Quoigenic is an origin term that means the user does not want to share their origins, does not think it's relevant, or thinks it's the wrong question to ask.

It's derived from the French word "quoi", which approximately means "what".

History

Quoigenic originated from a series of Tumblr posts from 2014; notably, this post by Collective Solipsism. The definition was further cemented in this response to an ask on lizardywizard's blog.
