Mavnix? Maverique equivalent of nixic (nixera/nixvir)

Mavnix ! :D

The flag uses the nixvir flag as a base, with the colors shifted to yellow/orange for maverique.

Also a definition since I haven't seen this term mentioned elsewhere.

Mavnix: a gender that is comprised of both genderless and maverine (maverique) aspects.

I assume this is the definition you mean? Just a maverique version of the other nixic definitions.

Whalegender/Genderwhale

A whalegender/genderwhale person can be someone whose gender:

• It's related/connected with whales.

• It's influenced by whales (by the sounds they make, by the way they swim, etc).

• It can be described as "A gender that is like a whale", or as a gender characterized by qualities associated with whales. Examples: "My gender is big/huge like a whale", "My gender is majestic like a whale", etc.

Dubgender

Came up with a label that makes sense:

dubgender

It means that you cannot trust that an existing gender identity label will fit you perfectly well.

Which means that, despite being a good label, a dubboy doesn’t really trust that the label of “boy” will be entirely accurate, and a dubgirl is a little iffy about the label of “girl” as well.

Thoughts?

Ametrinegender

[Image description: A flag composed by 7 vertical stripes, in a ratio of 15:11:2:10:2:11:15 (trust me, that’s cleaner than the other {gemstone}gender flags). The stripes are, respectively, purple, orange, yellow, off-white, yellow, orange and purple. End image description.]

Ametrinegender is a gender that’s aesthetically related to ametrines; it’s also androgynous, nonbinary and somewhat fluid.

It was coined by @polygenderqueen​ . I made the flag, but it was based on the colors of an ametrine, the design of rubygender/emeraldgender/sapphiregender flags and the final choice was theirs.

The colors of this flag were chosen not only as a mirror to those flags with regards to brightness, but also so it’s not too hard to reproduce them. Any shade of purple, orange, yellow and white can be used for this purpose in physical space. However, the colors are slightly muted here so they don’t bother people’s eyes too much.

Ametrine was chosen for being a blend of amethyst and citrine, just like androgyny can be defined as a blend of femininity and masculinity.

New m-spec/multi flag

(This is a mirror from my Pillowfort post here, that can also be boosted on the Fediverse here.)

[Image description: A flag divided in four quadrants of the same size. The upper left quadrant is pink, the upper right quadrant is white, the bottom left quadrant is yellow and the bottom right quadrant is purple. End of image description.]

M-spec is short for "multi spectrum". The spectrum thing is just for emphasis, since both multi and m-spec are umbrella terms for people who are attracted to more than one gender/multiple genders.

The labels multi and m-spec have existed for a while. Their purpose is to decenter bi or bi+ as umbrella terms, because even if bi ranges from "weak attraction to one gender and strong attraction to another gender" to "attraction to all genders", a lot of pan, ply (polysexual/polyromantic/etc.), toren, trixen, penulti, omni and other people don't feel represented by bi. Even so, there are experiences and struggles common to all multiply-attracted people, so having an umbrella term is useful.

This term and flag includes m-spec people who are a-spec, who don't want to use labels, who use labels that don't specify which/how many genders one's attracted to, who use -flexible labels or who otherwise feel more attraction towards certain genders than others, whose attraction is fluid, who use many labels, who only use bi or pan as labels, who use labels that are typically seen as not m-spec and so on, as long as they are able to be attracted to more than one gender.

This flag is for all multi/m-spec people, not just multisexual/multiromantic. Multiqueerplatonic, multialterous, etc. are included.

There are already other flags for this, but most of them are not widely recognized or liked, and the most popular one is the combination of bi, ply and pan flags, which helps people recognize it for what it is, but doesn't help people who feel alienated by those labels.

The design of this flag is meant to be different from most pride flags so it's easier to recognize for colorblind people among other common pride flags, while still being easy to reproduce with fabric or while drawing, since there are no complicated symbols or shapes.

Color meanings:

Pink: Represents attraction in general, as well as passion. It's about m-spec people being united because of their attraction to more than one gender. Can also represent people who feel like they are just "attracted by (some) people" or who don't specify how their attraction works.

