nyxivull !

a non-xenic term umbrella connected to nothingness, void, emptiness, black holes, and never-ending vastness. this term may feel empty, null, nonexistent, or emotionless. it is connected to the colors black, purple, ultraviolet, and white. however, one doesn't need to feel a connection to all of these things to use this term.

it is similar to kenochoric, and can be considered under that umbrella or not, depending on the user. it can be used as a descriptor for one's gender, orientation, or any other label category, or separately. pronounced nix + ee + vull.

nyxin ; nyxivull-in-nature. pronounced nix + in.

nyxiv ; a term for a nyxivull gender. possible suffixes for nyxivs could be -nyx, -vull, or -xiv. pronounced nix + iv.

Obscurique

A gender that may feel strong, stable, and prominent when left unlabeled, but becomes distorted, unstable, non-existent, and/or changing when attempting to label or define it. It is a partially or fully obscurian gender; when left alone, the gender may still be obscurian in some ways, but it doesn’t have to be.

Symbol is a variant of the obscurian symbol, and can be found below the cut.

[Image ID: a rectangular flag with six horizontal stripes in the following order, from top to bottom: tuna blue, dusk blue, cadet gray, opal, sea mist, and near-white tealish green. In the centre of the flag is a closed eye in the middle of a circle. /end ID]

Obscurianal Attraction.

plain text: Obscurianal Attraction.

— An attraction that is unable to be named, quantified, explained, understood, and/or determined. ; An attraction that can only be viewed through an obscurian lens. Not inherently underneath under any other attraction umbrellas.

Can be considered similar to queeritic attraction and nebulous attraction.

— An obscurianal relationship can be called a oscuriship, and the obscurianal equivalent to crush would be an osci. The suffix -scurianal can be combined to specify types of attraction (like homoscurianal, heteroscurianal, ect.)

Obscurian Masterpost

[Sidenote: This is not the coining post, but it will go into more detail than the original since it's newer. See the original here.]

Obscurian is an umbrella term for genders (and sometimes other identities) that are unable to be named, quantified, understood, explained, comprehended, and/or determined. More broadly, it may define a vague, unknowable, or unexplainable experience, among other things. Obscurian experiences might just be ones that are unable to be named, quantified, etc., but it can also include things connected to more metaphorical concepts that cause obscurity, like fog or darkness.

Obscurian is not the same as questioning. It may be used as an umbrella for other labels, or as a stand-alone identity of its own.

It is an umbrella term, and as such can describe a very wide variety of experiences and terms. It isn't a xenogender, but it does fall under kenochoric.

The flag

The flag was never originally discussed or described, but some history will be explained here, as the original coiner.

The original flag (with 5 stripes) was meant to represent things that could distort one's vision or understanding of something, which is why it used dark and "creepy" colors. I also used purple since it's kenochoric. The new flag had been designed since some people didn't like the old one or thought it was unoriginal, so this has a different meaning.

The new flag was made with the idea of the black representing no knowledge, to the light yellow representing near infinite knowledge. This is because both extremes will cause someone to be unable to understand, quantify, name, explain, etc. what's happening in front of them. I preferred it since it seemed more inclusive of different ways something might become incomprehensible or unexplained.

Sublabels

Obscurian has a few coined subterms. Some are new to this post. Ones that aren't will be linked on their titles.

Basics:

OBSIN: Obscurian-in-nature. Anything that's obscurian-y.

Obsic: Being aligned to obscurian. Similar to xenic and kenic.

Obscurine or Obscine: Obscurian quality, like feminine or masculine.

Obscure attraction: Attraction that is in some way obscurian. Also called obscurianal attraction, which has been coined.

Haze: An obscurian person; similar to "boy" and "girl."

Leer: An obscurian person; similar to "man" and "woman."

(Note: While haze is more associated with boy/girl and leer to man/woman, you don't need to be an adult/minor to use whichever you prefer.)

Subterms:

Obsernic: An obscurian aldernic subterm.

Obscurique: A gender that may feel strong, stable, and prominent when left unlabeled, but becomes distorted, unstable, non-existent, and/or changing when attempting to label or define it

Inscurian: When someone is obscurian because they're intersex.

Antanaver: A gender that represents the desire to be acknowledged, but cannot be, or does not want to be, perceived. It only shows as a mirror of the truth, rather than true reality.

Gendercipher: A gender related to ciphers, cryptology, and/or secret codes. Only sometimes counts as obscurian.

Valeogender: A gender that grows and develops over time, rather than changing. Considered obscurian since you don't really know where it's going to go next.

Gay flag

This is a flag for anyone who considers themselves gay, regardless of their gender. It is not a general LGBTQ+, queer, etc. flag, it is a gay flag. Gay men, lesbians, nonbinary gay people, and any other gay person is completely welcome to use this.

