'''Obscurian''' is an umbrella term for genders that are unable to be named, quantified, understood, explained, and/or determined. Obscurian is not to be confused with [[questioning]], as a questioning person may end up having an understandable and explainable gender, and obscurian may be used as a permanent label. It is under the [[kenochoric]] umbrella. |
