Pangender
Pangender
Pangender is a multigender non-binary gender identity that refers to experiencing a vast and diverse multiplicity of genders within one's own culture and life experience. A pangender person may have an ever-changing gender identity or feel that they have one all-encompassing gender identity that remains static. Being pangender means feeling an entire infinite gender spectrum that is possible for an individual to have, which may extend beyond the current knowledge of genders. Pangender individuals can also experience gender fluidity, genderflux, or other non-binary gender identities.
Being pangender does not require knowing everything about all established genders, but rather the recognition of countless genders within oneself.

Pronouns
Like with omnigender, people who identify as pangender may use a variety of pronouns, depending on their individual gender expression and how they feel at any given time. Some pangender people may use she/her/hers or he/him/his pronouns, depending on whether they are expressing a feminine or masculine gender at a given time. Others may use they/them/theirs pronouns as a gender-neutral option that can be used regardless of their gender expression. Some pangender people may also use neopronouns such as xe/xem/xyr or other neopronouns that feel more comfortable and affirming to them. It's important to respect and use the pronouns that a person has specified for themselves, as misgendering can be hurtful and invalidate a person's identity. If you're unsure of a person's pronouns, it's always best to ask them for their preferred pronouns.

Gender Types
Gender identity is a deeply personal and complex aspect of a person's identity, and it can vary widely from person to person. Some people identify as male, some as female, while others identify as non-binary, genderqueer, or another gender identity.
Gender identity refers to a person's internal sense of their own gender, which may or may not align with the sex they were assigned at birth. In other words, it is a person's subjective experience of their own gender.
Identity & expression
It's important to note that gender identity is not the same as biological sex, which is typically assigned at birth based on physical characteristics. Gender identity is also distinct from gender expression, which refers to how a person presents their gender to the world through clothing, hairstyle, behavior, and other factors.
Respect
It's important to respect and validate each individual's gender identity, regardless of how it may differ from societal expectations or traditional notions of gender. People should be able to express their gender identity in a way that feels authentic to them and should be able to access the rights and protections they need to live fulfilling lives.
