Pangender

The Pangender Flag

Pangender is a multigender non-binary gender identity which refers to a vast and diverse multiplicity of genders in the same individual that can extend infinitely, always within the person's own culture and life experience, and may or may not include unknown genders. A pangender person may shift between identities over time or feel as though they have one all encompassing identity that is static/unchanging. 

Pangender is very expansive and unspecific, meaning that there are countless genders with no maximum limit. Being pangender is feeling an entire infinite gender spectrum that is possible for an individual to have. The pangender experience can go beyond the current knowledge of genders.

Pangender Pride Day is on June 19.

Etymology

The Greek prefix “pan” refers to “everything” or “all”. Therefore, pangender means “having all genders it’s possible to have” and other similar definitions.

More Info

Pangender individuals can feel gender fluidity or not. For example, a pangender person can also experience genderflux, flowing from pangender to agender: pangender <-> demipangender <-> agender.

Being pangender does not require that one knows everything about all the established genders, just that their identity includes countless genders simultaneously or over time.

Pangender can be (simultaneously or over time):

1. A person who is every gender it’s possible for them to be.
2. A person who is the entire gender spectrum they can be.
3. A person who is all genders available to them.
4. A person who is an immense number of genders.
5. A person who is all genders within their own culture and life experience.
6. A person who has infinite genders within their own culture and life experience.
7. A person whose gender experience goes beyond the known genders within their own culture and life experience.
8. A person who is binary genders (female and male) + known genders + unknown genders within their own culture and life experience.
9. A person who is polygender and more genders within their own culture and life experience.

Pangender is not the same as polygender because polygender can be finite in number, however, pangender falls under the polygender umbrella since polygender means the feeling of two or more genders.

Pangender is sometimes used interchangeably with omnigender, but it can be considered different from omnigender, because while pangender individual simply says they are all genders, an omnigender person might:

1. Identify with almost but not exactly all genders.
2. Use the genders as "building blocks" to their identity and consider it to be one gender.
3. Are not ambivalent about ther gender like most pangender people are.

Panflux

Panflux is a gender identity consisting of pangender + genderflux.

Panflux can be:

1. A person who is pangender and genderflux (e.g flowing from pangender to agender/genderless).
2. A person who is pangender and genderless at the same time, because of fluctuation.

Flowing from pangender to agender: pangender <-> demipangender <-> agender.

Flags

The proposed Pangender Spectrum pride flags are based on the agender pride flag. The colors are very bright so that they represent the multiplicity of genders (because the white light, in the electromagnetic spectrum, is a combination of all colors).

The yellow color (#fff798 or #ffea7e) represents all the genders that are not related to female and male. The light red color (#ffddcd or #ffc3b0) represents the transition to the genders which are related to female and male. The light violet-pink color (#ffebfb or #ffd6f3) represents the combination of female and male. The white color represents the blend of all these genders. These flags were proposed by Cari Rez Lobo (January, 2015) at Pangendering.
