'''Cryptidgender''' is a [[xenogender]] [[identity]] in which one's [[gender]] is heavily associated, related, and/or connected with cryptids in some way(s).<ref name="f" /> This may be cryptids in general or a specific cryptid(s). There are multiple further definitions:

#One's gender has a strong connection to cryptids, nature, and mystery. It is often, almost exclusively, used by those who have a disconnect from humanity/being human.<ref name="b" />
#One's gender feels mysterious, obscured, hidden, as well as dark, lonely, and intangible. It feels nonhuman (although it may be humaniod or human-like), like it can only be seen on rare occasions, and like it may or may not be real. It gives the person a feeling of constantly searching for it, as if they are trying to prove it's real.<ref name="c" />
#One's gender, in addition to being related to cryptids, feels supernatural, confusing, and out of this world. may also feel a connection to certain cryptids (example: mothman, bigfoot, etc).<ref name="d" />
#One's gender feels cryptic, supernatural, unexplainable, mysterious, obscured, intangible and unknown to oneself and/or others. It gives the user a sense of constantly searching for it. It may also feel nonhuman.<ref name="e" />

One can use any combination of these definitions, or just the base definition of being related to cryptids. It is not inherently [[masculine]] or [[feminine]], but can be aligned (or combined) with any other gender(s).
