Advocates of postgenderism argue that the presence of [[gender roles]], [[social stratification]], and gender differences is generally to the detriment of individuals and society. Given the radical potential for advanced assistive reproductive options, postgenderists believe that sex for [[sexual reproduction|reproductive]] purposes will either become obsolete or that all post-gendered humans will have the ability, if they so choose, to both carry a pregnancy to term ''and'' impregnate someone, which, postgenderists believe, would have the effect of eliminating the need for definite genders in such a society.{{cn|date=June 2025}} |

Postgenderism as a cultural phenomenon has roots in [[feminism]], [[masculism]], along with the [[androgyny]], [[metrosexual]]/[[technosexual]] and [[transgender]] movements. However, it has been through the application of [[transhumanism|transhumanist]] philosophy that postgenderists have conceived the potential for actual morphological changes to the members of the human species and how future humans in a postgender society will reproduce. In this sense, it is an offshoot of transhumanism, [[posthumanism]],{{Cite journal |last=Ferrando |first=Francesca |year=2014 |title=Is the Post-Human a Post-Woman?
