Erenth: a term describing one who does not participate in the concept of gender, instead embracing the self-hood that proceeds the construct unencumbered.
[PT: Erenth: a term describing one who does not participate in the concept of gender, instead embracing the self-hood that proceeds the construct unencumbered. ./. END PT]
Etymology
[PT: Etymology ./. END PT]
"Ere", from Early Modern English, meaning "Before" + "-nth" from English, meaning "an unspecified/indefinitely large ordinal number".
Here, "before" refers to the intrinsic self that exists free of gender, a state that has not yet been evaluated or considered within the construct. "Ere" was chosen to represent existing outside the gender paradigm, much like "Ere" belongs to an earlier stage English. "Nth" is used as a suffix, but it refers to the infinitely large, variable, complex, convoluted, nebulous nature of gender identity.
Erenth was coined by Gent (Gender-Jargon) in April 2024.
Elaboration
[PT: Elaboration ./. END PT]
Erenth is not a gender identity, but rather a label used to describe individuals whose selfhood does not involve the construct of gender, identifying with a personal, individual albeit degendered selfhood instead. As such, an Erenth:
Does not have a gender identity in any way, shape or form.
Doesn't align themselves with any gender (unaligned).
Does not have a gender identity to conform to, bend or subvert.
May embody gendered roles without consideration to the concept of gender or may reject them all together.
Does not have a gender to express, thus lacking a gender expression.
Presents themselves without consideration to the concept of gender, instead seeking to make their presentation harmonious and congruent with their sense of self.
Uses (self-)referential language without consideration to the concept of gender, using whatever language they see fit.
In lacking a gender identity, likely do not self-describe using GLG orientations.
May have an internalized self-concept of sex that is degendered or may reject sex altogether.
May reject, eschew, subvert, ignore, transcend, be liberated from, be apathetic towards, be oblivious to or hold any stance, perspective or experience regarding the concept of gender that results in non-participation in the construct.
May or may not identify as Queer.
Is simply themselves, embodying the answer to the question, "Who Am I?" while also discarding the construct of gender entirely from the question.

Some similar labels include:
Egogender
[PT: Egogender ./. END PT]
Both Egogender and Erenth individuals identify with an unique and individualistic sense of self, but differ in that the Erenth label is not a gender and does not participate in the construct.
Exogender
[PT: Exogender ./. END PT]
Both Exogender and Erenth individuals do not participate in the construct of gender, thus lacking a gender identity, but differ in that the Erenth label specifies an unique, individual sense of self one embraces entirely independent of the construct of gender identity. Exogender, while not truly being a gender identity by it's definition, attempts to fill the lexical gap by relating to the construct, where the Erenth label does not participate in it explicitly and outright.
Apogender
[PT: Apogender. ./. END PT]
Both Apogender and the Erenth label involve being divorced from the concept of gender, but differ in that Apogender is an Agender microlabel, whereas Erenth is not a gender identity and involves embracing the self.
Pomogender
[PT: Pomogender ./. END PT]
Both Pomogender and the Erenth label involve denying preexisting gender labels, but differ in that Erenth is not a gender identity, denies the entirety of the construct of gender and embraces a unique, individual sense of self outside of gender.
Cassgender
[PT: Cassgender ./. END PT]
Both Cassgender and the Erenth label may involve feeling indifferent towards the concept of gender, but differ in that Cassgender is a gender identity whereas the Erenth is not a gender identity, does not participate in the construct and specifically involves embracing a unique, individual sense of self outside of gender.
Yonderi
[PT: Yonderi ./. END PT]
Both Yonderi and Erenth are labels describing transcending gender, but differ in that the Erenth label also does not participate in or internalize the construct while also specifically embracing a unique, individual sense of self outside of gender. Erenth can be considered to have a yonderine quality, but doesn't have to.
Genderfree
[PT: Genderfree ./. END PT]
Both Genderfree and the Erenth label both refer to an undefined state where gender is not present, but unlike Genderfree, Erenth rejects the construct of gender in it's entirety, is not an ambiguous identity nor is it definitively queer in itself. Furthermore, an Erenth individual's identity is related to their sense of self, which is not specified by the label genderfree.
Pride Flag
[PT: Pride Flag ./. END PT]
The flag was created by myself (Gent, GJ) at the same time as the term. The flag has nine horizontal stripes of the same size. From top to bottom, the stripes are dark grey, peach, dark red, cream, desaturated light green, cream, dark red, peach and dark grey. The stripes have the following meanings:
The bottom and top dark grey stripes represent the lack of internalization of gender.
The two peach stripes represents complete non-participation in the construct of gender.
The two dark red stripes represents knowledge and conviction.
The two cream stripes represent one's values and ideals.
The middle desaturated light green stripe represents one's inner sense of self.

