Fictimascgender: A gender that is only masculine or man/man aligned in the context of being your male kin. When being referred to as their male kin, Fictimascgender people may want to be referred to with masculine terms and he/him pronouns, but any other time will not be masculine.
Fictifemgender
Fictifemgender: A gender that is only feminine or woman/woman aligned in the context of being your female kin. When being referred to as their female kin, Fictifemgender people may want to be referred by feminine terms, and she/her pronouns, but won’t be comfortable with feminine terms or be a female aligned gender in any other context.
Recently, I’ve been thinking a lot about the term futch and how it describes me pretty well identity-wise in that my relationships to the concepts of (queer) masculinity and femininity are…extremely complicated, and I think it’s largely due to the fact that I am both an intersex and a transfem sapphic. So, anyway, I made some self-indulgent flags. Feel free to use them if you also have an extremely complicated relationship to masculinity and femininity, gender identity/expression/presentation, or same/similar-gender attraction due to being trans and/or intersex (or identify as futch for any other reason).
Trans futch
Transfem futch
Transmasc futch
Intersex futch
Hey, OP! Is there a transneutral one? The term doesn’t fit me, I just like to see that good ‘ole transneutral representation. ^^
An identity describing a femme butch. Similar terms include kiki, bemme and bluff (butch fluff).
Combining thesebutch & femme flags colors, this time with five stripes instead of seven, not resembling the lipstick lesbian/leather/bear flag iterations.

Paratrois: standing outside or as a midpoint in between supratrois and infratrois; an intersection of subtrois and obtrois; a paranormalized leptivity; the reverse of normotrois and indirectly not tied to hypertrois/hipertrois or hypotrois/hipotrois; merging extrois/extratrois/extertrois and introis/intratrois together but not as intertrois/intretrois.
Usually an oblique form of supraverse and own universe, just as an wormhole that leads to other superverses (neoverses, antiverses, and paraverses) but staying as its own form that is not habited in multiverse. If in geometry there’s a plane, this is paralyzed or parallel of its plane and (an)other(s).
Brotherage Pride Flag
Brotherage (broderagem/brotheragem portuguesedly): the platonic version of seks, sometimes extending outside of sectual contexts and standing for brotherly feelings in relationships; the gayn’t form of fagness.
A term cognate of bromance but neolatinized, largely used by gay outsiders in Brazil and even by queer-friendly wokesters as well. So it’s for anyone, literally. Sisteragem is also used for womance.
Gay Brotherhood Pride Flag
This flag is meant to represent the meaning behind brotherhood in bear brotherhood, uniting not only gay bears but also otters, twinks, cubs, wolves, sides, outsiders, and anyone else. You don’t even need slangs to feel represented by this, even gay you can be a queer brother of this community and that’s it.
Not meant to be a general gay man flag, as some are asocial, aplspec or anamical and may be impacted by brotherly and erotoplatonic forms of love. But loveless people are welcomed in using it as there are many struggles in identifying as this and all.
Here are some flag designs, from left to right, for nbwlcw, nbwlcm, nbmlcw, nbmlcm!
Please like/reblog if used!
Transneutral Masc4Masc Pride Flag
Transneutrality: a term used to describe trans* people qualifying and/or quantifying themselves as neutrally gendered feelings, contrasting with other arities. It can be considered a spectrum for transitioning or going through a neutral gender state, alignment, element, or another adjacent subjectivity.
Masc4Masc: ascribing a masculine folk into other masculine people, usually alluding homoeroticism.
Transneutral Cis*Masc4Masc Pride Flag
Cis*: the expansion of cisness, including ciscendental, cisvestic, cisvesti, cisgender, cissex, cissexual, cisvestite, and other coverages/encompassions (umbrella terms).

Gayn’t or gayñ/ñgay: a dharma ideinity; when you don’t experience gayness/gaiety, either psychopolitically/neuropolitically or philosophically or sociopolitically or biopolitically; the state of not being gay.
Erotoplatonic/Erosoplatonic: experiencing both erotic/erosous and platonic forms of attraction as uniquely interlinked.
Similar to queerotic, but not to the point of queerplatonic relationships or another form of amato-amory, while could still being proximate to the conceptualities behind that.
Trans* Homo* Pride Flag
Trans* Homo*: a trans* individual experiencing homo* attraction; a transgender/transsex/transvestic/transformist person that is homo-; reclaiming both transness/transitude/transtude and hetness/heterness/heteritude/hetritude/hetertude/heteroness/hetroness.
Gayhet Pride Flag
Gayhet (Heterogay/Hetrogay): experiencing both gay* and het* attraction(s) towards specific gender(s) or person(s); being gay and het for certain gender(s), simultaneously and/or asynchronously.
This is very encompassing, however I’m choosing these words for my duarigender equarigender experience.
Decrystallizer/Decrystalliser Pride Flag
Decrystallisation/Decrystallization (or decrystalization/decrystalisation): an identifier ascribing someone not involved in identity/identitarian crystallization. An amplex term/amplifier.
Usually, people associated with queer theory tend to crystallize their disidentifications as a way of not identitily flowing/fluctuating, a form of suptilianism/suptilism/suptilicism (specially gender strictism). Other adjectivals: decrystaliser/decrystalizer.
Lealexicon (term discussion)
I’d likely to know how to better define “lealexic(al)”. It’s supposed to be the ambiguation of binary grammatical genders (such as mea and fea). These situations are already encompassed by nea. But this is more specific, it’s like the concepts of gender star (asterisk or underline/underscore), middle point and the @ (at sign) in West Iberian (specially Portuguese/Spanish).
This term was mentioned alluding the word mannlier (combining mann and lier), but as lia. You may say that’s “androgynous”, but I’m not really sure about that playing in semantics/grammar linguistics game.
Outsider Pride Flag
Outsider: being “neither/nor” when it comes to normative taboos and self-centered communities. Therefore, they are NOT centrally “insider”/embedded within the center of either community, standing outside the presupposed default “norm” of variancy.
Strictly Aroace (Aroace Estrite in neolingual Portuguese): experiencing asexual and aromantic spectrums in the black area; suptilic (non-grey/non-amplusic/non-fluid) asexual aromantic; completely null attraction in romantic and sexual orientations, sharing symmetries with suptiliaroace.
Usually null can be divided in infranull and supranull. Nuances are there, you can be asexual while in the grey area. Brazilians have their own concept of asexuality as it inherently includes demisexuality and other grey-asexualities as well as black-asexualities.
We (mod light and ap) created this blog to deal with the submissions sent to BMPF, as we are not admins and Fy doesn’t enter Tumblr since more than a year. So if you submitted something and wasn’t posted there or you wanted to submit, submit here instead.
Binaridissident Pirde Flag
[Image description: 4 stripes of light pale yellow, pear, wine red, and dark indigo. End ID]
Binaridissidence or Binariodissidence (binariodissident): the disidentification towards gender binarity; another term for binaryn’t (not binary).
This includes cis*, trans*, and iso*/meta*/abs* people that deviate the binary.
[Image description: A flag bisected diagonally. The upper/left portion is black, with the constellation symbol for Octans in white. The lower/right portion has nine stripes: four in a gradient from purple to light blue, a white stripe, and four in a gradient from green to yellow. End ID]
Octantic: Feeling/being not only devoid of sex, gender, and orientation, but also removed from those concepts entirely. A combination of apogender, panaspec, and angenital.
Using the symbol for Octans is meant to convey a sense of remoteness, as Octans contains the southern pole star and octants are used for navigation. The symbol also looks like an “A” for “apo-”.
Isotransgender Pride Flag
Transisogender (transiso/isotrans), metrans/metatrans/transmeta (transmetagender/metransgender/metatransgender) or abstransgender/transabsgender (abstrans/transabs): absgender/abs* and trans*/transgender.
Isocis Pride Flag
Isocis* (isocisgender/cisisogender)/Cisiso/Ciso* (cisogender): being both cis* and iso*; isogender and cisgender; metacis (metacisgender/cismetagender)/cismeta; abscisgender (abscis)/cisabs (cisabsgender).
Trisogender Pride Flag
Triso: experiencing cisness, transness and isoness (metaness/absness); cisgender, transgender and isogender (metagender/absgender); cis*, trans*, and iso* (meta*/abs*); cissex, transsex and isosex (metasex/abssex).
Not to be confused with noxis.
Travesti Piá Pride Flag
A combo flag for experiencing both identities. Trapiá or trapyá could be a lialexicon/nialexicon similar to mannlier/manlier (mannlher/manlher). Piavesti/pyavesti is an alternative.
Cupiospec (otherwise known as Affectional Latency)
A flag for people that are under the Cupio Spectrum!
The Cupio Spectrum is for orientations that hold Action without Attraction, or “Aspec through an Allo Lense”. It’s the ‘opposite’ of the Orchid Spectrum.
Cupio- is when an individual doesn’t feel attraction, but feels either the desire or the ability to have a relationship in real life (in simple terms).
It can either be Allo, Aspec, or a whole category of its own, depending on the user*.
Some examples;
Straight men who are either MSM or MDM (Men who have sex with men, and men who date men) [CupioHex]
Straight women who are either WSW or WDW (Women who have sex with women, and women who date women) [CupioHex]
Turians/Veldians who are either MSW or MDW (Men who have sex with women, and men who date women) [CupioGex]
Lesbians who are either WSM or WDM (Women who have sex with men, and women who sate men) [CupioGex]
Asexual people who have sex
Aromantic people who date
*Disclaimer : The Cupio Spectrum is its own spectrum, that can overlap with Allo or Aspec, but doesn’t have to. You can use any spectrum you’d like- Cupio AND Aspec, Cupio AND Allospec, just Cupio, id with different spectrums at different times, or all three together.
