Genderescape

Genderescape, escapegender, or elusgender, is when one's gender is elusive in nature. Someone who is genderescape can easily understand their gender when they don't think much about it. However, when they try to explore or label their gender, their gender becomes vague and confusing.

Genderescape individuals may know their experienced gender, but the more effort they put into thinking about gender, the more it eludes or escapes them. While thinking about their gender they may feel genderless, or like their gender is foreign or unnatural. If enough time is spent not thinking about their gender, it may revert into an gender identity they can understand.

Some genderescape individuals only struggle with their gender when they think about their gender. Others can also struggle when thinking about the genders of others, or gender in general.

This can be used as an identity on its own, or be used with another identity. For example, boyescape or genderfluidescape.

Genderescape may be described as a form of genderflux where one's gender flucctuates from gendered to genderless when they think about their gender. It may also be considered a form of genderfluid where one's gender changes from recognizable to foreign or unnatural when they think about their gender.

The opposite of genderescape is filogender.
