"abinary people can be gay, lesbian, veldian & straight" & "orientations that are explicitly inclusive of abinary people need more visibility and to be taken more seriously" are two statements that can and should coexist.
i see way too much "abinary people can be lesbian etc." and not nearly enough people lifting up orientations that are more explicit in our genders or in people's attraction to us. tbh, this is true for midbinary genders too. there's way more "nonbinary people can use [orientation with binary connotations]" and not enough "look at these orientations that honour us".
trixic, toric, enbian and other mestric labels for specific genders deserve as much love as lesbian, sapphic, gay, achillean, veldian.
not to forget there are many people who are both! for some people, "gay" just doesn't tell the full story and they might identify as a toric gay specifically.
all abinary experiences of orientation deserve visibility.

if you think you're "validating", defending or affirming neopronouns and neopronoun users by saying "they're just used by neurodivergent kids and don't harm anyone"
you're wrong.
what you're doing is limiting neopronouns to a very specific group. you're implying that "they just don't know better" so they use neopronouns. that "they will grow out of it eventually". not to mention that the constant conflation of neurodivergence with "being childlike" is super annoying and condescending.
i've been saying this shit for literal years. i'm 23. i exclusively use neopronouns. would you like to know what happens to me on a regular basis? i get mocked, insulted, harassed for daring to use neopronouns "at my fossil age" by queer people of all ages, but especially teens, the very people you all say that neopronouns "are for".
if your acceptance of neopronouns is tied to ridiculous criteria like age or neurotype and leads to harassment of people who don't fit the criteria, it's not acceptance. it's either acceptance for all neopronoun users or it's not acceptance at all.
after all, my current favourite neopronouns, ze/hir, were used by leslie feinberg, *as a literal queer elder*.

people thinking that all afab nonbinary people are inherently moving towards masculinity and all amab nonbinary people are inherently moving towards femininity.
this is exorsexism.
this idea is often used to justify using the terms transmasculine and transfeminine in some kind of universally applicable way, but it's based on a gross oversimplification of the gender spectrum as a slider between male and female/masculine and feminine.
there is an infinite number of directions for an amab nonbinary person to go in. femininity is not the only one just because the gender binary says so. they could transition into an in between space, considering themself androgynous rather than masc or fem. they could transition into neutrality. they could transition into nonbinary masculinity. they could transition out of gender altogether. they could transition into a gender that has no ties to the binary. they could transition into fluidity. they could transition into an infinite number of things. the same is true for an afab nonbinary person.
take xenogenders for example. if an afab nonbinary person identifies as a specific xenogender, they'd be considered more masculine than before, but if an amab nonbinary person identified as the exact same gender, they'd be considered to be more feminine than before, even though most xenogenders aren't inherently masculine or feminine. not all nonbinary genders consist of a balance of masculinity and femininity.
when i came out, i didn't move towards the opposite of my AGAB by virtue of moving away from my AGAB. i am now equally far away from both.
the gender spectrum is not linear.

hey maveriques and allies!
the 31st may has been declared maverique visibility day a while ago as that was when maverique was first coined.
the 31st may 2024 is the 10-year anniversary of the coining of maverique.
i feel like this might be a great opportunity for us and our allies to do something to increase visibility of and awareness for maveriques.
i already have a vague plan for a maverique episode on my podcast and i will post something on my instagram as well.
if anyone else has ideas about what we can do as a community, hit me up!
it's time for us to finally move past only being featured as an obscure nonbinary identity, together. it's time for us to be known.

Nonbinary equivalents to boy/girl man/woman (help)
So far I've only found,
enby, enban, nonbin, for nonbinary,
mav, mave, uni, maver, maveri, mavan, for maverique.
xip and xenan for xenogender.
I don't know of any others, specifically I'm missing words for midbinary, abinary, atrinary, androgyne, agender, neutrois, aporagender and outherine.
Does anyone know anything?
Also, about androgyne, I know of boygirl and manwoman, however I'm not sure if they are exactly androgyne equivalents of boy/girl and man/woman. Any androgyne individuals who can share their opinion on this?

Pride paintings part 2/2
worked on these from mid Feb to early March. I enjoyed the process a lot but would be lying if I said I didn't start to feel sick of how repetitive the process of painting these canvases had become. As a result I made less gender pride magnets that originally planned, but I still made 10 so I still feel pretty accomplished :-)

