 The only reason why words like masculine or feminine "make sense" to us is because we have been socialized since birth to recognize masculinity and femininity. If you were to actually stop and try to explain exactly what masculinity or femininity is, you'd find that you can only describe them through metaphor and abstract qualities, just like how xenogenders are described.
+===As someone with [insert disorder/neurodivergency here], [insert neurogender here] offends me.===
+Neurogenders are NOT [insert disorder here] ''as'' a gender. It is a gender AFFECTED by said disorder/neurodivergency, or only able to be understood in the context of neurodivergency.
+Not everybody with a neurodivergency identifies with a neurogender. Just because you have [insert disorder here] does NOT mean you are [insert neurogender here], and you are in no way being forced to identify as it.
+Neurogenders are used to say that ones experience with [insert disorder here] it AFFECTS their gender, or their experience with gender.
+It is not "glorifying" or "downplaying" [insert disorder here]. Recognizing that one's gender is affected by something doesn't mean that it's "glorifying" it.

+* Someone may feel apathetic about their gender because they have a disorder that makes them feel apathetic about many things.
+* Someone who is unable to define their gender due to mental exhaustion caused by [insert disorder here].
