'''Aporagender''' is a [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] gender, or group of genders, defined as being separate from [[Man|male]], [[Woman|female]], and anything in between, while still being a strong and specific gendered feeling. Aporagender people are not a combination of male and female ([[androgyne]]), and still have a strong gendered feeling |

Aporagender can be used as an umbrella term or as a gender on its own. Aporagender can sometimes be a synonym of neutrois, depending on the definition of neutrois used. It is very similar to [[abinary]], and all aporagenders are inherently abinary, however aporagenders are also very commonly [[atrinary]] (but do not have to be). [[Maverique]] is a well known example of an aporagender. |

An alternate aporagender was designed by Mod Lune on the Tumblr blog wedontcareaboutyourbinary on July 3, 2018.<ref>https://wedontcareaboutyourbinary.tumblr.com/post/175489605783/aporagender-flag-suggestion-its-recently-come-to</ref> They were dissatisfied with how strongly the original flag focuses on the binary gender and “betweenness”. Yellow and green were choosen as they are strongly associated with non-binary identities that are completely separate from a female/male (pink/blue) point of reference. Teal represents aporagender identities that may seem similar to maleness/masculinity or femaleness/femininity, but are distinctly their own separate gender feelings. The black diagonal stripe is in opposition to white, which frequently references lack, absence or void. Black represents the presence of a specific gender feeling. Its diagonal orientation refers to the existence of these genders on a plane completely distinct from the binary. |