And of course, you don’t have to identify with Cupio!
Let’s talk about the popular and sorta controversial gay flag from @gayflagblog, shown below. please check out my sources linked throughout the post for yourself.
The Reason a Flag is Needed In The First Place
The rainbow flag has always been the most popular flag for gay men to signify gay-ness and still is, even though this flag is gaining some popularity. Because of the centring of (cis, white, rich) gay men in general, due to our world’s generally patriarchal modern structure, society’s image of the LGBT+ community, the rainbow flag from 1978 and its new 6 stripe form has often been mistakenly attributed to gay men in particular, despite the rainbow flag being a deliberately inclusive flagthat includes all LGBT+ people. So, for a while, gay men and lesbians didn’t have popular, widely used flags for our specific identities as gay men and lesbians, though more flags started to be popularised for specific identities, such as bisexual, transgender and asexual while previous lesbian and gay male flags hadn’t achieved widespread use. Lesbians and gay men started using the internet to figure out specific identity flags. why? because enough people wanted something more specific.
The Objections
I’m going to go through some reasons that some people have for not only not using this flag, but discouraging its use by other people.
‘‘It’s ugly’‘
I disagree, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. this isnt an actual reason to discourage use of this flag.
people have started making fun of the flag by saying that it looks ‘’like toothpaste’’. I think this is just people who mistakenly believe that this flag has big problems (that im going to debunk in this post) and are making fun of it because of that, rather than the appearance of the flag being their main problem with it.
‘‘it was made by a *insert bad adjective here* person’‘
A lot of people seem to believe that the @gayflagblog flag was ‘’made by a truscum/misogynist/[insert bad adective here’]’. Personally i don’t believe that because a symbol was made by someone you don;t agree with or who has done harm, doesnt mean it is necessarily unusable. I think it should be on a case-by-case basis and based on whether you are actually perpetuating those ideas or providing camouflage for dangerous movements by using the symbol, but lets talk about whether this objection is based in facts.
@gayflagblog is an anonymous account that does not talk about issues that are not to do with the flag, and specifically has made the flag inclusive of all gay men, which makes these accusations factually baseless.
here is why people began believing this.
[ID: gayflagblog flag left, Pride-flags flag right]
A blogger with transmedicalist views, @discourse-king on tumblr (now deactivated) posted the flag that mod Hermy made, and worded the post in a way that made it seem like they had created it. The post got more reach than the original post on Deviantart.
@gayflagblog and mod Hermy are not transmedicalists. discourse-king was a truscum/transmed blog, but they didnt make either flag.
‘‘i dont like that it mainly uses the colour blue because it seems stereotypical’‘
The colour blue is definitely the stereotypical masculine colour. That doesn’t mean that it shouldn’t be used to represent men, however. there are several pride flags that utilise pink and blue to represent men and women, such as the pansexual, bisexual and transgender flags.
[ID: pansexual, bisexual and transgender flags]
It’s understandable to be uncomfortable with the dominance of blue in the standard @gayflagblog flag ,however, there are variations of the flag that have less blue in them.
the presence of blue in the flag is an obvious choice, but the creator could have scaled it back a bit in my opinion.
it’s stolen from the sunset lesbian flag’’
[ID: 7 stripe and 5 stripe gay man and lesbian flags side by side, One lesbian flag is upside down to show different alignments]
This is a very popular reason people have for being uncomfortable with the popular gay male flag. The sunset lesbian flag was proposed in 2018 ,the @gayflagblog flag was posted on tumblr on July 10th 2019. it’s very clear that the creator of the popular gay male flag was inspired by the design of the sunset lesbian flag. But is it a case of copying? is this flag just a ‘’hue shifted lesbian flag’’ as people often say?
this is what happens when you try to make the sunset lesbian flag look like the gay man flag using photshop’s hue shift feature. not only are the colours not the correct luminosity/brightness, they are much less diverse in hue than they need to be. the amounts of the colour spectrum that we label as certain colours like pink, orange, green, purple are not equal in size.
[ID: photoshop colour picker]
as you can see, the size of the ‘’orange’’ part of the spectrum is much smaller than the ‘’blue’’ side of the spectrum. the idea that this flag was created literally by hue shifting is mathematically impossible.
So we know just by looking at it that this flag was inspired by the 2018 sunset lesbian flag, but is it a problem that this gay flag was partly inspired by this lesbian flag? Well, firstly we have to figure out how original the sunset lesbian flag is in the first place, and actually, the origins of this lesbian flag are a lot more gay (of the male variety) than you may expect.
Wow. that’s complicated. I’m sure I left out a lot of history in this chart, but you get the general idea. Gay and lesbian symbols have always been very intertwined, inseparable, it seems.
How do you copy a flag that is a merging of 2 versions of another flag, that was copied from another flag, that was inspired by 2 flags that were inspired by another flag? this isn’t a case of copying, it’s chaotic flag-ception. it’s actually quite beautiful, gay and lesbian communities interacting and making art throughout the years.
We came from the Gilbert Baker rainbow flag, to the Leather and Bear flags, to an obscure flag made by Fausto Fernós, that was turned into a borderline-copied lipstick lesbian flag, that turned into a gay male flag, a general lesbian flag and a butch flag, and those flags were smooshed together into another flag with influence from the trans flag (and I believe the green, grey and black aromantic flag was also an influence but I would have to ask Emily Gwen), and that smooshed together with the gay flag and the other Frankenstein lesbian flag into the gay flag you see at the bottom. Isn’t queer art amazing?
My point here is not to say that copied or heavily inspired flags are a bad thing, though. this is the nature of queer symbols. we arent divided into separate factions who only unite for the occasional issue, we are constantly mixing with each other, because we have similar political needs. A huge amount of us LGBT+ people have gone through multiple labels, personally i have lived as a bisexual girl, a cis lesbian, a nonbinary genderfluid pansexual person with a preference for women, a bisexual/omnisexual trans boy, an abrosexual trans boy, and a genderfluid gay/opalian/technically also bisexual trans man. the categories we have between experiences of gender and sexuality are lines we have drawn, they are not clearly defined and they are not objective, and that’s okay. despite the different words that we use to describe ourselves, we are all impacted by the way the world reacts to our divergence from the most common norms of sexuality, sex, romance and gender.
This isn’t a case of one artist claiming another artist’s work as their own, or maliciously profiting off of another party’s labour, those situations are deceptive and potentially harmful. So where does the idea that because a queer symbol, (something used in a fashion similar to folk songs, where the ownership is communal and the art is always evolving) is inspired or even copied, it is therefore bad, come from?
Capitalism.
The structure of the societies and systems we live in have shaped the way we see the world, and it has happened from such young ages that we haven’t even noticed. we view everything as something that could potentially be commodified for profit. we don’t think of it this way consciously, but the evidence is there in the way we interact with many things, including queer art and queer symbols. I recommend this video from Patricia Taxxon that questions the legal institution of intellectual property, even if you don’t agree with her overall point that the legal institution of intellectual property is a problem, it will still give anyone reading this a critical look at the way we subconsciously think about art.
I guess the bigger point of this post isnt really ‘’stop telling people not to use the blue purple and green gay flag’’, though you really should stop doing that.
It’s this: Let’s de-commodify queerness and de-capitalize our minds.
Didn’t it actually come a year earlier than the modern lesbian flag?
thats the flag from pride-flags on deviantart, not the @gayflagblog flag but yeah it did come out before the sunset lesbian flag.
Obtrois Pride Flag
Obtrois: multiplication/summation in leptrois; the inverse/reverse of subtrois/divitrois (subsequently countrois); adjacent increasement or constant intensification of one’s leptrality; the objectivation of leptudes; representing leptive consonances.
This could be prescribed as positrois aspects, however it’s not necessarily that as it could ascribe/abut the gender negativities. Also this is a qualifier not a quantifier as positivity implies. Obtrois could be an alterutrois of supratrois and infratrois, however some obtralities/obtivities are outside this linear spectrum.
Subtrois/Countrois (or Controis): representing the contradictory aspects of leptivity or the subjacent extensions/subtypes of it; leptrois subtraction and/or division (divitrois); subjectivization of leptralities.
After a discussion of leptivity, I decided introducing some subjectivities in this spectrums system. This could represent the dysphoric feelings in one’s eugender, for example.
Kleptid Pride Flag
A neuro ideinity for people with Kleptomania, who steal genders, sexualitys, orientations, attractions, persona’s, names, ocs. While they wouldn’t necessarily identify with without Kleptomania, they do want to identify with it out of a compulsion to steal. Even though they know it’s wrong, they might privately or outwardly steal Identites that they don’t actually have the ability to identify with- for example, neurogenders that they don’t have access to, cultural specific genders that they can’t really id with, etc.
Originally called klepto ideinity by Tumblr user otherkin-purple. Submitted to us by a follower who wishes to remain anonymous. Kleptid was coined by Unã, as it’s a form of manifestation as extrapersonhood, extrapeoplekind, and extrapersonality in one’s and/or multiples’ self-identification(s) (ID/s). -Ap
Bishe Pride Flag
Bishe, or Bishx/Bixch/Bitchx: the abinary/intercidogender version of strayt/hétere and viade/gai.
