Another flag was created under an alternative definition by Twitter user adokaoz on July 3rd, 2020. The user described the gender as being for those who felt a strong connection to sharks and claimed it was preferred that neurodivergent individuals use it over neurotypical individuals (though also stated that any may use it). The user claimed to be aware that sharkgender had already been coined.<ref>[https://mobile.twitter.com/adokaoz/status/1279263614738677760?lang=en The recoining of sharkgender by adokaoz]</ref> |
