The traditional gender spectrum (itself an extension of the limiting gender binary) is linear (1-D), from 100% male to 100% female, with various states of androgyny in between. A continuum is multidimensional, allowing third gender, fourth gender, fifth gender, agender or genderless, as well as many other possibilities and combinations, thus much more accurately reflecting the true diversity of human genders.
