i can tell it’s a masc day when i get crippling dysphoria due to my fem body, and i can tell it’s a fem day when i get crippling imposter syndrome because it feels too close to being cis

so all in all, truly gender-neutral, no gender or all gender days are the best

Being genderfloren is half identifying as genderfluid and half as nonbinary and wishing there were more posts about your identity xd

Hello everyone! First post; I'm a bit nervous... I hope you're doing well!

I still don't have a clear idea of what exactly I could do with this blog, but there is one thing I'd like to share: it has to do with the Genderfluid Fragment Gender System (GDGS), a system of terms that specify what range of genders one is fluid between, and the issue of underrepresentation of androgynous genders in some of these.

(For extra clarity, androgyny refers to a state of being both masculine and feminine, as opposed to gender-neutrality, which means neither masculine nor feminine, although the two are often used interchangeably, hence the lack of regard for the distinction.)

For those who are here to learn, the main terms in the GFGS are:

genderfae (being fluid only between female, feminine and neutral genders, never a masculine gender);

genderfaun (male, masculine and neutral, never feminine);

genderflor (only neutral, never masculine or feminine).

By adding suffixes to these, you can extend the range of them a bit:

genderfaer (female, feminine, neutral, and partially masculine genders but never binary male);

genderfaunet (male, masculine, neutral, and partially feminine but never binary female);

genderflorer (neutral and partially masculine, but never binary male or feminine);

genderfloret (neutral and partially feminine, but never binary female or masculine);

genderfloren (neutral, partially masculine, and partially feminine, but never binary male or binary female).

There's also the genderfrith root and its variations, for people who always feel a connection to masculinity or femininity:

genderfrith (fluid between any masculine and/or feminine genders, binary or not, but never neutral);

genderfrither (binary female, feminine, masculine, never binary male or neutral);

genderfrithet (binary male, masculine, feminine, never binary female or neutral);

genderfrithen (partially masculine and partially feminine, never binary female, binary male, or neutral).

Finally, if you're fluid between all genders, that's called genderfruct.

In short, at the beginning of my gender discovery, I thought I was fluid only between a state of gender neutrality and one of androgyny, and I was surprised to see no term amongst so many of these to refer to said experience!

I looked to genderflor, but it does not, by definition, include genders that are in any way related to femininity or masculinity, so by extension androgyny. So how do you refer to that?

I felt like the system was a bit incomplete. So! I decided to take initiative and COIN new genders that extend the possible range of the main GFGS terms!

The actual names for the first 3 were coined by the blog @neopronouns, since I did not have enough creativity with words—I only had the flags already in mind. He just added a suffix to the genders, "-an", which is short for androgynous in this case. Genius!

So, I present to you...

Genderfaean (for pronunciation, a tip is to keep in mind that the root word is "fae", then you just add "an"): being fluid only between neutral genders and any gender that is feminine in some way—including when it is in combination with masculine, therefore androgynous. Masculinity can never be experienced on its own. (Example: fluid between girl, non-binary girl, agender, androgyne).

Flag is the first, on the left; I put the genderfae flag to the right for comparison. The pink gradient stands for femininity, and I replaced the green-to-yellow gradient (which stood for neutrality) with a purple-to-yellow gradient, representing neutrality (yellow) and androgyny (purple, which I colorpicked from the non-binary flag).

Genderfaunan: being fluid only between neutral genders and any gender which is masculine in some way—including when it is in combination with feminine, therefore androgynous. Femininity can never be experienced on its own. (Example: fluid between boy, demiboy, neutrois, boygirl)

Genderfaun flag on the right for comparison. The blue gradient at the bottom stands for masculinity; again I replaced the orange-to-yellow gradient (which stood for neutrality) with a purple-to-yellow gradient.

Genderfloran: being fluid only between neutral genders and androgynous genders, never solely masculine or feminine genders. (Example: fluid between neutrois and androgyne)

Genderflor flag on the right for comparison; I replaced the green/orange-to-yellow gradients with purple-to-yellow ones (it's symmetrical).

Coining these next two terms myself:

Genderfloretan: being fluid only between neutral, androgynous, and partially feminine genders—never binary female or male. Can experience masculinity, but only in combination with femininity. (Example: fluid between neutrois, boygirl, demigirl).

