crafting other methods of gender categorization and hierarchy such as those relating to animals, plants, or other creatures/things. It’s mainly an umbrella term for genders with themes such as nouns, archetypes, synesthetic experiences, neurodivergences.'' - Pride-color-schemes
{{Quote|Many people feel that they can describe their gender with nouns or other descriptors other than typical gender terms (male/female, masculine/feminine, neutral/nonbinary, etc). In the way that a nonbinary person may feel male-aligned or feminine-aligned, a nonbinary person could feel that the way they experience gender is more aligned with, say, an animal or a planet. They’re more easily able to explain the way their gender feels through an object, creature, archetype, etc. than through typical gender descriptors.
== Controversy ==
* Xenogender terms are frequently cited as a reason why transphobia is so rampant, but this is a logical fallacy; Trans people do not create their own oppression.<ref>https://xenogender.crd.co/#anti</ref>
