Abinary

Abinary (abbreviated AB) is a term referring to any gender that is completely unrelated to maleness/masculinity, femaleness/femininity, and is nowhere in between those things, while not necessarily being genderless. An abinary person may feel a strong sense of gender, however that gender is completely unrelated from the binary genders. Abinary is sometimes used as interchangibly with "unaligned non-binary" or "neutral aligned non-binary", Similar to how some non-binary people are "man-aligned" or "woman-aligned" while not being men or women. Abinary/unaligned non-binary people are completely separate from these categories.

Some examples of abinary genders include neutrois, stellarian, maverique, and aporagender. Many xenogenders are abinary.

Etymology
