Will you do Arisso terms? It’s not mentioned in your Rentry so I just wanted to ask

I still need to update my Rentry ( brainfog and COVID recovery are making formatting… hard. i’m sorry ) but from what I can see it seems to be a fine concept.

The flag format is a little complex for my eyes but I can try to work with it if you’d specifically like a flag / term from me !!

( I’m assuming you mean Arissomei / Arissodic here, if this is a disambiguation please send me a link to what you mean! )

[isobug]

I really enjoy this format so woe. Anattractional Beam be upon ye

hi. i made some images.

feel free to take them and use for whatever you may need them for. no credit required

Can we get a general loveless flag? We previously requested this on another blog, however they reached out to us saying they had zero ideas and therefore couldn't do it (which, fair), and you were suggested instead as somewhere to send this ask

So the general loveless flag being for anyone, aspec, allospec, neither, both, etc who is in some way disconnected from the concept of love, does not feel love, may doubt that they feel love, or rejects the idea of experiencing love.

Here you go !! Sorry about the wait and I hope you enjoy what I came up with !!

a bunch of posts going back to March have been given ALT text / IDs and added to the queue! if you don't want to see them than please temporarily mute "#bug.rb"

I’ve updated my Rentry in my pinned to reflect my current stance on Wikis

( specifically the LGBTA Miraheze Wiki and it's strange new policy which I talked about in this post which has the screenshot and more of my specific thoughts / issues )

( Image ID. A Rentry screenshot, the first paragraph says "You have permission to put my terms and flags on wikis (like the MOGAI Miraheze Wiki) as long as you don’t change/remove/add anything (like definitions or color meanings) and give credit/link back for ppl trying to archive!!"

The second paragraph says "While this policy does apply to the LGBTA Miraheze Wiki and it's new off-shoot, I want to be very clear that", the following is highlighted, "I disagree heavily with their policy of not allowing clear & SOURCED warnings in articles that certain coiners/creators and their works are transphobic / exclusionary.", the highlight ends.

"The statement that Exclusionism and Bigotry are "subjective" when the LGBTA wiki has articles that give clear definitions and examples of Exclusionism/Exclus Groups & Bigotry [each group has a link to it's wiki article with it's definitions] makes no sense to me." The following is highlighted, "If those definitions are sourced & allowed to stay up on the wiki, you should have a clear reference point. )

"More detail/thoughts here," [the link from the top of this post is here] but until that policy is walked back or radically fixed I would prefer my works be put on on alternate wikis first, such as the MOGAI or Nonbinary Miraheze wiki." End ID. )

Here is the policy just in case the above post link breaks / for context

( Image ID. A discord screenshot featuring two messages from user Jeb_ CC.

The first says "Small reminder that I won't be accepting wiki edits that states creators/coiners as exclusionist, phobic, etc; considering a lot of what counts as phobic+exclusionist is very biased and up to personal interpretation. (like how some argue that bi lesbians are bi-phobic). Also won't accept edits that state they're racist, sexist, etc. What the creators have done/what they do should only be included in the wiki text if it directly relates to the context of that page."

The second says "But we shouldn't be having these call outs and accusations in the wiki. The wiki is meant to be unbiased and informative, not a stage for witchhunting. " End ID. )

I'm so honored you made art with my flag redesign !! thank you so much for tagging it so that I could see and share it !!

alright i uhh made a lil dude, again. based on @isobug 's aroace flag redesign. i've only posted one here before but I've done plenty of them (the lil robot dudes i mean), i just haven't posted them on tumblr.

ANYWAY, this was quit a bit more difficult since its only four colours including white (very nice off white btw) so i had to forgo the outline that i usually do. i made up the difference though by making it an 8 frame animation. anyways i hope you like it

also now that i actually have mutuals ima tag yall because this is what you signed up for (whether you knew that or not is irrelevant).

reblogging for visibility

I did my own digging for a bit and sadly it seems like @neutrois doesn't know the source, I looked on genderqueerid ( @gqid ) and couldn't find it either. I think emailing gqid or other other older Neutrois sites like "www (dot) neutrois (dot) com/" ( no dots so it won't get filtered ) might be a good idea?