This was both made to have a non-gendered gay flag, and as a flag of solidarity and unity among gay people in general. I do not care who uses this flag, so long as they consider themselves to be gay.

The flag and stripes:

I made two versions; one is meant to look similarly to the most popular flags made for lesbians and gay men so it fits the "theme," while the other one is styled originally without the tie to those flags. This is so that people who like the look of the sunset and wintergreen flags, and people who do not, can have their own style.

The name of this flag is Honeydew Gay, referencing the light green center or bottom. It can also just be called Intersectional Gay, if you'd rather.

Orange is for personal identity and lived experienced. It's for recognizing that every gay person is different, and so are their lives. There is rich diversity among gay people throughout history, and in the modern day.

Red is for gay rights, acceptance, and history. It's for the fight for gay rights and acceptance, and respect for those who have been fighting throughout history. It's for pushing for gay rights today, in our laws and our society.

Pink-purple is for gay solidarity, gay "family," and gay unity. It's for uplifting other gay people and recognizing each other as a unified force that has worked together and helped one another. It's also a nod to how "family" has been used as code for fellow community members in the LGBTQ+ community.

Light green is for gay intersectionality. It's for recognizing that there are other minorities within the gay community: gay women, gay disabled people, gay people of color, trans gay people, intersex gay people, and so on. It's about rooting out these issues from our community to create internal and external equality and support.

Blue-purple is for gay remembrance and mourning. It's for remembering those we have lost, throughout history as well as recently. It is for honoring their legacy and carrying forward in their names.

Blue is for gay pride and gay love. It's for pride in oneself, self-love, and the love gay people have for each other, whether as community members or as people in different types of relationships.

!!  PERSODIVERGENT  !!

╰┈➤ persodivergent, also known as interdivergent, is an all-encompassing term for those with personality disorders, including those with PDNOS, and those with traits of a PD, but no conclusive label. both terms are interchangeable, and mean the same thing.

╰┈➤ these terms were made because i couldn’t find any that weren’t either clunky (’people with personality disorders or personality disorder traits’), or couldn’t be said aloud (’pwpds’). so i made one!

╰┈➤ the symbol for this is ≠, because those who are interdiverse are not equivalent to the ‘typical’ personality. 

╰┈➤ persodivergent comes from ‘personality divergent’, while interdivergent comes from ‘internally divergent’. the opposite of persodivergent would be persotypical, and the opposite of interdivergent would be intertypical. 

╰┈➤ image description, color meanings for the persodivergent flag are under the cut, as well as tags for reach.

ID START ; a flag with 7 stripes colored: dark magenta, magenta, pink, dark grey, lighter pink, grey, light grey. in the center is a dark grey symbol with a square as its base shape, and in the middle is a vertical line that stops at the dark magenta and light grey lines. in the center is a black symbol of a virus. ; ID END



BLIGHTLEXIC !

a lexic gender related to the word blight.

blight + lex + ic

from “blight” and the suffix “lexic”

requested by @inknth, coined by us

[ID: A set of four flags. The ones on the top have 5 stripes and the ones on the bottom have 6. They go from very dark pink, to dark purple, to lighter blue, to very light green, to very light yellow, and the bottom ones then have an additional orange stripe at the end. The flags on the right have the treblesand symbol, which mixes the treble musical symbol and the ampersand symbol. End ID]

Plural Flag touch-up

This plural flag is a pretty popular one now, and I wanted to touch it up a bit. The ones on the top are just color corrected to be a little brighter and more saturated, as opposed to the old one that's more grey.

[ID: A set of four flags with 8 stripes, going from mid purple, to dark blue, to mid teal, to lighter green, to very light orange, to mid red, to darker pink, to dark grey. The flags on the top have a circle symbol with a plus sign inside it, and two diagonal lines coming out of it. The top and bottom right flags are more saturated and bright than the ones on the left side. End ID]

-

Multigender flag

I wanted to make my own multigender flag!!! The symbol was also made by me, and I tried to model it to look similar to other gender symbols. The plus sign is meant to represent having multiple genders, and the two diagonal lines are based off of the epicene symbol and subsequent genderfluid symbols, to represent people in those groups as well.

I kept in the blues and orange from the original flag to pay respects to it, as well as added in a variety of other colors to showcase the spectrum of gender identity. I didn't base every stripe off of individual umbrellas, since it would be inevitable that doing so would leave some groups out.

This is a flag for anyone who has multiple genders, at any point in time. Whether bigender, genderfluid, pangender, or any other identity that encompasses multiple genders in some sense.

Here's the symbol (it's black, so on some themes you might not be able to see it):

plaint text: Non-Inherently Xenogender Gender Umbrellas

Reblogs of this post won't always be up to date, but this notion link will be (link).

