Distaregender



Distaregender is when one feels like their gender is distant, far away, hidden, buried, or generally disconnected from oneself in a way that one can't properly feel or appreciate it.

One may or may not vaguely feel their gender, or feel an unexplainable connection to a gender, but they can't feel any details or characteristics of it.

Some distaregender experiences may include:


 * Feeling like one's gender is out of reach.


 * Feeling like the gender is in the dark.


 * Feeling a disconnection from one's gender.


 * Knowing that one is feeling a gender, but being unsure of what the gender is like.


 * Feeling like one's gender is hard to see.


 * Feeling like there's a barrier between one and their gender.


 * Feeling like one can't see or feel their gender's details.


 * Feeling like one's gender is hiding from them.


 * Feeling like one's gender is buried deep inside themself or their identity.


 * Feeling like one's gender is obscured.

One may identify solely as distaregender, or combine it with other terms (like distaregirl)
