monogendered
Language: English
Part of speech: adj
Etymology: From mono- (prefix meaning ‘one’) + gendered.
Senses: examples: text: Feminist utopias in particular are uniquely indeterminate, because their alternative spaces rely on fantastic biological transformations of gender, resulting in monogendered and androgynous societies.
ref: 1990, Jean Pfaelzer, “Response: What Happened to History?”, in Feminism, Utopia, and Narrative, 1st edition, Knoxville: University of Tennessee Press, →ISBN, →ISSN, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 197:
text: The marxian legacy in critical pedagogy goes unchallenged on questions of gender. The paternal signifiers of labor, alienation, and the monogendered class dynamic of historical materialism remain taken-for-granted universals. The Marxist theoretical totalization of history in forms of male domination reducible to waged labor in historical modes of production evades the problematic of domination in gender relations.

text: Liara: Although we seek to understand other species, it seems few of them seek to understand us. The galaxy is filled with rumors and misinformation about my people.

Liara: Most of the inaccuracies are centered around our mating rituals. My species is mono-gendered. "Male" and "female" have no real meaning for us.
Liara: We still require a partner to reproduce. This second parent, however, may be of any species and any gender.
ref: 2008, BioWare, Mass Effect (Science Fiction), Redwood City: Electronic Arts, →ISBN, →OCLC, PC, scene: Normandy SR-1:
text: Artificial intelligence in the Mass Effect universe does not mimic humanity like Fallout 4’s synths. Instead, the Geth are another alien race, just a synthetic one, created by the Quarians. In the Mass Effect universe, consciousness has multiple realisability: it's realised in humans, the mono-gendered Asari, the jellyfish-like Hanar, the dual-hearted Krogan and — if you believe that a machine can be conscious — the robotic Geth.
ref: 2017, Jordan Erica Webber, Daniel Griliopoulos, “Philosophy of mind”, in Ten Things Video Games can Teach Us, Little, Brown Book Group, →ISBN, →OCLC, page 110:
text: Ursula K. Le Guin’s The Left Hand of Darkness explores a mono-gendered alien culture with tact and nuance. In one scene a human, Genly Ai, and a monogendered Gethian, Estraven, discuss the differences between their cultures. “Ai brooded, and after some time he said, ‘You’re isolated, and undivided. Perhaps you are as obsessed with wholeness as we are with dualism.’”
Estraven replies, “‘We are dualists too. Duality is an essential, isn’t it? So long as there is myself and the other.’” In other words, for the Gethians, otherness comes not from inherent sexual or racial difference, but in the inherent distance between two aware beings.

But that is not much true in Holland. Pigmeat is called pigmeat, cowmeat is called cowmeat. (except that the dutch word koe is female, and the meat-word is for the genderless title). And so on. Of course, there are meats that are not named after the animal, because the preparation is also important (I think that's it).