Pink is, after all, a color widely used for sexuality and love.

White: Represents the possibility of being able to be attracted to all genders. Also the possibility of having an attraction to multiple genders that isn't fluid; for instance, just because someone dates a nonbinary person and later a woman doesn't mean that their attraction changed.

White is the combination of all colors of light (so, all genders), and is also achromatic; you can't change the hue of pure white.

Light orange: Represents the diversity of m-spec people. For instance: a lot of trans people, especially nonbinary people, are m-spec; a lot of a-spec people are m-spec; a lot of non-monogamous people are m-spec; there are lots of different possibilities of labels when you are m-spec; but you don't need to be those things or use other labels to be m-spec.

Yellow and certain shades of orange remind me of the Sun. The Sun is strong and basically impossible to ignore; diversity makes a community strong, and the diversity of the m-spec community is hard to ignore.

Purple: Represents the possibility of not being able to be attracted to all genders (while still being attracted to more than one), and the possibility of having fluid attraction.

Purple is the color of change. It's also used in flags such as toren and trixen (both m-spec orientations that don't include attraction to all genders), and its meaning in other flags is sometimes both binary genders/a combination of them (so: more than one gender, but just a few) or nonbinary people (so: a large group of genders, but not all).

I know that maybe not all nuances of m-spec identity are represented here, and they don't all have their own color, but I wanted to have something broader and more meaningful than "attraction to X, to Y and to Z", while still easy to memorize/draw/produce.

This flag was made by me (Aster), with input from other m-spec people at a Discord server.

A full version of this flag is here, and a more saturated version of it (for physical flags/merchandise, for instance) can be found here.

Feel free to spread it around!

i still feel like gendervoid describes me, but everyone keeps saying it’s agender and that’s not how i feel it?

i feel like my gender is very vast but sparse. like if you just look at one part it looks like there’s nothing there, but at the same time it’s incomprehensibly large and all the little bits add up to a very massive, intense gender that can’t be pinned down.

where it begins and ends is really hard to find because each individual portion of it seems so empty.

but maybe that is a form of agender? or almost-agender? i don’t really know. but the word void suits it very well because a void has emptiness but also a massive scale.

it’s like my gender is emptiness itself, but it still has a strong presence.

Caelgender: a gender aesthetically associated with space (the cosmos).

caelgender

definition: an aesthetically-centered gender that is largely focused on space related things (such as stars, aliens, planets, galaxies, and black holes)

[nonbinarycomet]

null gender

definition: Undefinable, intangible, the uncreation of gender. Its taking everything everyone throws at you, saying male, female, pick one, pick this, pick that, and taking it in, only to expel it, poisonous crystals erupting from your skin, armor against those who don’t listen.

A “I don’t want a label because labels don’t fit but they help shut people up sometimes, so here have a label” gender label. A fall-back plan, a red herring to give people who can’t conceptualize the absence, void, nullification of gender. It is, and is not. All and none. Nonexistant but present.

Some ideas for a femmegender flag!

Purple is a feminine color, but doesn’t have the same GIRL connotations that pink does. The fade out of shades from dark to light is meant to represent the variations in gender while still associating with the core/foundation of femme.

The mint/green are meant to represent the sort of ‘absence’ of a binary gender/being a girl, as well as give a bit of variety of color for those that dont like the plain purple+white design.

"Demisexuals are the least oppressed people on an entire spectrum of definitely not oppressed people. Demisexuality is bullshit, everybody feels that way, they're just normal people"

Oh okay so... then, when people study the higher rates of depression and anxiety for sexual minorities, demis should have nice low rates like straight people! Right?

These two tables show the mean scores on the PHQ-9 (which measures depression) and the GAD-7 (which measures anxiety). Broken down by gender and sexual orientation. And organized from lowest to highest scores.

Straight cis people, as you would expect, are at the top left of both tables, with the lowest scores.

Demisexuals scored the highest.

On both tests.

Y’all can pry alterous attraction from my cold dead hands.

It’s such an important concept. As a community we cannot let it die.