Take note that it’s based on bixe/biche, which is derived from a Brazilian binaryn’t slur (bicha/bixa), therefore if you’re uncomfortable just use bixche, for example, or another thing. -Ap
A gender identity in which one only partially identifies as their SAAB, but for any reason chooses not to identify with the trans community.
Travigender Flag
Note this is only avaiable to Latinx/Latine folx.
Travigender: a genderness tied to one’s travestigender conformance and/or supremacy while inherently subversive.
The word is based on traviarcado (transviarchy), as it’s casually used as a way of empowerment simultaneously as it’s used within non-binary community to designate the gender trinarism enforced in some circles of travestigênere people.
Disclaimer: something to be proudful (but not prideful) while circumstantially problematic as it’s reinforced introduction to normative views of gender (‘atriarchy).
Cisqueer Pride Flag
Cis*queer: describing a cis* individual that is queer. One’s queerness is not necessarily tied to one’s orientation necessarily, it could stand/extend to relations(hips), genderness, sexness/sex traits or variations etc etc. Such as those encompassed within variance (variant identity). Cis* isn’t necessarily cisgender/cissex as someone can be cisn’t and encompassed by the expansion of the cis*ness.
Doppelsexual Pride Flag
Doppel-: describing one’s attraction to one’s Doppelgänger (a biologically unrelated look-alike, or a double, of a living person), or at least having an attractional curiosity.
Coined by the comrade droPe. -Ap
Bixigender Pride Flag
Bixigender or Bichigender (Bishigender/Bishgender): a genderness tied to bixice/bichice/bicheza/bixeza (bishness/fagness/queerness/gayness).
Putigender Pride Flag
Putigender: a gender tied to putice. Putice has no translation, but it’s characteristic of being a wh*re (whoreness).
Note: the word putice not only denominates sex work but also promiscuity, adultery, dehumanization, etc.
Poc Poc Pride Flag
Poc poc originated as a slur in Brazil directed at DMAB drag queens/transformists and other effeminate/fem Wolffians impersonating astrologically Ceresian traits from women (similar to tranny), but “Poc” as a slang was banalized and nowadays means the same as gay/queer or f*g, that even Pope is referred as Poc (O Papa é Poc, as satirizing the common sentence/song O Papa É Pop). It’s the sound of high heels in the floor (poc poc poc).
Lher/Lier Pride Flag
Lher or Lier: a fealexical term for a generic being, using philosophical abstraction from the generic feminine, to be used intrapersonally as self-socializing oneself as a ller/jer.
The generic feminine was proposed by Luise F. Pusch, a German feminist linguist, however it’s findable in epicene languages, such as Portuguese. The word mulher is used in Pajubá, a form of dialetical decolonial queer linguistics in Brazil, for generic folx, depending the region, sometimes even extending outside LGBT+ and Afro-Brazilian communities. Once our ex-president, Dilma Roussef, used “Mulheres sapiens” as a counterpart to “Homos sapiens”, so it actually is a generic fealexicon as is mann, the generic mealexicon.
The neologistic word Lher would be cognate with Lier (from mulier), “Mu” may also work, however it sounds like “Moo” here. Take note that using “Lher” isn’t culturally appropriative (in my PoV), but you can use Lier instead.
Mann Neutromme Pride Flag
Neutromme: A gender identity in-between male and gender neutral.
Mann: Referring to oneself as a man as one would call an object or animal by masculine terms by default. Man as in human/mankind; not necessarily separate from any other gender or with any connections to any historical masculinity.
Supranull Pride Flag
Supranull ou Supernull: an intangibility as a leptive quality; the combination of null and supratrois/superlatrois/suprois (suprative/supertive/superlative); a supermassive nullity.
Idealized by droPe, defined by me, the signification can be expanded though. -Ap
Supratrois Pride Flag
Supratrois or Supertrois: characterizing an intangible leptivity or a group of intangible leptivities; leptrois genderness/gendernesses that include(s) exceed(s) its/their dimension(s).
This definition is abstract at the moment but can be expanded. The prefix was suggested for me from a comrade (droPe).
Edit.: suprois is also a good name.
Okay. Mogai/Lgbtqiapn+ terms have a collection of mature identities, therefore and from now on, if sectual things harm you (example), please
block the tag #“mature terms”.
I don’t mean to trigger anyone, specially because, wanting or not, minors follow the blog or can access our posts, and tumblr is free for anyone above 14+ years old (at least where I live it says so). The example will be in the tags how it will be (because if you already blocked, then it shouldn’t appear).
Epingender Pride Flag
Epingender: genders that are epicene in nature.
I believe that this was created by @gender-resource, but can’t remember exactly. I feel I can transcript some of the meanings behind the qualities/qualias associated with such amplex genderness, however this shouldn’t delimit what it means to anyone else:
Well I associate it with many things, as it derives Epískyros and is associated with promiscuity (grammatically/semantically or etymologically speaking). Transgressing norms, nullifying taboos, etc. -Ap
Dharmagender: when you go through an imposition of gender or gendered expectations, but you do not feel victimized by them; instead, you feel like they were necessary experiences to give you a grander perspective or allow you to take up the role in the world you were meant to. May have conservative, conformist or heteronormative implications, but not necessarily so, as it applies also to taking up labels inside the LGBT community that allow you to better communicate who you are and thus have more ground and opportunity e.g. when you feel like revealing to people that you are nonbinary is enough, even though deep inside you know you could affirm yourself with many more specific terms.
dharmasexual, dharmaromantic: same as the above e.g. when you identify as abrosexual, omnigay, novosexual, etc. but you prefer to say you are bi because this label gives you a better currency in the social capital of the world
I have coined a new karmagender. Dharmagender has significant overlap with the antigenders of genderpunk and qiagender/quiagender, albeit it is not necessarily so – dharmagender just happens to more easily fall in line with whatever is more accepted by the circles you are in. I also indirectly expanded karma- into orientation territory.
Cisqueerhet Pride Flag
Cisqueerhet: identifying as and/or with/being cis*, queer, and het.
This includes: queer people identifying as/with be cis*het; straight cis*genderqueeries; cissex qingender hets; cisgender strayts reclaiming the q-word, and many other experiences.
Disclaimer: despite it encompasses many life experiences, it’s about consensual self-determination, if someone doesn’t want to be refferred by it but still identify with/as cisqueerhet, let them alone and don’t misdenominate.
It’s amazing how often people forget this, but so much online identity-based discourse would be rendered null and void if we only remembered that discrimination, negative stereotypes/biases, and oppression are never the fault of the group being persecuted. Nobody is responsible for their own marginalization, and you can’t put the blame on one subset of your community, no matter how unpalatable they might seem to outsiders. If anything, they need your defense and solidarity more than ever because of the persecution they face from within your community as well as outside of it.
The blame for the discrimination you face lies with those who perpetuate it, not with its victims. We find it impossible to trust anybody who will happily throw vulnerable members of their own community to the wolves in hopes of gaining preferential treatment from the privileged majority.
Figured I’d share the flag badges I’ve made for NNP, in case anyone wants to use them as emojis or somesuch. Long post because I’m not sure how else to format it and I can’t be bothered to upload them to a folder lol
Acefluid: When your attraction flows from asexual, to aromantic to another with core feelings the same (for example, homosexual, asexual homoromantic, asexual aromantic homosensual)
Aceflux: A sexual orientation on the asexual spectrum & is defined as someone who’s sexual orientation fluctuates but always stays on the ace spectrum. (ex. one day you’re demi, another day akoi, the next ace, etc) and/or someone who’s sexual orientation fluctuates from, experiencing sexual attraction, some sexual attraction, & experiencing no sexual attraction. Some people who are aceflux feel as if they are allosexual at times, while other aceflux people don’t feel that way. aceflux people can be sex repulsed, sex indifferent / neutral/apathetic towards sex, or sex positive.
I am neither, so someone who is acefluid and/or aceflux is free to chime in an clarify, but from the definitions if would appear that if you were acefluid, you would at some point feel aromantic. However, if you are aceflux, you would not. Also, aceflux involves the transition to other a-spec orientations such as demi- and akoi-. So if you don’t always feel asexual but you’re at least sometimes some other ace-spec orientatino, but your romantic orientation is not involved, you might be aceflux. If you feel no in-between area and always feel either your gender-related orientation, asexual, or asexual and aromantic together, then it sounds like acefluid.
Hopefully that helps, but again if someone who is acefluid or aceflux would like the explain it, that’d be great!
Can you still be Acefluid if all sexual identities are consistent but your romantic attraction is a bit different? (Difference in genders attracted) that would help.
Yes. I’d tell those experiences fall under mesi asexual and amplusic mutually
How problematic is altersex and transsex? And how not?
Let’s see. Both use -sex, coincidently with intersex. But couldn’t we change or sex?
R.: Chromosomally maybe not; gametically not (atm I think); Phenotypically? Of course yes; Gonadally? Well you can remove yours (atm I think you can’t transplant gonads); Genitally? Surgically yes.
Okay, maybe those aren’t all biological sexes, they are sex traits or sex characteristics.
Whataboutisms: transsex is a non-offensive way of saying transsexualized or the willingness to do so, while altersex could be an intangible in the bimodal spectrum
I made some intersex pride flags with (some) gender identities! A cis-female-identifying intersex flag, a cis-male-identifying intersex flag, a trans-identifying intersex flag, and a nonbinary-identifying intersex flag.
I really was surprised by a lack of these, since intersex is not an identity but a birth status.
