what are they?
Xenoidentities are identities based off things you connect to. They include interests (such as a band), tropes, animals- pretty much anything!
These were created because Xenogenders are harmful, and gender is hardwired into your brain. (more here)
Xenoidentities are just modifiers that you can use for comfort or- well- just for fun. They aren't connected to gender or being LGBT+ in any way.
This way, people can still express themselves while NOT trying to claim that it is the same as a neurological condition (gender dysphoria).
The main difference between Xenoidentities and Xenogenders is that Xenoidentities don’t have anything to do with gender. Xenoidentities are not inherently LGBT. Otherwise, they’re very similar. Xenoids are just less harmful and don't speak over transsex people's voices.
why are xenogenders harmful?
xenogenders are harmful because they enforce that gender = gender roles.
gender is based off brain sex. it is neurological and cannot be changed. xenogenders aren't related to brain sex, therefore they cannot be genders. being transgender should remain medical so that we (trans people) can get the healthcare we need for our dysphoria.
