Compelecci is a xenogender that is related to computers and electricity/electromagnetism. One may view their gender as a computer program powered via the electricity, or may view themselves as the electricity travelling through the cables and circuit boards. This gender can feel warm and smooth, or cold and spiky depending on the intensity, and is not bound to masculine, feminine or neutral gender alignments.
Those who identify with this gender may use it alongside other gender identities, or as a standalone.
Flags
The colours used do not have individual meanings, however the use of warm colours (pink, orange, yellow) symbolizes how the gender might flow smoothly - where the negative and positive charges are balanced, and the cold colours (purple, blue) symbolize how the gender may shift about from place to place, similar to static electricity - where the negative and positive charges are imbalanced.
White and black are used to symbolize those whose gender encompasses multiple gender presentations or gender identities, or no gender presentations/gender identities, respectively.
The electricity/lightning bolt image present in the flag is used to represent the connection to electricity and electromagnetism, as well as computers or technology.
History
Both the label and the flag were created by an anonymous Discord user[1] on 29th May 2022, and later posted publicly by Tumblr user prof-mono[2] on 14th August 2022, alongside an additional flag.