The oldest post I can find with both the flag and the meanings are this post by @pridearchive, but I'm not sure if they created it or not

though this archived file of the flag on the Nonbinary wiki attributes it to pridearchive "https://web (dot) archive (dot) org/web/20150505230621/https://nonbinary (dot) org/wiki/File:Neutrois_flag.jpg"

( also sourced here on the article itself "https://web (dot) archive (dot) org/web/20151105065723/https://nonbinary (dot) org/wiki/Neutrois" )

which is in turn used as the attribution on wikipedia "https://en (dot) wikipedia (dot) org/wiki/File:Neutrois_Flag.svg"

Does anyone know the origin of the neutrois flag?

I'm trying to look for it, but all I'm finding is a bunch of posts, all using the same flag, with the same colour meanings, and without any sources. No one seems to know where it comes from, but it had to have come from somewhere, I really want to find it.

All I ended up finding was the origin of the genderqueer flag and old nonbinary flags smh. /lh

The genderqueer flag is from @gqid, and the nonbinary flags I'm talking about are these (link 1) (link 2) (by @uminotenshi)

THIS IS SO AMAZING I LOVE CER!!!! Tysm for tagging me so I could see this amazing art <3 !!!

Intercusper? ❤️ Btw, I love the objectum one you made<33

Quick note before we begin, this Kid’s Image ID was written by my friend @nerdiwolverine and only edited by me!

Intercusper is a term and flag coined by @isobug and inspired by the term Cusper (specifically the flag and definition which were compiled by @beyond-mogai-pride-flags) describing someone whose gender identity is on the cusp of being transgender or gender non-conforming in a way directly related to or caused by the individual’s intersex variation or experience!

This Magical Kid has a Heavenly Bodies Theme! It uses He/They/She/It pronouns and Cel/Cer/Celes/Celeself, Glim/Glimmer/Glimmers/Glimmself, Rev/Rever/Rie/Reverself, Halo/Halos/Haloself, and Cherub/Cherubs/Cherbuself Neopronouns!

Her name is Jemima, a biblical name that means dove, but they’ll also go by Gem! Glimmer can smite enemies, which essentially means burn them to a goddamn crisp once halo gets halos hands on them. Well, technically all the fire does is burn out the evilness in their heart/all ill will but it certainly LOOKS like they can just set people on fire at a touch. It’s very useful for intimidation purposes. They can do this to allies as well- it has no effects other than setting them on fire, but the fire doesn’t hurt. So basically Jemima can create an infinite fire source by lighting an ally on fire and pointing them towards a particularly flammable group of enemies.

Its Magical Kid Weapon is a flaming sword which… honestly can’t do much? It’s hot, sure, but if an enemy’s close enough for Gem to even USE their sword they are close enough to smite.

A useless fact about rever is that rev is…. A tiny bit outcast by the general Magical Kid population. You see, the main antagonist (who will here be gaining the moniker The One) has a very heavy holy theme, and when they corrupt civilians they take on an Angel theme. Essentially, Jemima’s appearance is the equivalent of someone with long black hair and red eyes ominous standing around. Sure, a lot of magical kids are friendly, but most of the older ones steer clear. It’s a little grating on their confidence. Another useless face is that their eyes are always closed.

I managed to find the original flag!!

this is the original image url from the Genderbeast system coining post! ( EDIT : typo... )

[Image ID: A MOGAI flag with seven stripes, all of which are the same width except for the middle stripe, which is twice as thick as the rest. In order, the stripes are black, muted dark blue, muted light blue, tan, darker tan, muted dark brown, and black. /End ID.]

