About Aetherine.

plain text: About Aetherine.

Aetherine is an umbrella term for identities that center around otherworldliness/unearthliness and ethereality, and all things related to these concepts.

While aetherine is primarily made for genders, it can be used in a non-gendered context as well, such as attraction, orientation, menres, alderns, chronos, ect.

There is no "right" or "wrong" way to identify as aetherine, as it can encompass a very wide range of experiences and should not and is not intended to be confined to a strict box.

Aetherine is not a xenogender, nor under any other umbrellas. It's a term of its own, and should be treated as such. Although, overlap with other labels are definitely of possibility.

Themes that fall under aetherine, but are not limited to:

– Having a connection to, or simply being, ethereality, otherworldliness, or unearthliness.

– One's identity not being able to be understood by earthly ideas or concepts.

– One's identity being unable to be contained by the bounds of earth, and/or is too large or too confusing by earth standards to be understood.

– One's identity having a connection to space in some way, and/or the objects and concepts that surround it.

– Having some disconnect with earthly things and concepts, and/or having a connection to unearthly things.

– One's identity being above earth in some fashion.

– One's identity being incomprehensible or unknowable to earth beings.

– One's nonhumanity being related to, or connected to, unearthly/ethereal things.

– An identity that does not originate from earth.

– An identity that is too far away to be seen from, or by earth.

what's the word for aetherine genders? aetherines? like how xenic genders are xenogenders, and kenochoric genders are kenochords

Aetheresques ! /info

[watercolormogai]

some aetheresques in the queue woooo

[aetherive]

I feel like I should say that 'aetheresques' refers to all terms under aetherine and its not a gender-exclusive term

But you can add the type of term it is to aetheresque to provide explanation as to what the type of aetheresque it is

For instance, a gender-aetheresque (or aetheresque-gender) refers to an aetheresque that is a gender, while a chrono-aetheresque refers to a chronosian aetheresque.

Does this make sense
