== Definitions ==
* ''Freakshowgender is a xenogender that falls under the Aesthetigender umbrella term. It is a gender that is similar to circusgender, ciscuscoric, and clowncoric, but isn't as bright or clear. Freakshowgender is coined by and for neurodivergents who don't perceive gender like neurotypicals. It is a gender that feels scary yet fun and isn't exactly clear, more muddled and undefined. It also feels related to clowns and circuses in a dark way. It's a gender that rejects societal 'norms' and takes back what was once used against them.'' - Onyxcrow1, 2021<ref>[https://archive.md/f8Coj Freakshowgender coining post]</ref>
== History ==
Freakshowgender was coined on October 4th, 2021 through use of the LGBTA Wiki's page creation. While the concept was attributed to FANDOM user Rexyboy45, the gender's official coining post was created by FANDOM user Onyxcrow1, muddying the true identity of the term's coiner. The term's flag was created at the same time, attributed to both Onyxcrow1 and Rexyboy45.