I know a lot of people have question about the different between the different outherine genders/qualities, so I'm making this post to explain them as much as I can:
Aporinity
[PT: Aporinity]
A quality for genders defined as being separate from male, female, and anything in between, while still being a strong and specific gendered feeling.
It can be both a specific quality or an umbrella term for qualities that are comgender and abinary.
It is not:
Feminine, masculine, epicene, femmuline or androgynous
A lack of gender
Beyond the concept of gender
Aporagender can be:
Comgender neutral (and when it's purely neutral is not outherine)
Relative to neutrality and other non-outherine abinary qualities
relative or comparable to femininity, masculinity, etc
Born of the combination of a brand new quality and a neutrality or of one of those with one of the main qualities.
Some specifically aporine genders are:
aporagender
Aporaique
Aproxora
Maverinity
[PT: Maverinity]
A quality for genders, like maverique (from which is derived) characterised by:
Gender autonomy
A strong sense of gender
The lack of any kind of connection to pre-existent qualities
It's not:
Xenine
Beyond the concept of gender
The lack of gender
A combination of genders
Derived from pre-existent midbinary or abinary concepts
Some maverine genders are:
Maverique
Gendermaverick
Maveresque
Mavraen
Proxveri
Autonominity or gender autonomy
[PT: Autonominity or gender autonomy]
This quality refers to genders characterised by:
Independent.
Self-determination.
Being defined by oneself, without the imposition of outside structures and authorities.
The re-definition of pre-existent qualities, gender and roles through a personal, individual lens.
In this last point lies the difference between this quality and maverinity; while maverinity is only itherine, autonominity/gender autonomy can be umbine or preterine too.
This can also be used as an umbrella term for all the qualities charaterised by autonomy, including maverine genders.
Some autonomine genders are:
Autonomique
Egogenders (autonine)
Maverine genders
Alithix (As it's defined by personal authenticity)
Ilyaginity
[PT: ilyaginity]
It refers to genders, like ilyagender (from which is based) with:
A tangible presence of gender
Fully disconnected from pre-existent qualities/concepts
Some ilyagine genders are:
Ilyagender
Proxilya
Ilyaen
Autoninity
[PT: Autoninity]
It referse to qualities an genders characterised by being exclusive of an individual person (or system)-
These genders are collectively called egogenders and are characterised by:
Complete autonomy from pre-existent concepts
Individuality and personal autheticity
Relation to one's personhood or systemhood.
Self-determination
Perainity
[PT: perainity]
A quality for genders characterised by:
A complete disconnection to the fem/masc/neu trinary
The presence of gender
The lack of confusion or apathy regarding one's gender.
It's not:
Feminine, masculine, neutral or any combination between them.
Agender or quoigender.
Some peraine genders are:
Péra or Peragender
Peraique
Proxpera
Atraeninity
[Pt: Atraeninity]
This quality exist in relation to both masculinity and femininity, but rather than existing in between or as a combination of them, as it's the case of androgyny, epicenity, effemininity or femmulinity; it exists in opposition and confrontation to/with them, as if forming a triangle.
Here a quick graphic I made visually explaining the relation between femininity, masculinity, androgyny, epicenity and altraeninity:
Tumblr media
Altraeninity is characterised by:
Being midbinary.
Being described by a sense of "pure androgyny
A feeling that your gender "matches" femininity and masculinity or male and female, while not being derived in any way from them
A sense of gender
There are also qualities, like Ambiguity/ambiguinity, pandrogyny, ainulinity, aineminity, etc that can be considered ouherine or not. I'll put them in a different post.

Exobinary flag
Exobinary issues are mainly experienced by people with identities that are completely outside and/or independent of the gender binary or anything related to it.
( To clarify, this term is not meant to categorize identities or identity labels, it is meant to give a word for experiences. )
Flag colors are taken from the Neutrois, Agender, Stellarian, and Aporagender flags ( all identities which may be included under the Exobinary experiences umbrella depending on the individual. ) I made this as an alternative flag to use for a request because the existing flag gives me eyestrain. Free to use by anyone anywhere as always!
Taglist - @radiomogai, @revenant-coining, @epiceneandroid ( this is related to your rq which I'm currently working on! )

every single queer term relating to gender is turned into some binary bullshit and i'm tired. like why do you all hate people who don't fit the binary so much.
when transsexual was the term for trans men and trans women, transgender was coined mainly and mostly to describe people outside the binary.
then the aptobinaries decided they didn't like transsexual anymore and took over transgender. which, at this point, is almost as binary as transsexual used to be.
nonbinary people are constantly divided into transmascs and transfems, into amabs and afabs, into boy nonbinaries and girl nonbinaries.
genderqueerness suddenly needs to include aptobinaries despite it being an old term synonymous with nonbinary. genderqueerness suddenly needs to include aptobinaries in order to not alienate them, but instead alienate those the term was created by and for. despite "gender nonconforming" being right there.
just say you hate us and go. just say you want to centre the gender binary and aptobinary people in everything that was created by and for those of us outside of the binary. you all took over transgender, then nonbinary, then genderqueer, the last identity i have left and all because you think that "everyone is a little bit genderqueer" in the same way ableists say that "everyone is a little bit autistic", because you think "your gender doesn't need to be genderqueer to be genderqueer, you just need to dislike the gender binary", in the same way radfems say "you don't need to be attracted to women to be lesbian, it's enough to dislike men".
stop turning our identities into ideologies and stances. all of this was created by us out of marginalisation and taken over by those with aptobinary privilege over us.
genderqueer and gender nonconforming aren't the same thing. if you're always, fully and exclusively either male or female, this term was not made for you.
nothing has ever felt as much like home as a genderqueer identity and you all wanna centre the binary in it. stop.

i've seen many articles talking about trans men and trans women and just using their pronouns, but when they write a nonbinary person, they almost always seem to write "[name], who uses they/them pronouns".
this is exorsexism.
why are you talking about us differently than other trans people in a way that is unnecessary? what's keeping you from just saying their name, maybe that they're nonbinary if it's relevant, and just use their pronouns rather than announcing them? why are we yet again being singled out like that? it emphasises us yet again as "the other", even compared to binary trans people.

Actually, what do we think about the tesseract being like a symbol of outherinity? Like the tesseract is viewed as a cube through the 3d lense, outherinity is viewed as androgyny through the trinary lense. By looking through the right lense, we can seeing the tesseract for what it really is. Likewise, as outherine visibility grows, we will be seen as what we really are.