I also created a simplified, five-stripe version using the same colors and meaning as the nine-stripe flag. The simplified flag has five horizontal stripes of the same size. From top to bottom, they are dark grey, peach, dark red, cream and desaturated light green.
Glyph
[PT: Glyph ./. END PT]
As Erenth is not a gender, it does not have a planetary glyph associated with it. Instead, the Erenth identity is represented by the typographical obelus, styled as a double dagger mark, U+2021 (‡). The obelus represents, "an iron roasting spit, a dart, or the sharp end of a javelin, symbolizing the skewering or cutting out of dubious matter. (Wikipedia)", which is similar to the manner in which an Erenth individual embraces their selfhood (separated from gender), but not the construct of gender (the dubious matter). The double dagger mark was specified to represent a coupled rejection of gender and acceptance of the self.

Grisha's story begins with one of the most traumatic events in his life, in the Year 817. He, as an eleven-year-old boy, goes for a walk with his sister Faye through Liberio, his city. Both wore bands on their arms that identified them as Eldians and their mother warned them not to cross the wall for any reason. Ignoring his mother's instructions, he takes his sister outside the walls after seeing an airship and hearing Faye's desire for one of her own. However, they encounter two of Marley's soldiers, Kruger and Gross, who ask him for the permission they needed to leave Liberius. Getting no response, Kruger beats Grisha badly and Gross takes Faye back home while he is allowed to stay and watch the blimp. When he returns, Grisha faces a stark reality: her sister never returned and was found dead in the town's river. Regardless of her complaints, her father agrees with Gross who claims not to have harmed Faye. On his orders, Mr. Jaeger tells her the story of the conflict between Marley and Eldia, the latter being the ones who committed huge atrocities against their enemies. Grisha never comes to understand why they should pay for the actions of their ancestors.
When Grisha Jeager turns 18 in the Year 824, he inherits his father's clinic. One day, a man named Grice comes to his office and tells him the truth of what happened that day: Faye was killed by the security authorities. He then recruits Grisha for the resistance called the "Eldia Restorers". Inside this cult, he reads Ymir Fritz's story about how he used the titan power to improve the lives of the Eldians, but Marley took up arms and seized some titan powers. Some of his people escaped with the titan powers to Paradis Island, where they were enclosed with huge walls while the other half stayed behind. Although he did not understand very well all the conflict of the titans, he decides to swear loyalty to his mission. There he discovers that the resistance had a spy named "The Owl" within Marley's ranks, who sends a new member claiming to have royal blood: Dina Fritz. She informs the resistance that her family had the power of the Founder Titan on Paradis Island, and Grisha promises to return that power to the Eldians who stayed to fight against Marley.
Dina and Grisha marry, only to have a son soon after, whom they name Zeke. Some years later, they take a photograph together and that same year the Marley government announces that King Fritz has declared war on them, so they would recruit Eldian children to obtain the Titanic powers, being recognized as "honorable citizens of Marley". Grisha sees the opportunity to regain the power of the Founder Titan if Zeke obtains one of the titan powers, so he begins to pressure his son to become a warrior, instilling in him his radical thoughts about Eldia and handing him over to the Marley authorities.
To his surprise, his son, when he turns 7 years old, betrays his parents and the entire resistance. The "Restorers of Eldia" are condemned to wander around Paradis Island transformed into titans, but first Grisha is tortured to find out the identity of "The Owl", but they do not manage to get any information out of him.
All the rebels are transformed into titans at the border with Paradis, but before Grisha is thrown to be devoured, Eren Kruger reveals himself as "The Owl" and transforms himself into the Attack Titan, eliminating all Marley's soldiers and breaking the ship with which they had arrived there. The two discuss the mission to retrieve the Founder Titan, and Kruger reveals to Grisha that a person can only have a titan power for a maximum of 13 years, otherwise he would die. Finally, he transforms Grisha into a normal titan and he devours Kruger, completing the transfer of his power.
After that, he reaches the walls and is found by Keith Shadis, who imprisons him inside Shiganshina for committing the crime of going outside the walls. Grisha only says in the interrogation that he suffers from amnesia, remembering only his knowledge of medicine and his name. Upon his release, Keith takes him to a bar to tell him all about the workings of society within the walls.
It is here that he meets Carla for the first time, as she was working as a waitress. Some time later, a disease ravaged the district and Grisha, making use of her medical knowledge, creates an antidote that saves hundreds of people. Carla thanks him personally for this, as he saved her relatives and soon after they develop an intense romance.
The two get married and have a son they named Eren.
This image, I have seen it a thousand times. They describe this odyssey of history. The first man is Eren Jegaer. The man on the ground is Geisha Jaeger and the last one is Eren Kruger.