If anyone wants me to make one for their gender identity, hmu and let me know (even tho anyone who wants to do it themselves can)
Edit: I know this is the real intersex flag
But I couldn’t find a way to fit gender identity into it. I’m sorry. As a cis-female-identifying intersex person it upset me, too.
EDIT 2: before I get some unwanted ✨✨discourse✨✨, you can be a binary cis and be intersex. And that can mean many things. For instance, I have NCAH. But I have a visually dyadic female vagina and breasts (as in, no enlarged clitoris or other traditionally “male” features). Because I don’t take hormones to change my dyadic-looking female body, and only treat the more dyadic masculine symptoms (like my lack of a menstrual cycle and unwanted facial hair growth), I am intersex and a cis woman.
If you’re born without an intersex condition, and you identify as the gender observed at the time of your birth, you are Dyadic cis. I’m intersex cis. We’re both cis, just in a different way.
Also, you can be intersex and identify as cis intersex! As in, you have a mix of Dyadic male and Dyadic female traits and you want to stay exactly the way you are! And that’s valid too. Celebrate all forms of intersex!
I’m cis because I’m afab and still identify as a woman. If I was afab and identified any other way, I’d be trans. I’m intersex because my body itself has a mixed bag of secondary sex characteristics and hormones.
The label “intersex” itself isn’t a gender identity as much as it’s a way for people with mixed or ambiguous sex characteristics to define that experience. There are cis men and women who are intersex, trans people of every kind as well. I’m sure there are intersex people who just identify as intersex entirely but most intersex people I’ve met still identify as male, female, or nonbinary. Because your body doesn’t determine your gender identity.
Also, the opposite of intersex is perisex. You can be cis or trans, while being intersex or perisex. If you’re not intersex, you are perisex.
Y’all can reblog this actually
Nobody knows anything about intersex ppl so like. Learn things and educate others so people like me can feel less isolated and alienated by other queer ppl lol
This year’s PCOS & Gender Survey is now LIVE and is expected to be live until July 4th, 2021
This year, there are 2 versions of the survey: one for participants diagnosed with PCOS, and another for participants with ovaries that do NOT have PCOS
To participate in either version of the survey, respondents MUST be 18+ and have been born with female reproductive organs (because this is necessary for a formal diagnosis of PCOS)
Before I provide the links to the survey, I want to clear up some things. Reading through what people have responded in their textbox responses, I feel that there’s some confusion and a couple of things need to be cleared up:
I am NOT a professional, and this is a CASUAL survey
I am not a team of people; I am working on this project ALONE
I am ONE person (who is NOT a professional researcher) working ALONE on this CASUAL survey; as such, I don’t have access to the materials professionals have. I analyze the data in google sheets and compile them in google docs. Because I’m working on this alone in my free-time while working full-time, I need to make unfortunate limitations to the structure of the survey. This includes limiting respondents to one response per question. I understand that this can make people feel “erased” when they identify as multiple gender identities, even with the option “I identify with multiple gender identities”. Unfortunately, opening up the ability to choose multiple options listed would simply make the data much too complicated for me to effectively analyze
I do not intend to skew the results in any direction or imply that any opinion is “correct” or “incorrect”; some people seem to think that by asking questions about their stance on the debate over whether PCOS qualifies someone to be intersex, I am implying that it definitively does and/or am implying that anyone with PCOS somehow makes someone “less” of a woman (the latter also seems to apply to the survey questions as a whole). This is not true. The purpose of the questions is to gather opinions. That’s the purpose of this entire project – to gather opinions and experiences
Please remember that I am human and be kind. If anything about the survey upsets you in any way, you are free to leave before submitting, thereby erasing your response. If anything about the survey upsets you and you still wish to complete it, however, you are free to contact me. If you provide feedback regarding anything in the survey upsetting you, please be civil. Some comments have, to be quite frank, gone too far.
The links for each version of the survey can be seen below:
This post will be queued to post regularly for the following 2 weeks; if you would like to avoid seeing the reposted version, please blacklist the tag “#2021 survey”
Summary of the March-May 2021 ‘choicekin’ discussion
(I have drawn lines between certain items on the list to indicate when a new post/thread is started and which items are part of the same post/thread)
March 12th 2021 – @/plurgai-archive writes about “kinning” by choice, and how choosing to create an otherkin identity is different from otherlinking, because a linker can stop being a linker, while a “kin by choice” can’t stop being ‘kin. It also claims that “kin” can be used as a verb due to this. Its opinions about choice of identity stem in large part from its own spiritual beliefs.
April 7th 2021 – @/enchanted-arms responds to the March 12 post that being otherkin is not a choice, but agrees that ‘kinning’ is different from otherlinking, (it’s implied that the difference is that ‘kinning’ is typically without much thought, while linking is typically done more seriously). According to @/enchanted-arms ‘otherkin’ has a long history and an agreed upon meaning that was slowly defined via mailing lists and forums. Additionally they claim that telling people that being otherkin is not a choice is not forcing people to identify as otherlink, but rather that it’s asking people to respect the aforementioned agreed-upon meanings.
April 7th 2021 – @/plurgai-archive responds that since a lot of people agree that ‘kinning’, ‘kinnie’, and choosing to be otherkin are all “valid”, that means it is valid and ends by saying that being otherkin can be a choice, with the reasoning that it fits into its belief system.
—————————————
April 12th 2021 – An anonymous ask is sent to @/plurgai-archive, claiming that it’s causing harm to the community to say that otherkinity is a choice, that the whole idea of choice originated with anti-otherkin folks, and that it would be better for @/plurgai-archive to boost identity labels that focus on the voluntarity, such as the copinglink label. @/plurgai-archive responds that otherlinking means something different to what it is experiencing, since it chooses to become otherkin but then can’t shed its identity the way a linker would be able to. It ends the post by referring to the experience as ‘choicekin’.
April 12th 2021 – @/alternormal suggest that @/plurgai-archive look into the quoiluntary label and @/plurgai-archive responds that it’s a nice word.
—————————————
May 3rd 2021 – @/plurgai writes a post further explaining the differences between ‘kin for fun’, otherlink, and choicekin, which can be summarized as “roleplayer/faceclaimer/person with a comfort character”, “voluntary identity that one could get rid of”, and “voluntary identity that one could not get rid of”, respectively. Included in the post is a venn diagram of how the terms overlap.
May 3rd 2021 – @/aestherians responds that what @/plurgai describes as ‘choicekin’ is a well-known otherkin experience that does not warrant a word of its own. @/plurgai responds that it agrees, but that it felt pressure from within the otherkin community to create a new term for those experiences. It explains that it experienced harassment due to the initially voluntary nature of its kintype(s).
—————————————
May 4th 2021 – An anonymous ask is sent to @/plurgai which proposes that ‘choicekin’ should be an optional label for people who initially chose a nonhuman identity which then became a kintype. The ask also claims that metaphysical labels, such as ‘otherkin’, don’t have official definitions, that it has never been specified that kintypes must be involuntary, that language and labels change over time, and that the otherkin community should be more open to these changes to prevent inter-communal divisions. @/plurgai enthusiastically agrees.
—————————————
May 4th 2021 – An anonymous ask is sent to @/a-dragons-explanations asking what ‘choicekin’ means. The blog mentions two different meanings: A chosen nonhuman/fictional identity that turns into a kintype (which they claim to have only seen once) and a chosen nonhuman/fictional identity that’s not necessarily a self-identification or a kintype, in other words “kin for fun” (which they claim to have seen a lot more often).
—————————————
May 5th 2021 – @/plurgai states that it’s half-divorcing itself from the word ‘choicekin’ since it was always a real otherkin experience and it only coined the term due to harassment. It emphasizes that ‘choicekin’ was never meant to describe a new class of alterhumanity, just one specific experience that falls under the otherkin umbrella.
—————————————
May 6th 2021 – @/plurgai writes one last post explaining that ‘choicekin’ was never meant to describe ‘kin for fun’ experiences and that there’s still an element of involuntarity to the choicekin experience, in that choicekin are unable to drop their kintype(s). The term ‘choicekin’ was created in a spur-of-the-moment response to anon hate and was never meant to describe a separate group of identities, just a specific otherkin experience.
Wonderful reminder: choicekin is validated within the pre-stablished official community of kinners alive on Tumblr

Gouinage in Brazil refers to non-penetrative sex acts/position preferences (roles during sexual activity) and is equivalent to terms bottom/top/vers (versatile/flex).
In French it’s the d word, so it only works in Portuguese probably.
Em português: No Brasil, gouinage se refere ao sexo sem penetração e é equivalente a passive/ative/versátil. Em francês é uma palavra parecida com sapatão.
GØy, gøy, g∅y or g⌀y (g⦰y or g0y): a word, derived from gay at least in Brazil, to describe a subcultural and countercultural movement and community, of MLM, MDM and MSM (men who like/date/sex men) outsiders, ascribing or prescribing a unwillingliness to perform sexual acts anally, however it’s dubious whether the unwillingness is bottomingly and/or toppingly intercoursality/penetration, depending the individual’s response intrapersonally.
A rotated vertically horizontally and arbitrarily inverted combination of the “Brazilian” and “American” g0y flags, findable in Wikimedia Commons, representing a unnational/mundannial/international sense.
Note: some say the etymology is goy, but it’s called gói in Portuguese, so it doesn’t make total sense to affirm so when it’s a term predominantly Brazilian, specially because I’ve never seen gǾy/gǿy nor gǾi/gǿi.
