1. Strange neologism with no science to back it up. If we take the description "genders which aren't accurately described by a 'human' understanding of gender" and replace "gender" with "science", we get a description of pseudoscience. If I go here I read things like "Having a gender which is bright, celestial, and radial." wut?! Carpetsmoker (talk) 13:07, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

   Pseudoscience is within our missions, yeah? Wẽãšẽĩõĩď^{Methinks it is a Weasel} 15:04, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

   Well, my point was more that this is a bunch of nonsense, rather than a serious thing that this page tried to sell. Carpetsmoker (talk) 00:21, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

2. Delete: within mission but not widespread nor likely to ever be. Take a look at [1] to see where this is leading. Bongolian (talk) 18:55, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

Keep

1. Keep it as a separate concept. Merging it with non-binary genders is a bad idea since it seems to include otherkin and other odd neoglisms which could stigmatize the idea of non-binary genders.--Owlman (talk) 18:42, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

   If it goes there, it won't be taken straight, but as a claimed thing with no scientific support. Bicycle^wheel 19:13, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

6. What Bicycle, Hertzy, Fuzzy and Ray said. It's forward again [because no two of us have done it!] Anyhoo, merge and can describe as pseudoscience in context of other stuff that's not.---Mona- (talk) 19:00, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

• How widespread is this phrase? If it's just something a handle of Tumblr users use I think a passing mention in our non-binary gender article is probably all that's needed. Щєазєюіδ^{Methinks it is a Weasel} 15:10, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
