#autogender

Here is a great explanation of egogender and here is one for autogender. Both are stated to be without external governance, uninfluenced by societal expectations of gender. Egogender is entirely individualized to the point where no two people have the same experience (Egogender is also called [name]gender so if that were me, it'd be "Alexgender" and it would be entirely my own gender.) Autogender doesn't follow this pattern and is said to be difficult to describe using any other gender terms.

Maverique, by comparison, is a specific named gender that has the features of terms like egogender and autogender (gender autonomy, predominantly.) Maverique is also specifically not male, female, androgynous, or neutral while ego/autogender don't tend to specify this (though egogender is stated to be outside the binary.)

There's certainly a lot of overlap in gendered aspects and qualities, but maverique is specific and based on inner conviction ("I am specifically not any of these other things and instead, my gender stands on its own.")

i don't think i'll add it to my labels, but it definitely is sort of how i feel sometimes

Egogender or Charagender: A gender identity that feels unique to the person who is experiencing it, based on their own identity as a person. Can be defined as being “me-gender,” a gender identity that is intensely personal and belongs solely to that person.

Autogender: A gender experience that feels deeply personal to oneself but it too difficult to accurately describe with any other gender terms.
