Proxvir

Proxvir is a circa-binary gender that is strongly connected to masculinity, but in a different way to how men are connected to masculinity. Proxvir is something separate and entirely on its own. It may be described as a gender that is masculine-aligned or mingender, but is not man-aligned or miaspec, and has no connection to manhood.

The word proxvir is used as an adjective, in the same way male and female are used, so one would say "I am proxvir" not "I am a proxvir".

The feminine equivalent to proxvir is juxera.

Etymology
Prox- comes from “proximus”, a Latin adjective meaning 'near', -vir is from a masculine Latin noun.
