Agender Pride: 10 Agender-Affirming Authors, Companies, and Artists to Follow

As first reported by them., “agender” refers to people who don’t identify themselves with any particular gender. This can mean being genderless, lacking gender, or having a null gender. However, people also use “agender” to mean identifying as gender-neutral or having an undefinable gender.

The first documented use of the word “agender” was on the Internet––born in 2000, on an Internet forum called UseNet. In a chat room discussion entitled alt.messianic, a user posted the following: “God is amorphous, agender, […] so image can’t be a physical or gender or sexual thing.”

In celebration of Agender Pride Day, here are some people and companies celebrating and embracing their identities, just as they are.