( How I got it : Tumblr hosts images at their own urls independent of posts themselves, so 2 get this all I did was use inspect element on the Wayback Machine capture of the coining post, hovered over where the image should have loaded in, found the image url in the inspect panel, and visited the live version to get the image! )

[IDs in alt text]

Genderbeast(ic) Flag Remake

[PT: Genderbeast / Genderbeastic Flag Remake. End PT]

Originally coined by @/hypnosiacon, the definition is: " Genderbeastic / Genderbeast: ‎A gender system that can be described as your gender just feels like a "Beast" " The flag was lost so I did my best to recreate it from the still available terms under this system + the page available on internet archive. I highly doubt it looks exactly the same, but I hope it's similar enough!

Tagging: @radiomogai @hypnosiarchive (if you want me to take this down or simply untag you pls lmk! You don't seem to have been active in quite some time is all.)

All tags are simply for reach, I am not the coiner of this term.

[isobug]

I've talked about it at length in this post before, but I do want to bring up two specific instances of this new policy being actively harmful to trans and mspec people re: warnings which makes me view it more harshly

( EDIT ) Also regarding the "slippery slope" of adding in things like "voting history", that shouldn't be an issue as long as there's a simple guideline about keeping things relevant. You could even use those exact examples as guidelines for what isn't acceptable or needed in a warning.

Putting it under the cut but tw for transmisogyny/transphobia/queerphobia/exclusionism and examples/discussion of these things

I was trying to make an edit to the pages featuring a certain Gay Man's flag (specifically the Uranian page first), made by one Val/entin Bely/aev, to potentially warn others (but especially other transfems) that Valentin is Transmisogynistic/Transphobic and his accounts are not safe for Transfems/Trans gays. This edit was rejected under this new policy.

I specifically cited his twitter accounts and certain tweets. He has other accounts and has made similar statements on those. It's not very hard to find

(the last one is a little less clear out of the context of his whole account but he genuinely seems to insist that all of the the trans-inclusive gay men flags are "trans-exclusive/exclude cis gays" and frequently bashes on them.)

I hope I don't have to explain why his narrative of "GNC men are wrongfully transitioning/becoming transfem because people hate men" is Transmisogynistic and why "there's no point in being proud of being queer" is Queerphobia.

(Plus, having a flag exclusively for "homosexual men" as The Uranian Flag on the wiki is misrepresentative of the history and scope of Uranians/Urnings. Despite how Valentin uses it, it does describe a a varying set of gender and sexual identities. I'd really think the LGBTA page needs to be closer to the Nonbinary Wiki's Uranian page in scope. Not to mention that there's no page or even mention of Urningin/Urninde which is a shame.)

The second example is a rejected edit to the Junian (Exclusive) page. Junian is a sibling term to Oshian and Erosian, both of which were coined by exclusionists to be exclusionary terms (this is cited on both pages with sources) and are explicitly anti-mspec Lesbians/Gays. These accounts are also not safe to browse for those trying to avoid exclusionist/queerphobic content.

Junian was coined by the same person who made Erosian and is equally exclusionary, yet my edit to the Junian page that simply added the same information that was present on the Erosian page was rejected under this new policy.

Erosian info and it's cited resource

Junian info (there are no cited resources on the page + even less context about why the term was made)

Citeable exclusionism being ignored aside, this also just makes the Junian page terrible in contrast with the Erosian and Oshian pages. I should not have to go to a different, older page for it's sibling term made by the same person to get the actual background for why they were made (and if those reasons were even correct).

Sorry for rambling. I'm not sure how to wrap up my thoughts on this other than repeating the tags on my original post about it

"I cannot tell you how much LESS USEFUL this makes the wiki... and actually if someone is citing a person saying openly 'i hate this marginalized group' it's not 'personal interpretation'. it's just exclusionism and bigotry'"

Let's talk about term sourcing.

So a few months ago, the LGBTA wiki announced a revision of its policy on declaring an author's personal biases in its references. This..... didn't go down well, and I went ahead and brought it up with Jeb the same day to figure out exactly what xe was thinking and why this policy was announced. The conversation summarises to something like this:

We don't want to call people exclusionist on the wiki because it means we're making the wiki biased

Exclusionist could be used to mean lots of different things so we don't want to use it at all

Slippery slope: If we say a creator didn't like trans people, we could end up adding warnings about a creator's political alignment, voting history and favourite colour of underwear.

