{{Main|Postgenderism}}
Gender neutrality or "gender transcendence" is part of the [[transhumanist]] concept of [[postgenderism]], which is defined as the movement to erode the cultural, biological, psychological, and social role of gender within society.

Advocates of postgenderism argue that the presence of [[gender roles]], [[social stratification]], and [[gender differences|cogno-physical disparities and differences]] are 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.<ref name="Dvorsky 2008">{{cite journal|author = Dvorsky, George|title=Postgenderism: Beyond the Gender Binary|year=2008|url=http://sentientdevelopments.blogspot.com/2008/03/postgenderism-beyond-gender-binary.html|access-date=13 April 2008|author-link=George Dvorsky}}</ref>

From a transhumanist perspective, a shift in gender neutrality is seen as a direct result of the movement of postgenderism.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://ieet.org/index.php/IEET2/print/8306|title=Posthuman Gender: A Non-Binary Future|website=ieet.org|access-date=3 April 2019|archive-date=3 April 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190403005012/https://ieet.org/index.php/IEET2/print/8306|url-status=dead}}</ref> Along with gender fluidity and postgenderism, gender neutrality would be a contributor if a movement of [[transhumanism]] were to occur. Given that an individual's phenotype serves as the primary basis for gender classification, transhumanism would erode the binary division of gender, allowing for gender neutrality within future societies.