See also: gouinage, frotting. -Ap

Skirt Male: a Wolffadic/Wolffian folk in a dress; a reclaimed term adopted by some cintramasculine and butch transfeminine people, unifying gender/sex modalities to include altersex/transsex and cissex/citersex individuals who are stereotyped as masculine but are not identitily/identitarianly (indentitariamente), and could possibly indicate epicene effeminacy.
This is called macho de saia in Portuguese. Macho doesn’t mean man in Portuguese, it designates/denominates Wolffians grouping them with male organisms, but since English has influenced our language (aka linguistic imperialism), it also stands for masculine people in general, such as transmasculine orientation-variant people (transviados) [although it’s a redundancy, trans people are inherently variant in their affectional orientation].
There is a neurodivergent flag and a disabled flag but there isn’t one for neurodivergent and disabled (At least I never saw one)… So I made one (which is a mix of the two flags)!
«Western Scholarship on Third Genders: What does the Gender “Trinary” Do?» referring to third-genders contrasted with binaries
Mar 16: non-trinary is coined synonymously with non-quaternary, but meaning the same as “aquaternary” alluding a tridimentional trinary (a conventional trinary (M./F./N. [N. of neuter/neutral]) that includes nullity
Mar 17: (qua)ternary/binary nongender unspecification is also beyond neither and both
JUNE 4: @exorsexistbullshit defines “gender trinarism” describing it as “the idea that all nonbinary people are just a separate gender from women and men”
11 June: first atrinary flag, using anonbinary flag format
16 August: second atrinary flag, using abinary flag template
2019
Jan 6th: @momma-mogai-sphinx coins the first flag for “anontrinary” and groups atrinary, anontrinary and anonbinary as “specific subcategories for nonbinary gender identities”
Jan 20th: leptary is coined, now nontrinary is a nongender arity and atrinary an agender arity
Mar 27th: gender arities are reorganized and explained individually
Jul 8th: user leptrois (us)/we explain(s) leptarity/leptariety
Do you remember another significant event for trinary? Comment in the notes or reblogging so we know/sending an ask
Abinary: Neither male nor female (i.e, most xenogenders, NINgenders, aporagenders, etc.).
Nonbinary: Any gender that isn’t 100% only male or only female 100% of the time.
Atrinary: Any gender that’s not male/masculine, female/feminine, androgynous, or neutral/genderless (i.e, most xeno-, UIN-, and aporagenders)
Anonbinary: Not binary or “"nonbinary”“. Describes genders completely unrelated to the gender binary (such as aporagenders and most xenogenders). Pretty much synonymous to abinary.
Midbinary: Between male and female (LINgenders). EDIT: correction- midbinary defines any gender connected to binary male or female.
Singular (gender quality) a gender related to or gender characteristic of gender singularity. A singular gender has no relation to singular thoughts or monolithism, instead it is a gender contrasted with femininity, masculinity, or other gender constructs. Gender singularity is a feeling of unquantified numerosity, finitivity, unity, uniformity, or similitude of elements, it is a simple, or unique gender, but is not necessarily unigender or monogender.
Plural (gender quality): a gender related to or gender characteristic of gender plurality. A plural gender has no relation to plural thoughts or pluralism, instead it is a gender contrasted with femininity, masculinity, or other gender constructs. Gender plurality is a feeling of quantified numerosity, transfinity, multitude, variety, or diversity of elements, it is a multiple, or vast gender, but is not necessarily plurigender or gendervast.
Turiagirl (A Girl Turian) : A cusper Turian, cross-aligned (girl-aligned/lunarian guy or guy-aligned/solarian girl), multigender/polygender (girlboy/boygirl), turiagender/vinciagender girl, or otherwise a girl that is gay for men.
An umbrella term for sex identities that are not understandable or not wanting to label it. It can include dysidentifying with sex, finding sex identity confusing, an alternate term for sex questioning, etc.
Can also be called WTFsex, whatsex, quoiadic, WTFadic, or whatadic.
Asex
(Second row left flag)
Lack of sex identity. Sexless.
Asex people MAY be angenital, angonadal, anchest, etc.
Can also be called assex, or anadic.
Aporasex
(Second row, right flag)
A sex identity that does not contain femaleness and maleness at all, but is not sexless.
Can also be called aporadic.
Aliensex
(Third row, left flag)
A sex identity where one feels euphoric by conceptualizing their sex as nonhuman that is not from the Planet Earth.
Aliengenital
(Third row, right flag)
A genital identity where one feels euphoric by conceptualizing their genitalia as nonhuman that is not from the Planet Earth. Genital identity subset of aliensex.
Eldritchsex
(Bottom left flag)
A sex identity where one feels euphoric by conceptualizing their sex as eldritch, eldritch-like, or eldritch-related, basically eldritch horror.
Eldritchgenital
(Bottom right flag)
A genital identity where one feels euphoric by conceptualizing their genitalia as eldritch, eldritch-like, or eldritch-related, basically eldritch horror. Genital identity subset of eldritchsex
I redesigned the last ones because I did not like them.
So I’ve struggled to find a term to come up with that explains my gender identity, so I’ve decided to just come up with my own, and it’s counterpart, with flags to match.
Interaguy/Interagal
Terms to fall under the interagender umbrella (where you feel no gender due to being intersex), meaning for when you feel a connection to the male/female (depending on the term) gender but also feel genderless, and your gender identity can be described as being from, intertwined with, or due to being intersex.
It can be simutaneously, you can switch between being genderless and male/female, or it can vary between the two, but you have a connection to both male/female and agender in some form.
I chose the term guy and gal because I wanted a term that isn’t male or female since we necessarily fully connected to those, and also I didn’t want to use man/boy or woman/girl because I wanted terms easy and comfortable to use for all ages.
The flags are meant to be close to the trans flag but with intersex colors (note: you do not have to identify as trans to use these terms), and then with the added “guy color” (blue) for the interaguy flag and added “gal color” (pink) for the interagal flag. There is a circle like the one on the OII intersex flag added, but in grey, to help symbolize the ties to being genderless.
If anybody relates to these identities in anyway but with a different gender, please feel free to make your own variation with the term and flag if you want!!!
Edit: I switched this to Intergenderless Guy and Intergenderless Gal, under the Intergenderless/Vacagender umbrella! Everything else still fits, I just prefer the terminology.
Mann Woman: A woman referring to herself as a man as one else would call an object or animal by mealexical terms by default; a woman using intrapersonally man for herself in the sense of being human/experiencing mankind.
This is not self-describing oneself as werman/wereman, or another wergender, manwoman/werwifman (werewife) or male woman (womale/wommale). This is an event of the ≪grammatically≫ generic masculine.
The flag may also represent pleonotic fiaspec/wifgender people, such as girls, female people, gals, ladies, etc. Not just women/wifmen/wommen.
Abinary Mann: An abinary folk referring to emself as a man as one else would call an object or animal by mealexical terms by default; an abinary folk using intrapersonally man for emself in the sense of being human/experiencing mankind.
The abinary golden is more darkened to intermediate red and yellow colors. Mann colours switched to be more visually pleasing. -Ap
So I’ve seen recently the term Seahorse Dad floating around for trans guys wanting to carry their own children (pregnancy) and as a trans guy who has a strong connection to pregnancy, I fell in love with it.
So I made a flag! The blue and golden stripes match the ocean environment and the seahorse icon with the male symbol is to represent a male seahorse; as they are the ones who carry the seahorse eggs to term. Personally I find this really empowering and just makes me feel really good about my trans identity and my strong connection to pregnancy- which I have a lot of imposter syndrome about.
Coined by me, for me, but feel free to use with credit!
It could be any experience involving those identifiers/qualifiers: multigender, polygender, plurigender, gender-fluidness, gendervast, gender-hoarding, gender-collecting, intercidogender/centrigender, genderpostion, gender-shuffling, plingender, viagender, ideogender etc etc. -Ap
Neumasc: a neuter masculinity; a masculine neuterness; neugender + mascgender(/manugender); possessing both masculine and neutral gender qualities; a neutromasculine presentation; an intercidogender/centrigender of neutrois(/centrois) and masculitrois(/masctrois); a gender combination (genderpotion/shuffler) of neu. and masc.; a neutramasculinity (masculigender-neutragender); multitude or ambitude of niaspec/ningender/nideogender (niabinary/nideospec/nideobinary) and miaspec/mingender/mideogender (mideospec/mideobinary/miabinary) or N-gender and M-gender.
Actually it’s closer to platoniflux flag, but I checked the colors are dissimilar. -Ap
Neufem or neufemme: a neuter femininity; a feminine neuterness; neugender + femgender(/feminigender); possessing both feminine and neutral gender qualities; a neutrofeminine presentation; an intercidogender/centrigender of neutrois(/centrois) and femitrois(/femtrois); a gender combination (genderpotion/shuffler) of neu. and fem.; a neutrafemininity (femigender-neutragender); multitude or ambitude of niaspec/ningender/nideogender (niabinary/nideospec/nideobinary) and fiaspec/fingender/fideogender (fideospec/fideobinary/fiabinary) or N-gender and F-gender.
It can have more descriptions. As it’s just a multilexic shorthand of neu-fem. -AP
Transneufem (transneu + transfem): a transneutral transfemininity; a transfeminine transneutrality.
