Gendercanon
when one allows others to “headcanon” oneself in terms of gender
Gendercanon flag:
Gendercanon (also called canongender, headcanongender, or HCgender) is a term for those who don’t subscribe to the concept of gender or otherwise feel a lack of gender and allow others to decide what gender to view them as. The term is not specific to any gender modality and can either be used on its own or alongside other labels.
Essentially, if a gendercanon individual is seen as a girl, they are a girl. If they are seen as non-binary, they are non-binary. If they are asked what their gender is, they might say they don’t know, use their AGAB, or say something along the lines of “whatever you see me as.”
Pronouncanon or canonpronominal can be used to describe those who allow others to "headcanon” them in terms of pronouns. In other words, they allow others to decide which pronouns to use for them and hold little to no preference.
