A zigbot is anyone that identifies as a zigbot. You just know you're one.

You googled it, didn't you Eresh. Got a proper definition. Not a woke one.

Apparently Ambonese is a person from the Ambon islands in Indonesia

In case you want to get yourself a flag for your bedroom...

I don't know what ambonese is. I'm not ashamed to admit this.

But it is "synonymous with schrodigender". So everyday's a school day. Clear? No, me neither.

WTF is "ambonese"? Ambos is "both" in Spanish.. aren't these just more yooneeq ways of saying that you're "genderfluid"?

Glinner has a great list of available genders on his Twitter stream. I'm really tempted by several.

You could be this, OP. Apparently this is not a parody.

I know. It looks like a parody.

So the word you are looking for is woman (XX chromosomes).

Why do you need a gender at all? Anyway you have already said your gender is zigbot.

BigChocFrenzy · 29/03/2019 00:00

As a zigbot, are you cousin to the Maybot, or has she been expelled from the bot species ?

ErrolTheDragon · 29/03/2019 00:00

You're just fine without a gender.
And there is a word, woman. It still means 'adult human female'. No-one has meaningfully redefined it.

As a 40-something housewife/mum, can I identify back to the cool student I was back in the early 90s?

I had a lot more fun then, and did a lot less mopping up of children & pets.

BolloxtoGender · 28/03/2019 23:57

??

So that's a good thing or bad thing?

Yes, this has turned out shitter than I planned.

But I do need a gender.

In fact, all I want is a word for people with XX chromosomes. There isn't one currently...

It this type of shit thread which loses any real point that may need making.

I should probably add, I am gender critical, middle-aged, and XX...

However, if we do adopt the brave new world of gender identity, then I need to find me a gender!

However, if you're a 40-something housewife, then you are most likely incapable of truly understanding gender and are probably just a cs-woman.

I was identifying as a 50-something academic in my previous post, does your answer still apply?

ToeToToe · 28/03/2019 23:54

Did zigbots have skeletons prior to the Renaissance?

BolloxtoGender · 28/03/2019 23:53

That is clearly the case.

Bit of a leap to extend it to all people.

@bollox

If that's the case, then surely that's the case for all genders?

OP posts:
BolloxtoGender · 28/03/2019 23:50

I see that your gender expresses itself as ageist, and misogynist.

@werise

Zigbots are people who feel like they are a zigbot. Simples.

@BolloxtoGender

It's late @Lees....I know...

Describe the characteristics of zigbot gendered 'people' (am I allowed to use the word people or is that literal violence towards zigbotgenders?)?
