#ectobinary

[epiceneandroid]

on semihiatus so can’t create a flag for this but: gender modality that i coined that describes me better than transgender

ectogender: a gender modality that indicates that you are transitioning outside of something, rather than towards something. can be used on its own as a connotation of “transitioning outside gender without necessarily transitioning to anything” or with modifiers (i.e. masc, fem, binary, neutral) as a signifier you’re transitioning outside of that quality. as an example, im ectobinary, meaning im transitioning outside/away from the binary but not specifically towards any gender because (pxn-aligned epicene agenderspec xenic spec)

have fun with this new fun gender modality

feel free to make flags for ectogender and ectobinary and mayhaps even ectomasc and ectofem and even more terms in the ecto- category

(btw, the ecto- prefix came from either the Greek or Latin commonly used medical term for “outside of”, i.e outside of an organ. I was gonna go with the ab- prefix but that may have been used for a different modality whoops)
