Altegender

Not to be confused with altergender or altgender

Altegender is a xenogender that feels distant, as though it is in a parallel dimension, on a different plane, in a mirror universe, or in an alternate existence. It can be combined with other genders to form more specific genders, such as altegirl, alteboy, or altenonbinary.

Etymology
The term is derived from shortening the phrase “alternate existence,” with -gender added as the suffix.

Flags
The shapes represent the different planes of existence, with the transparency representing the blurriness of the gender. The red for the altegender flag was a general color choice, and represents nothing in particular. The subset flags use colors from the identity they're combined with, keeping the associated color meanings.