-Ap
Transgenderist Pride Flag
“Transgenderist” (TG or transgendrist/transgenist), or “transgenderal”/transgendral/transgenal: a reclaimed term. It used to describe and/or encompass transines/medically non-transitioning cisn’ts, cuspers/evenics, and third-gender/aliagender (generally androgyne, epicene or neutrois) individuals. A precursor of genderqueer. Also included under transgender/transgendre/transgen.
It’s an outdated term and not in contemporary use anymore, considered politically regressive, but some do reclaim/resignify transgenderist for themselves as a way of empowerment. -Ap
“Transgenderist” (TG), or “transgenderal”: a reclaimed term. It used to describe and/or encompass transines/medically non-transitioning cisn’ts, cuspers/evenics, and third-gender/aliagender (generally androgyne, epicene or neutrois) individuals. A precursor of genderqueer. Also included under transgender.

This flag is created for bi women/woman-aligned people who are more strongly attracted to women. Historically, the term lesbian has included bi, pan, or other m-spec women.

Since a lot of biphobes are getting rocks in their shoes over this I’mma post some more bi lesbian flags I’ve found around.
Feel free to add others you find/made and please let me know if you know the source for anything unknown!
ABisexual Lesbian (or Bi-Lesbian for short) is someone who is both bisexual and a lesbian. This term can be used by women who use the split attraction model and are bisexual and homoromantic (lesbian) or someone who experiences lesbian tertiary attraction.
They have sexual attraction to two or more genders but are only
romantically attracted to women. They may find themselves sexually
attracted to men, but could never picture themselves in a relationship
with one, putting more emphasis on their attraction to women, though
this varies from person to person. It can also be used by people who
identify as both bisexual and lesbian, either due to changing
attraction, or due being part of plural system. Additionally, the term
can apply to women and other non-men who are bisexual and prioritize
their attraction to women/non-men or have a strong preference for
women/non-men, or for people who are reclaiming the historical
definition of lesbian alongside identifying as bisexual.
This can also be switched around for biromantics!
History of Bi Lesbianism
Origin:
The
label “bi lesbian” originated in the 1970s as a result of the effects
of lesbian separatism, a belief within some strains of lesbian feminism
and often within radical feminism which advocates for separating women
from men in as many ways as possible as a strategy to achieve women’s
liberation.[1]
Subsequently, this lead to lesbian separatists rejecting and often
discriminating against women who refused to withdraw from their
involvment with men, particularly bisexual women. Lesbian separatists
accused bisexual women of “sleeping with the enemy” and forcefully
removed them from lesbian spaces and from claiming the lesbian identity
for themselves, by redefining it as “a homosexual female/woman” or “a
woman who does not sleep with men/is not attracted to men”. It is
because of lesbian separatism that the bisexual label became very
popular starting in the 1970s, as the word to describe a woman who was
attracted to other women before was “lesbian”, whether they were
attracted exclusively or not, and now that had suddenly changed.
Examples of Use
Lavender Woman, Volume 2, Issue 5, August 1973: “What is a Lesbian? To me, a lesbian is a woman-oriented woman; bisexuals can be lesbians…”[2]
Lani Kaahumanu, “Bisexuality & Discrimination”, BBWM Vol. 3, No. 6, Dec 1985-Jan 1986:
“…my lesbian awareness isn’t lost now that I claim my bisexuality
[…] My political consciousness is lesbian but my lifestyle is
bisexual…”[3]
Robyn Ochs, “Bi of the Month: Betty Aubut”, Bi Women Vol. 5, No. 2, April-May 1987:
“I call myself a “bisexual lesbian.” I will always politically identify
as bisexual, which to me means opposing restrictive categories […] I
consider myself gay. I think bisexuals are gay and gay liberation is our liberation…”[4]
Amy Wyeth, “Don’t Assume Anything”, Bi Women Vol. 13, No. 4, Aug-Sep 1995:
“Unfortunately, many of my experiences as a lesbian-identified bisexual
woman have said to me that having an appearance or demeanor that
diverges from the expected means I will not be accepted as truly
belonging in the lesbian community.”[5]

I designed the bi/gay vincian flag (under the cut). I used vician meaning gay man (magnian, floric, veldian/turian), but its own word to include gai/gay nlm/torians. -Ap
Sexual abstinence, abstention or restraint: the practice of refraining/abstaining from sexual relations/some or all aspects of sexual activity for any reason.
Dictionarized adjectivals (abstainer, abstinent, abstentious, abstemious) in English are commonly associated with abstention from ingestion/consumption (not consummation), while some alternatives can be used for general abstention: abstentioned, abstentioner, restrained, restrainer, abstemic, abstent/abstant (abstence/abstance), abstential/abstemial.
Abstention can be temporary, lasting, voluntary, involuntary, quoiluntary, etc. Usually it’s associated with religion/spirituality, but there are other reasons someone could personally abstain from sex: medical, psychological, legal, social, financial, philosophical, moral…
Both chastities and celibacies can be/are forms of sexual abstention/abstinence, while not all abstentions are considered celibate/chaste. Not the same as asexuality, as abstinence is behavioral. -Ap
Nealexic(on): A term to describe someone who is comfortable with others using non-gendered language (royalty, folk, child, mx., monarch, one/one’s, etc.) or gendered language that is usually associated with neu(troisness/trality) (prinx, suzerain, nby/xent/moze, mx. quing, they/them, etc.) when addressing/interacting with them. It is for anyone who feels comfortable/affirmed when addressed with nea language.
Although n- in nin-/nia- is commonly used for neutral exclusively, its coining included null and non-binary as well, so I think nea- could be inclusive of anything outside mea-/fea-. It should be noted that fin/min were originally called ffin/mmin but included main/fein (mia/fia), and that the “gendered” part is just how one view it by oneself but some languages such as Spanish has a grammatically natural gender “oa” (as in otroa, unoa), proposed by Zapatistas. AP
Mealexic(on): A term to describe someone who is comfortable with others using gendered language that is usually associated with ma(leness/sculinity) (prince, gentleman, boy, mr., king, he/him, etc.) when addressing/interacting with them. It is for anyone who feels comfortable/affirmed when addressed with mea language.
Fealexic(on): “A term to describe someone who is comfortable with others using gendered language that is usually associated with fem(aleness/ininity) (princess, lady, girl, ms., queen, she/her, etc.) when addressing/interacting with them. It is for anyone who feels comfortable/affirmed when addressed with fea language”.
Femaslinity or femmaslinity: refers to the act of having or showing qualities associated with femulinity- a set of behaviors, presentations, and roles which were/are typically culturally associated with being a femasle/femache (femmache/femmasle); the augmentative of mascfem/femmasc/femasc.
Femmasline can be a form of experiencing both masculinity and femininity as a unified/united gender quality (monogender/unigender, gendervast or multigender/polygender), being between masculine and feminine (centrigender, midgender), a combination (genderpotion, gender shuffler) or the qualifier of a lideogender (lideospec) expression. Lideo being an ideogender (ideospec, lideobinary in ideobinary), similar to lingender/liagender (liaspec, liabinary in viabinary, a viagender).
Ectyne-/ectine- (ectogine-/ectogyne-), ectyno-/ectino- (ectogyno-/ectogino-), ectynae-/ectynæ- (ectogynae-/ectogynæ-), ectogi-/ectogy- (ectineco-, ectogynaeco-/ectogynæco-), ectogyn-/ectogin- (ectogyneco-/ectogineco-), ectyn-/ectin- (ectynaeco-/ectynæco-) or ginecto-/gynecto- (gynaecto-/gynæcto-): attraction to other people as women.
Renamed from “allogynephilia”/“allogynophilia”. All the synonyms come from the variations of the word gyne- and its abbreviation (gi-, consequently gy-) and ending (yne-/ine-): gyno-, gyn-, gynae-/gynæ-, gynæco-/gynaeco-, gyneco-, gine-, gino-, gineco-.
– Ap
To be used as: ectogynosexual/ectoginosexual, ectynosexual/ectinosexual, ectynaexaul/ectogynaesexual, ectoginesexual, ectogisexual/ectogysexual, gynectosexual/ginectosexual, ectynsexual/ectinsexual, ectogynsexual/ectoginsexual… ectogynromantic/ectoginromantic, ectinromantic/ectynromantic, ectogiromantic/ectogyromantic, ectogynoromantic/ectogyneromantic, gynectoromantic/ginectoromantic, ectyneromantic/ectineromantic, ectogineromantic…
Ectan-/ectandro- (ectoandro-) or andrecto- (androecto-): attraction to other people as men.
Different from pandro-/panandro- (attraction to masculinity in all genders/regardless of gender).
This is renaming “alloandrophilia” (alloAP), because although it’s not a common experience many don’t feel this is a paraphilia intrapersonally, allo- in that case comes from -allo- in analloerotic, called ecto- orientation terms, meaning attraction to people other than oneself. -AP
I would love to coin something! However I would like to know how would you define, if it is similar to neolabels that use the prefix ‘quoi-’, like quoigender.
Also, I saw ‘bodyfluid’ on the Altersex Dictionary, it was on the ‘Other’ section and the tags on the coining post had ’-adic’ and ‘morphism’ so maybe it is related to altersex? We really should ask BMPF.
Actually, bodyfluid was coined via «old» mogai-archive. You can check this reblog. Altersex wasn’t coined at that time. But the term altersex has been expanded gradually I think. And for anything that it doesn’t encompass and isn’t conformant, there’s always varsex as sex variance.