At that point it was gone midnight with a pretty stressful day lined up for me the next day, so I decided to leave it there and get back to it later. In very typical fashion I then forgot to get back to it later, until now, when I can actually talk to the users of tumblr about this.

So, I'd like to discuss a possible different solution for this policy. I understand the community on Tumblr doesn't like it, and quite frankly, I'm not a fan either. There are a lot of pros and cons with this policy, so lemme list them out, starting with the pros:

The wiki is supposed to be a source of information, not a source of personal opinion

Different users have different views and understandings of of phobia

As a wiki, it shouldn't be biased

There's probably a few more, but I can't think of too many currently. On the other hand, the cons:

If a user wants to read more about the term, they don't know if (eg.) the tumblr blog they're about to open is phobic. So any further reading from the wiki is a big leap of faith.

We literally have a list of identities that we recognise as good faith, and so it shouldn't be too hard to warn if a source is against these.

We also have a ban on queerphobia, ableism, racism, exclusionism and abuse on the wiki itself.

And I'll leave that at three as well, just to be fair.

So what do we make of this over here? I'd be curious to hear Tumblr's feedback, and anything that I think is really good (from either side of the debate) I'll probably bring up with Jeb in a couple days.

my hoard blog is @centlpede and this is my Notion site ( which is more organized but still a work-in-progress atm ) !!

okay wait everyone send me your hoards this is required /lh /t

[isobug]

edited to Actually include the word "Hermaphrodyke" because I thought I did in the OP but someone asked for clarification and I realized my brain literally skipped and thought that I typed it out fully but. I didn't ?? Made that entire paragraph more clear as well

Sorry it took me so long to correct this.... thank you anon and sorry for any confusion !! ;;

Intersex Dyke flag

This is a personal reclamation flag I made for myself, combining the Carpenter Intersex flag with the Dyke flag by ari-the-demigod.

Made because a lot of the potential linguistic origins of "Dyke" tend to be connected to intersexism in some way.

( Especially as a shortened version of the H-slur, coming from "morphodyke"/"morphadike", and considering a slur which is a direct combination of both exists- Hermaphrodyke -and is still used. )

You can refer to this flag / symbol under any reclaimed term ( Hermaphrodite, Hermaphrodyke, etc. ) but if you don't feel comfortable reclaiming the H-slur at all ( understandable ) and want a singular compound term than you could also call it the "Interdyke" flag !! ( or come up with your own terms. I don't mind !! )

Here's the symbol by itself with the plain flag ( no circle ) if you want to reposition it or put it in an icon or something.

Free for anyone who is Intersex and a Dyke in some way ( same rules as my Dykegender / Genderdyke post ), Perisex people do not be weird!

All of the credit links here have been fixed / updated and I've archived each flag on @centlpede so that they don't break again ( with additional pings to @/radiomogai just in case @/centlpede ever goes down. ) Sorry for the additional pings everyone !!

Thank you so much to @garden-of-flags for letting me know the links were broken !!

Sapphic + Achillean / Sapphillean symbol flags

Flags in order: MLM + WLW, Sapphic Achillean, Sapphicchillean, Sapphillean, Eclipsean, Trans Sapphillean.

Made with my Sapphic + Achillean / Sapphillean symbol which you can find here alongside another Sapphilean split-flag!

EDIT: Here is an alternate design of the 4th flag (Sapphillean) by @sapphic-boy with some symbols!

In order these are Original, edited higher contrast version by me (I couldn't see the second-to-last stripe on the original with my visual disability), and a darkened version for those with sensitive eyes.

[isobug]

I've finally been able to update this post with credit for the oldest / second oldest distinct Nonbinary flag designs thanks to @ryanyflags so please consider reblogging the version with attribution links !!

