'''Agender''' is a term which can be literally translated as 'without gender'. It can be seen either as a [[non-binary]] [[gender identity]] or as a statement of not having a gender identity. People who identify as agender may describe themselves as one or more of the following:

−

* Genderless or lacking gender.

−

* Gender neutral. This may be meant in the sense of being neither [[man]] or [[woman]] yet still having a gender.

−

* [[Neutrois]] or neutrally gendered.

−

* Having an unknown or undefinable gender; not aligning with any gender.

−

* Having no other words that fit their gender identity.

−

* Not knowing or not caring about gender, as an internal identity and/or as an external label.

−

* Deciding not to label their gender.

−

* Identifying more as a person than any gender at all.

−

Many agender people also identify as [[genderqueer]], [[non-binary]] and/or [[transgender]]. However, some agender people prefer to avoid these terms, especially transgender, as they feel this implies identifying as a gender other than their [[assigned gender]], while they in fact do not identify as any gender at all.

−

Agender people can have any preference for [[pronouns]], although some prefer to avoid using gendered language about themselves as much as possible. They can also [[Gender expression|present]] in any way - [[masculine]], [[feminine]], [[Androgyny|both]] or neither. Agender people can experience [[dysphoria]] if they are unable to express their identity in a way they are comfortable with.

−

Agender people who wish to appear gender-neutral or genderless may have gender nullification surgery to achieve a body that lacks [[sex characteristics]]. Chromosome therapy is currently being studied by researchers at UC Berkeley which attempts to nullify those chromosomes which stereotypically identify the individual by a sex.

−

Agender people can be of any [[sexuality]] and should not be confused with being asexual.
