Pangender is a term for people who feel that they cannot be labeled as male or female in gender. As such it has a great deal of overlap with genderqueer. Pangendered people feel that they do not fit into binary genders, instead identifying as mixed gender (both male and female) or as a third gendered.[1] The term is sometimes used by some in the LGBT community, such as the Radical Faeries to be one that is inclusive, meaning "all genders".[2] Pangendered individuals, as well as transsexuals, are sometimes dismissed as fetishists ignoring the issue of gender identification altogether.

  • Being pangender does not require that one knows everything about all the established genders nowadays; being pangender can go beyond the known genders. Pangender can express gender fluidity or not. For example, a pangender person can manifest genderflux, flowing from pangender to agender. Pangender = binary genders (100% female and 100% male) + + unknown genders. Panflux is a gender identity consisting of pangender + genderflux. Panflux can be: (1) a person who is pangender and genderflux, flowing from pangender to agender/genderless, (2) a person who is pangender and genderless at the same time.

  • Pangender is a term for people who feel that they cannot be labeled as male or female in gender. As such it has a great deal of overlap with genderqueer. Pangendered people feel that they do not fit into binary genders, instead identifying as mixed gender (both male and female) or as a third gendered. The term is sometimes used by some in the LGBT community, such as the Radical Faeries to be one that is inclusive, meaning "all genders". Whereas sex refers to someone's anatomy, gender refers either to gender identity or gender role, which are roles and qualities that society associates with being either men or women. Pangender individuals are happy living "in between" and have no desire to live exclusively as one gender or the other, which makes the group a distinct minority within the transgender population. In some cases, pangender individuals are born with the physical sex characteristics of either males or females, but frequently display the cases, outward appearance, behavior and/or clothing of the opposite gender. In other cases, a pangender person can be born intersex. Because gender identification is so closely intertwined with sexual gratification in western culture, the sexuality of pangender individuals is difficult to discuss. For example, terms such as "homosexual" have little meaning when applied to a pangender people - is the person only attracted to other pangender individuals, or are they attracted to the person who are the same gender as their birth certificate proclaims their sex to be (even intersex individuals are frequently assigned one of the two dominant genders at birth)? Pangender individuals, as well as transsexuals, are sometimes dismissed as fetishists ignoring the issue of gender identification altogether.
  • Being pangender does not require that one knows everything about all the established genders nowadays; being pangender can go beyond the known genders. Pangender can express gender fluidity or not. For example, a pangender person can manifest genderflux, flowing from pangender to agender. Pangender = binary genders (100% female and 100% male) + + unknown genders. Pangender can be (at the same time or not): (1) a person who is every gender it’s possible for them to be, (2) a person who is a large number of genders, (3) a person who is all genders within their own culture and life experience, (4) a person who is infinite genders within their own culture and life experience, (5) a person whose gender experience goes beyond the known genders within their own culture and life experience, (6) a person who is binary genders (female and male) + known genders + unknown genders within their own culture and life experience, (7) a person who is polygender and more genders within their own culture and life experience. Panflux is a gender identity consisting of pangender + genderflux. Panflux can be: (1) a person who is pangender and genderflux, flowing from pangender to agender/genderless, (2) a person who is pangender and genderless at the same time. Pangender is not the same as polygender or maxigender. These are different gender identities.
