Hi, Gmwalker! It's Morgan. I'm just practicing my editing skills by introducing myself on your Talk page. My favorite color is yellow, I love Italian food, and a personal goal of mine is to learn how to do a back handspring. I hope we both get the hang of this Wiki-ing soon! Feel free to write on my Talk page, too! Happy editing! --Mmoore122 (talk) 19:20, 27 August 2016 (UTC)

This article is about pangender, a non- binary gender meaning “all genders”. [1]

Pangender is a recently acknowledged non- binary gender which is defined as including all genders and not being exclusively male or female.[2] Pangender is also referred to as “third gender or bigender”.[3] Gender is one’s internal feelings and external appearance and behavior.[4] The prefix pan is Greek and means, “including all”.[5] Pangender individuals may identify with gender inclusive or gender neutral pronouns (zie/zim) instead of (she/he, her/him). Being pangender is a part of one’s identity. It is not a mental illness.[6] Calling one by the wrong pronouns can make one feel invisible[7] or invalidated.[8] Anyone can show support for non- binary genders.
