 The term “pomogender” first appeared in 2013 on an [[Asexual]] Visibility and Education Network (AVEN) forum.<ref>[https://archive.is/1maUE Archived AVEN forum discussion on pomogender.]</ref> The term was likened to [[pomosexual]] but for gender.
-''Pomo'' is an abbreviation of “postmodern.” Having a postmodern understanding of gender is typically academic. Since the 1990s, postmodern gender theorists have defined gender as a speech act, something spoken into existence that is dependent on the words used and refine by how words are used.<ref>[https://www.google.com/books/edition/Bodies_that_Matter/ZqiIgwQiyFYC?hl=en ''Bodies That Matter: On the Discursive Limits of Sex'', Judith Butler, Routledge.]</ref> Pomogender people may not be able to conceptualize gender or have a concept of gender that is not available or meaningful in current gendered language.

 Unlike [[genderpunk]] and [[Gender Nihilism|gender nihilism]], pomogender does not inherently refer to resisting the modern construction of gender or wanting to get rid of gender but instead feeling beyond or past gender for the sake of being human.<ref>[https://archive.is/1maUEArchived Archived AVEN forum discussion (again).]</ref>