The term could be a sort of presentationfluidity referring to one’s physical body. In the same day I posted the flag I coined abromorphous specifically. -Ap
Libraneutrofeminine or librafemineutral: a scale where one side is agender and the other side is femineutral/femneutral or neutrofeminine/neufem; an identity that is mostly agender but: ① has partial/strong/particular connection to femineutrality(/femneutrality)/neutrofemininity(/neutrofeminity/neufemness/neufemity) and/or its gendered feelings; ② experiences little attachment to being neufemme/femineutrois(/femmeneutral/femmeneutrois/femneutrois/neufemitrois/neufeminitrois);
Librafemmasc or librafemasc (librafemasline/librafemimasculine): a scale where one side is agender and another side is mascfem/femimasculine/femmasc/femasc or lideogender/lideospec; an identity that is mostly agender but: ① has partial/strong/particular connection to feminimasculinity/femimasculinity/femulinity/feminulinity(/femmaslinity/femmasculinity/femaslinity) and/or its gendered feelings; ② experiences little attachment to being femuline/feminuline/femmasculine/femasculine/femasline/mascfemme/feminimasculine/femmasline;
Libraneutromasculine or libramascuneutral: a scale where one side is agender and another side is mascneutral/mascuneutral or neutromasculine/neumasc; an identity that is mostly agender but: ① has partial/strong/particular connection to mascuneutrality/neutromasculinity(/mascneutrality/neumascness) and/or its gendered feelings; ② experiences little attachment to being mascneutrois/neumasculitrois(/mascuneutrois).
Autoandrophobia: the fear of being a man; the opposite of autoandrophilia, characterized as the repulsion by the thought of becoming a male; the aversion of being testodominant/dominantly androgenized (testonized/testeronized); the dislike of Wolffian/Wolfadic sex traits (either primary or secondary sex characteristics: genotypical/genetical (karyotypical/cytogenetical, chromosomal) or phenotypical, gonadal/genital or hormonal) in oneself.
Charles A. Moser this word the first time in 2010, ascribing “blocking masculinity” through antiandrogens (testosterone blockers) whereas autoandrophobes aren’t essentially paraphilacs for the desire to block masculinizing traits or experiencing undesired masculinization. That said, it was never defined til now. The blog @autophile-positivity once used autoandrophobia meaning autoandrophilophobia or autoandrophilomisia (apparently), which is the prejudiceagainst/antipathy towards or hatred of autoandrophiles. But what I’m describing here is a phobia term. Although semantics would imply internalized androphobia or otherwise self-hatred (autoandromisia/automisandry), it’s not the case of oppression, however it can be societally conditioned. -Ap
Ambigue: an ambiguous gender. A gender identity associated with ambiguity.
@momma-mogai-sphinx had signified ambiguity as a gender quality, as androgynous is also a gender expression, there’s androgyne to contrast as a gender identity, so it is ambigue with ambiguousness.
Ambiguous is defined as something open to more than one interpretation; having a double meaning; synonymous to Delphic, cryptic, enigmatic, gnomic, paradoxical, misleading, ambivalent and obscure.
Not to be confused with ambigugender or ambigender. It could be also an ambitrois gender.
-ap
Ambigue Woman / Ambigue Man
an ambiguous female or male gender. a gender identity that is associated with ambiguous femaleness or ambiguous maleness.
emigender/solverigender: having a loose or weak connection to a gender or certain qualities.
(gender)prox: a gender that is very near a given gender, but is not strictly so; identifying with certain aspects of a given gender, but not all aspects
(gender)-proximal: a term made to include: [gender]; people who are not necessarily/fully/always [gender] but experience connection to [gender]hood but not [gender]ness.
offgender: a gender in which someone feels most closely represented by a certain gender, but is not that gender.
paragender: a gender in which one is mostly a given gender, but not entirely due to being slightly another gender.
perigender: identifying with a gender, but not as that gender.
prox-/jux– (circabinary or proximal identities): genders and gender expressions that are similar to, or derived from, certain genders.
flex-: a modifier of an orientation term meant to signify that your orientation is somewhat divergent from the usual definition or use of the term, or that it doesn’t exactly fit but it fits more than any other current term.
demigenders are sometimes defined as having a partial connection to a given genders, instead of being partially those genders. [gender] by proxy could also work, but I’m not sure. while for lesbian/gay/homo specifically, there’s paraidem– (paraidemsexual, paraidemromantic…).
I smalled the texts because I think you can also use those normal sized affixes, such as proxidentities, emiorientation, para-identification… Just as disidentification and postorientation are used. Also -prox-/proxi(mo)– is an existing/legit word root. -Ap
It intersectionally encompasses other modalities, as an umbrella term, but can also be a standalone identity, for those who strongly identify with sex/gender masculinity or maleness/manhood/boyhood (meabinary, mideobinary/mideogender, miabinary/miagender), whether it’s binary or not. The name combines intramasculinity with cismasculinity/cismasc. Also it doesn’t cancel the OMAB non-binary man’s trans*ness/isoness, for example. Citragender (citramasc, citramasculine, cistramasculinity) can be also another name for this. It can also ascribe some ultermasculine/exparmasculine folx as well. Not inherently a conformant term but not necessarily variant either. -AP

So as i (the host) want to become a parent someday, i wanted to introduce to the general sphere the terms ill using for myself because well, although parent works just fine, i want something that works for all kinds of familial terms.
If you dont know, in english, most familial terms are gendered. As a nonbinary person, i wanted terms that were androgynous. I also wanted options for bigender people like me who like combos of pre-existing terms that included both male and female versions smashed together. Now, normally those would be used to refer to nonbinary people but the whole point of being nonbinary is that you dont fit the binary(of male and female) so im coining terms seperate from them but related. I wont be making remake terms for terms that are all ready gender neutral( sibling, child, parent).Lets get started.
Nonbinary familial terms;
Parental;
Mother/father -> Nether ( pronounced: Nea-thur. Similar to the minecraft world)
Mom/dad -> Net/Neb
Mommy/Daddy -> Netty/Nebby
Momma/Dadda -> Netta/Nebba
Grandmother/grandfather -> grandnether
Other familial alternatives;
Sister/brother -> Neter/Neber ( pronounced; net-tur or one who nets)
The purple is for patience and understanding The soft red is for undying love and devotion for your children The light pink is for tenderness and soft maternal feelings
[Image description: Three horizontal stripes – orange, white, and muted teal in a rectangle. That rectangle is nested within a black one, within a white one, within a gray one. End ID.]
Suptilic: A descriptor for when your orientation is precise and not flexible, fluid, or in flux.
Aroace: Not experiencing romantic or sexual attraction.
[Image: A flag with 7 stripes. The first three go from dark blue-green to light blue-green. The center is white. The bottom three stripes go from light to dark blue. It was designed to mirror the lesbian flag]
[Original post about it here] [Deviantart original posting with updated description here] [ @archivalflags more detailed post about it here]
Mod Hermy of the Pride-Flags Deviantart here: I just found out during my hiatus from this blog that there’s been a lot of discourse surrounding this flag that I helped make.
APPARENTLY some truscum/transmed took this flag and reuploaded it (that got 8.2k notes vs the 9 notes my original post has),
wording it in a way that made people think it was made by them (and
also “official”). Also, it seems like it’s been co-opted by truscum and
transphobes to exclude trans and nonbinary gay men.
I am beyond pissed off at this, especially since I don’t remember anyone telling me it was stolen.
To be very clear:
Inever want any of my flags being used to exclude part of the LGBTQAI+/MOGAI community. I am fully supportive of all
aspec identities, “MOGAI” genders (including xenogenders, kingenders,
neurogenders and neurorientations) pronoun noncomforming gays and
lesbians (or anyone, really), GNC trans people, people who use the SAM,
low/non-dysphoric trans people, and anyone else who may get excluded.
Basically, any identity (that’s notcentered around harming people or animals) is amazing and valid.
Also this
was never meant to be a finalized design (especially since I’m nonbinary and bi), it was simply a suggestion
since the anon that asked me about a gay man flag suggested one that was too similar to the butch lesbian flag. They never followed up on it so I posted it on Deviantart for opinions but didn’t get much interaction there. I saw it around a few times but didn’t realize it took off like that and was being credited to a truscum, no less.
I’m not quite sure what to do regarding damage control around the exclusionists that are using my flag, but I started by working with several gay men in a pride, and my personal server to come up with meanings for each stripe (based on @gayflagblog ‘s flag) that explicitly include GNC, nonbinary, trans, ace/arospec, split-attraction, and pronoun nonconforming gay men (also made it prettier).
[Image: The same flag as above but with meanings superimposed over each stripe: [Community] [Inclusion] [She/her and pronoun noncomforming gays] [GNC, nonbinary, and trans men] [Ace/arospec and split-attraction gays] [Love and attraction] [Diversity]]
Here’s a better version made by @gayflagblog to deal with the problems with my proposal/suggestion:
[Images: Two flags made to look similar to the first flag but with bolder colors. The blue stripes are slightly more purple and the green stripes are slightly more green. The first flag has seven stripes and the second is a simplified 5-stripe version]
And [Here] are some more gay man/MLM flags (including PNC and SAM gays) made by other people that I’ve been collecting (gallery is incomplete though, please send any missing flags/sources to me).
Gender agnosticism: A term to describe an individual who considers the phenomenon of gender identity to be unknowable or indeterminable by its very nature; one who claims neither belief nor disbelief in gender as a concept; not experiencing identification nor disidentification with gender/as gendered.
Defined with help from @gender-resource. However, this description may not represent all gender agnostics and it’s up/open to them to use this flag regardless of their personal (un)definitions.
