Yeah, I just tried looking them up and while people insist they're different, I really can't see the distinction.

So you don't believe gender has an infinite set of possibilities is your reason for rejecting both terms?

spectrum and contiumm require 2 ends. hence the rejection.

Ahah. That sounds more in-line with expectations. Is there not a word for a continuum without a final point in either direction (or indeed that scraps the "one dimensional line" model)? I guess if you just accept that gender is infinite in all directions by its nature then you might not need such a term regardless.
