Technogender (umbrella term)

Name(s) and Definition(s)

Technogender is an umbrella term defined as "when you may or may not have gendered feelings, but either way you feel a stronger connection with technology as part of your gender experience than you do with any other existing genders
can be used as a standalone term (“I am technogender”), as a prefix (technoboy, technogirl, technoenby, etc), or as an additive on another gender experience even (“ai is a technogender demiboy”)
(and maybe use a hollowed out version of the USB trident in place of the mars or venus or whatever symbols?)
i coined this with my fellow techkin in mind but if it fits you and you’re not, you’re still welcome to use it,"1

It was redefined as "technogender means feeling a strong connection with technology as part of your gender experience. it can be used as a standalone term (“I am technogender”), as a prefix (technoboy, technogirl, technononbinary, etc.), or as an adjective (ex: technogender demiboy)."2

It was redefined again as "a xenogender in which someone feels their gender is connected to some form of technology. It may be used as an umbrella term, or as someone's gender entirely."3

It was redefined a third time as "a xenogender in which someone feels their gender is connected to some form of technology. It may be used as an umbrella term, or as someone's gender entirely. Other definitions may include, "Described as one who is only comfortable with one’s own gender when using technology, usually because of social anxiety." Not to be confused with Technogender (Music)."4