See also: gender nihilism, gender apathetic (apagender), quoigender, quesingender (quesin – questioning in nature), gender anarchy (gender anarchist/s). Not to be confused with gender atheism, which is used by TERFs (as gender antitheism, reframed of “anti-genderism”), nor with gender skepticism, which is close to the concept of transmedical exorsexism (“nb skeptic/al”) [but they can be redefined/taken back]. –Ap
PomoAro (pomoaromantic): an individual who feels like there currently isn’t a word to accurately describe how they experience their own romanticity, BUT they feel most connected to the aromantic community. This is NOT a way of saying they’re aromantic or arospec, rather they can relate a lot to what aromantic and aro-spectral people experience and go through. The pomo prefix acknowledges that there might be a term in the future as our understanding of human romantic orientation becomes more comprehensive.
Based on pomoace (pomoasexual). Not the same as PomoRo (pomoromantic). -Ap
Axangi or aproxangi (ajuxangi, ajuproxangi, aprojuxangi): a combination of both agender and proxangi (juxangi, projuxangi, juproxangi); a genderless, androgynous/ambiguous gender similar to being an ambigue/ambiguine or an androgyne, but on a separate plane and off to itself; axvir + axera; ajuxera + aproxvir.
Similar to axavire (aproxavire/ajuxavire/ajuproxavire/aprojuxavire). -Ap
I don’t have a name for it yet, but this is an umbrella flag for everyone who has an orientation, but has actions that don’t seem to fit into that to other people.
Ex.
Straight men who are either MSM or MDM (Men who have sex with men, and men who date men)
Straight women who are either WSW or WDW (Women who have sex with women, and women who date women)
Turians who are either MSW or MDW (Men who have sex with women, and men who date women)
Lesbians who are either WSM or WDM (Women who have sex with men, and women who sate men)
Asexual people who have sex
Aromantic people who date
It isn’t fair for people to force you to id as anything other than your actual identity, so here’s an umbrella flag for it.
– Heathcliff
I have two names in mind for this:
Affectional latency, based on the term latent sexuality;
Affection discordance, based on serodiscordant.
Affectionacy is often used in relationship practices, affectional was a more encompassing proposed term for romantic desire/attraction, could include sexual/erotic futuency as well, often synonym with amorous/gamous while not essentially amato-relation. -Ap
MSM: a behavioral category commonly used in public health, created in the 1990s, describing men and male persons who engage in sexual activity with other men/male people, regardless of how they identify themselves.
Just as MLM, many people reclaim MSM without necessarily embracing manhood/maleness, such as Wolffian/DMAB sex workers and non-binary transfems/transgynes.
This flag is about actions, not attractions or orientations, so this includes straight MSM as well as other non-straight MSMs (gay, aspec, mspec/bi+…) and questioning/undefined/unlabeled MSM (any MSM comfortable with it). -Ap
Euversian: eugender alignment (eu-aligned) in galactian terms; someone who is aligned; positive connections with/attachments to gender(s) [positrois-aligned]; positively aligned with a particular gender or group of genders (not necessarily aligned with a specific gender).
Could be an umbrella term for all alignments that are not antiversian or singularian (plus ringularian), so nonsingularian.
It could represent simply being “aligned”, as opposed to nonaligned, unaligned, analigned (a-aligned/agender-aligned) and antaligned (anti-aligned/antalignment).
Antiversian: a galactian term for an ungender/antigender alignment (anti-aligned), experiencing negative connections/attachments to gender in general (negatrois-aligned/negative-aligned).
Antiverse/antiversal is defined as a universe made up/full of antimatter or an antigravity universe, sometimes called antiuniverse/antiuniversal, however an antiuniversian would be the opposite of universian.
The red circle represents an antiproton, as the color is commonly used to represent it. -Ap
Omniversian: experiencing every galactian/gender alignment (accessible/possible within one’s life experience and culture); pangalactian/omnigalactian; pan-aligned/omni-aligned (pangender alignment/omnigender alignment).
Omniverse/omniversal means all universes/multiverses. While the black hole represents boötian/singularian (cosmic void/singularity), this circle represents a white hole, the reversal form.
Unlike siderealian, synodian, vialactian and universian, this isn’t limited to X/M/F/N alignments and doesn’t include anterian, eventian or voidarian. That would be pxn-aligned/demipan-aligned. -Ap
Supernal alignment or heavengender alignment: a gender alignment specifically for the creatures lit inhabitants of Heaven, including divinekin, godkin, angelkin etc. and others that feel a deep connection to Heaven.
[Image description: A 7-striped flag, with colors pink, coral, deep gold, green, teal, cerulean, and blue. There is a partial white combined sun, moon, planet, and star symbol on a partial black circle in the middle of the flag. End ID.]
Vialactian: demigender/anterian version of universian; partly stellarian, partly solarian, partly lunarian, partly spacialian/xenic and partly singularian; eventian synodian or constellian atmosian/demixenic. Alt names: demiversian, semiversian, hemiversian, demiuniversian, semiuniversian, hemiuniversian, vialactean.
Transstellunar or transnebular: transneufem-aligned (trans stellenian); trans neufemale/neutrafemale-aligned and/or trans neutrowoman/neuwoman-aligned (trans stellarian+artemian); aligned with both transneutrality and transfemininity, trans-aligned neutrois-ness and womanhood &/or femaleness and neuterness (mülladic & neutersex/neuadic); unaligned and fem-aligned transness/transitude; transneu-aligned & transfem-aligned; transneularian/transnebularian.
Transstellar: transtellarian/transstelarian and/or transstellardic/transtellaradic; transneutral-aligned, transnull-aligned and/or trans abinary-aligned; trans non-aligned/unaligned; trans xeumelic/neumelic/nemelic/xemelic/xeunoxic/neunoxic/neunonic/nenoxic/nenonic/xeunonic (neumel/xeumel/neuyon/xeuyon/xemel/nemel/nenox-aligned).
Temporomandibular joint dysfunction, Conten’s syndrome, myofascial arthromyalgia,masticatory myalgia, craniomandibular or TMJ disorders (CMD, TMD, TMJD): a broad umbrella term referring to a variety of conditions that affect TM joints, jaw muscles of mastication and facial nerves that control jaw movement.
In my case, I was diagnosed with orofacial pain and jaw-deviation dystonia (JDD).
Using peach-red coral color in the middle around offwhite reds and pinks. -Ap
Video game addiction, also known as gaming disorder: problematic, compulsive use of video games that results in significant impairment to an individual’s ability to function in various life domains over a prolonged period of time, characterized by impaired control over gaming, increasing priority given to gaming over other activities to the extent that gaming takes precedence over other interests and daily activities, and continuation or escalation of gaming despite the occurrence of negative consequences.
Crossnominal: the phenomenon of having a name that does not traditionally align with one’s gender identity.
Also called Crossnomial.
Etymology
From English, “Cross” meaning “to transverse from one side to another” + “-nominal”, a suffix used to refer to names or the process of naming. Coined by Gent (Gender-Resource), 2021.
Flag
The crossnominal flag was created at the same time as the term by the coiner, which is myself. Flag by Gent (Gender-Resource), 2021. The flag consists of five horizontal stripes of the same size. From top to bottom, the stripes are jade green, burnt orange, white, lavender and strawberry red. The stripes have the following meanings:
The jade stripe represents women and females who use a name that is typically associated with males and/or masculinity in their culture.
The orange stripe represents men and males who use a name that is typically associated with females and/or femininity in their culture.
The white stripe represents the acknowledgment that names and their assigned gender are a social construction, therefore meaning that any assignment of gender to a name is ultimately arbitrary.

[Image description: A 7-striped flag. 3 stripes are in a gradient going from very dark teal to purple. 4 stripes are in a gradient from muted yellow to deep red. Half of a spiral galaxy symbol is in the middle of the flag. End ID.]
Anterian: partially galactian and partially something else – demigalactian/semigalactian/hemigalactian, demi-aligned.
[Image description: 5 muted horizontal stripes that are pink, purple, yellow, teal, and warm gray. There is a spiral galaxy symbol one the middle stripe. End ID.]
An alternate flag that is more similar to the other galactian alignment flags. Colors from both flags were selected from the M83 galaxy.
Reposted because I accidentally used the wrong term on the last post.
Eventian: partly singularian/voidarian and partly anything else; partially rejecting any and all ties to binary genders without exception; demivoid/partial genderless alignment; part nonaligned part something else; deminonaligned.
Also named as demisingularian/demivoidarian (semisingularian/semivoidarian, hemisingularian/hemivoidarian).
Based on event horizon.

Non-aligned or unaligned: rejecting binary gender/sex alignments; rejects all gender/sex alignments; aligning with none gender/sex; someone who does not experience strong alignment with either binary gender/sex. A stellar/singular person (stellarian/stellaradic, singularadic/singularian/voidarian, puckian/psamanthian).
Some definitions seem to be similar to abinary-aligned. This flag represents relationship with alignments, not reflecting necessarily one’s gender identity, as a nonaligned person can be (mid)binary or anonbinary, for example.
Delayed orgasm (DO), orgasmic disorder, Coughlan’s syndrome or anorgasmia (AO): a term for regular difficulty or an inability to reach orgasm, regardless of medical or sexual stimulation, causing personal distress. Can be considered a neurological, hormonal and psychological event.
Many asexuals were erroneously diagnosed with this, however anorgasmia is considered a sexual frustration/dissatisfaction, asexuality is not.