Nonbinary flags

( ID : Two flags. The first has four horizontal stripes, in the following colors: orange, white, mossy green and black. The second has five horizontal stripes, in the following colors: orange, yellow, white, mossy green and black. End ID. )

These were made because I found out that the creator of the most commonly used Nonbinary flag had some frankly incorrect and hurtful (at least to myself as an Intersex non-"DFAB" who uses it the way I do) opinions on Genderqueer people and on the label Genderqueer itself. As well as things like this on nir blog (I hope I don't have to explain why it's uncomfortable, especially in the context of the other post). Later edit, this as well.

This is not me saying you have to use this flag or that I hate you if you use the most popular one or anything btw. I've simply just made my own NB flags to use in edits/icons etc. for my own comfort.

These are inspired by this Nonbinary flag:

( ID : A flag with four horizontal stripes, in the following colors: black, white, orange and neon green. End ID. )

which is the second design posted here and is the second oldest known and distinct Nonbinary flag design, along with it's sibling flags. There is an older flag here ( by the same creator, the only difference being a purple stripe ) that I also want to acknowledge as a retroactive inspiration.

( Thanks to @ryanyflags for finding the source for this flag! It was previously uploaded without attribution to the LGBTA wiki and I could not have found it without his help. If you shared the version without attribution please consider resharing it! )

I moved it around a bit and adjusted the colors, I made the green to be more grey to mimic the Agender flag. There's a five-stripe version just for those who'd like a yellow-orange in there.

( ID : Two flags. The first has four horizontal stripes, in the following colors: black, mossy green, white and orange. The second has five horizontal stripes, in the following colors: black, mossy green, white, yellow and orange. End ID. )

Here are some flipped versions if you'd prefer them for whatever reason (maybe to be closer to the original format of the older flag above?)

Free for anyone to use! You can also use this along with any other Nonbinary flag or flags you like or already use. I don't care as long as what ne said is taken seriously / not endorsed. ( Yes this includes nir flag! )

[isobug]

I forgot to add this to the disclaimer - just like other similar terms ( and more specifically, Mullerian and Wolffian ) you should not label anyone as Mullwolf / Wolfmull unless it's someone who explicitly uses the label(s) and wishes for others to refer to them as such. Please try to always be respectful of others !!

Mullwolf / Wolfmull

Mullerian + Wolffian flag and symbol as well as two combo terms. Intended for intersex people who would find the term useful for whatever reason ( hence the purple stripes. )

Made by combining the Mullerian and Wolffian flags and symbols from here. I have another alternative symbol somewhere but I can't find it right now. When I do i'll post it separately and link it here.

Here are the plain symbols for repositioning or use elsewhere. in order: with outline and plain black.

Made on request for anon but free for anyone to use anywhere. This was in my drafts for a few months and I'm very low energy so if there are any formatting, spelling, or other mistakes / inaccuracies I apologize. ( Coiner is intersex. )

No strange comments or arguments please. I really don't have the brain power at the moment, i'm just going to delete it and block. Thank you for understanding.

fixed the image quality of the Archivetum and Archivetix flags !!

Archivetum, Archivetra, Archivetsic, and Archivetix

Archivetum : One who is Objectum for Archives of any kind ( they may be physical or digital, academic or personal, etc. )

Archivetra : One who is Objectra for Archives of any kind ( they may be physical or digital, academic or personal, etc. )

Archivetsic : One who is Objectsic for Archives of any kind ( they may be physical or digital, academic or personal, etc. )

Archivetix : One who is Objectix for Archives of any kind ( they may be physical or digital, academic or personal, etc. )

The general layout of the flag is based on pictures of archives as well as archival websites. Blue-grey for the steel shelves present in many archives as well as the layout of online archives usually being some kind of grey ( especially on wikis ), brown / beige for the color of storage boxes and folios that archival materials are usually placed in ( as well as the color of a standard font / PC folder icon ), and Green / Red-pink for the color markers / labels often put onto archived materials / files as organizational indicators.

Made for self-indulgent purposes but free for anyone to use !! If you coin anything for specific archives under these terms please feel free to tag me, I'd love to see it.