Genderfloret flag on the right for comparison. The darker orange stripes in both flags represent partial femininity. Replaced green-to-yellow with purple-to-yellow.

Genderfloreran: being fluid only between neutral, androgynous, and partially masculine genders—never binary male or female. Can experience femininity, but only in combination with masculinity. (Example: fluid between agender, androgyne, non-binary boy).

Genderflorer flag on the right for comparison. The darker green stripes in both flags represent partial masculinity. Replaced orange-to-yellow with purple-to-yellow.

All the other genders of the GFGS I didn't extend like this already included the possibility of experiencing androgynous genders (e.g. genderfaer: female, feminine, neutral, and partially masculine, so this means this partial masculinity can also be experienced in combination with femininity).

That's it! Thanks for reading this through! Hopefully someone will find these useful :) [smiley]

It is UNFAIR how often YouTube recommends this video to me. I'm instantly put into a Soukoku mood every time I see the thumbnail, let alone the whole shebang. 😍

In light of some of the many things happening across the world this year, I thought this Pride Month needed a special illustration.

Happy Pride Month, may we all stay safe, look after each other, and keep painting our rainbows, no matter what. 🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

it's always how very normal Dazai is about Chuuya, but let's remember Chuuya is also very normal about Dazai:

Nakahara "I've got a hundred and ninety ways of exacting my revenge on Dazai and this is the second mildest of them all" Chuuya

Chuuya keeping track of how many women's hearts Dazai's broken

Chuuya still keeping his phone number the four years he was gone and drunkenly calling him

Chuuya coming up with equally insane insults

Beast Chuuya's wish to kill Dazai someday, and refusing to let anyone else do it

Dazai might be a little a lot more obvious about his behavior toward Chuuya, but Chuuya isn't so sly either

So, I don't know how many Bsd fans are also Fate/Stay Night fans...... BUT I AM and this is the only reason this exists Fate is one of my favorite series and I was listening to the Fate/Zero ost one day because it's one of my fav ost ever... and I started thinking about a possible crossover and it kinda snowballed from there lol Explanations and ramblings under the cut!

For who doesn't know what Fate/Stay Night is about: the gist of it is there's a recurring event where seven mages (masters) summon seven heroic spirits (servants) who fight between each other to win the Holy Grail. Basic things to know are: servants are divided in classes and each has a Noble Phantasm, aka a servant's ultimate weapon/ability; each master has three command spells which compel the servant to obey to three absolute orders; servants need mana to keep existing. said mana is usually provided by the master, but can also be transferred with bodily fluids (that includes sex) The pairs I had thought of for this au are: - berserker!Chuuya + Dazai (in this case the berserker's typical madness happens only with Corruption, which is Chuuya's Noble Phantasm and can be stopped only using a command spell) - saber!Akutagawa + Atsushi - caster!Nikolai + Fyodor - lancer!Bram + Aya - assassin!Nathaniel + Margareth - archer!Mark Twain + Lucy I have absolutely NO idea who to cast as rider lol Kunikida is the Church's overseer though (an impartial judge for the Holy War) I've thought about these combinations for fun since I don't have an overarching plot or anything, just some little disconnected scenes, but I liked the possible interactions with these pairs. I wanted to have characters from the main factions in the series (so like, the Port Mafia, the Agency, the Guild...) but since servants are heroic spirits of the past (and in this au they're not their irl literary counterparts, but characters on their own. Chuuya's real identity would be Arahabaki, etc) I wanted to pick characters who also could have a particular design while fitting the role........... I wanted to put Lovecraft in there too but he's definitely a berserker and I'm not giving up Chuuya for it lol This wip has been eating my brain for literal months, so here it is!! It got me back into doodling just for fun so it was a good time. I actually have more sketches but I feel like these are already a lot lol...... so I'll post those at a later time (also because I'm rewatching ubw now so I might end up doing more....)

Wanted to brighten the scene and increase the saturation. Man I wish I could have seen Dead Apple when it was in theaters just to hear people going crazy when he showed up

For comparison, original vs edit!