Last Updated: November 12th 2022. Total Terms Listed: 29

Formatted as: Name + link to coining post: basic definition (basic as in might not include every concept/experience)

Aetherine (link): a non-xenine umbrella term that encompasses all things related to the otherworldly/ethereal. It is usually centered around the idea of otherworldly ideas/concepts/things and/or connection to concepts/ideas/things from other planets, whether fictional or real, but not always.

Altumen (link): an umbrella term for terms (genders, identity, orientation, alterhuman, etc.) connected to the deep sea, deep sea creatures, speculative biology, merfolk, merfolk culture, and nonhumanity/alterhumanity.

Ambedoric (link): a umbrella term that is centered and based on the concept of ambedo (link leads to definition). It is a very broad umbrella term that can include xenogenders, aesthetigenders, neurogenders, etc. underneath it. It can, however, be simply used as a xenogender, but does not definitively have to be.

Cuteseyic (link): A non-xenine neogender umbrella related to cute(sy) things.

Dimensen (link): an umbrella term connected to alternate dimensions, multiverse theory, subdimensions, pocket dimensions, fate, soulmates, and the like.

Esperkyn (link): a (primarily) gender umbrella, similar to (but distinct from) the xenogender umbrella. It is for identities based on feelings of hope, a better tomorrow than today, victory through adversity, and many other similar concepts. While I did coin the term as a way of describing gender, other types of good-faith identities may also qualify as Esperic.

Everithe (link): a NON-XENIC neogender umbrella related to lightness, dawn, infinity, everlasting, gold, and existence. this can be metaphorical, literal, or something in-between.

Fantasium (link): a gender umbrella related to fantasy, nobility, mythical creatures, nature, non-humanity, divinity, ethereal things and such. it may be related to the concepts tied to these, their aesthetics, their meaning, anything.

Feruvel (link): An identity centered around things connected to beastliness, animals, ferality, nonhumanity, etc. It encompasses things like predator / prey dynamics, primal instincts, wild animals, feral monsters and anything that someone might consider a part of beastliness and pure nonhumanity. This label is not exclusive to alterhumans, though one might feel this identity in a different way due to ones alterhumanity.

Furrean/Furriean (link): A semi-xenine neogender umbrella related to furries, furriness, being a furry, fursuits, furry characters, furry art, and other aspects of the furrydom!

Inbissiec (link): an umbrella term centered on the idea of being bizarre. It is an umbrella term circling all labels that center around being odd.

Kasvionan (link): a gender identity/umbrella centered around plants (inclusive of any kind of plant), and possibly also sunlight, growth, beauty, and/or strength. This is a non xenic identity/umbrella, simular to kenochroic, luxine, or macashric. (do not tag as xenogender).

Kenochoric (link): an umbrella term for identities centered around things like liminal spaces, loneliness/emptiness, nostalgia, the uncanny, distortion, obscurity, disconnect, nonhumanity, and many other related things. It can be an identity of its own, but it also describes any identity with characteristics that fit its "vibe."

Kerlinux (link): a neogender umbrella for genders related to the linux operating system, free and open source software, computers, and so on. it's a broader version of linuxgender, which is under this umbrella. this may also be used as an individual gender.

Kocirine (link): a non-xenic neogender gender umbrella for genders similar to scene, neon, and/or high-contrast aesthetics. it may feel chaotic, cluttered, bright, high contrast, clashing, hyper, or "cringe", but it doesn't have to be. it could describe one's gender being related to scene and neon aesthetics, just having a lot of clashing and contrasting genders, some combination of those things, or something different.

Liminic (link): A non-xenine umbrella term for any identity related to liminality. This doesn't just have to include liminality as in liminal aesthetics, but can also be an identity that feels "transitional", in a sense. This is typically used as a descriptor for gender, but can be used as any identity, such as an allion, perspeque, personalius, xeniden, or a chornosian term. (doesn't just have to be limited to those though)

Lumenoir (link): centring around golden light and positivity, Lumenoir is an umbrella term that includes identities that relate to sunshine, kindness, compassion, glitter, gold, brilliance, and all that shines. It is strongly positive and perhaps may be glowing or luminous. Some experiences that fall under this label could relate to sun showers, the light of dawn, acts of kindness, or angelic halos! Experiences that fall under this label may include concepts not listed above and may differ from what I have stated in this post! It mostly is about how the term feels and what vibes it gives off rather than a literal checklist of what to include and what not to include!

Luxine (link) is an umbrella term centered around the ideas of divinity, light, holiness, and vastness.

Macarshric (link): a neogender that is NOT xenic or xenine. It is the sum of macabre and horror themes which generally means the distress or disturbed feelings that can arise from death and/or violence. Macarshric is its own gender, but it can also be an umbrella if the user chooses.

--- (<- getting around tumblrs character block limit)

Mortelum (link): a term for someone whose identity relates to a variety of concepts centring around death, the passage of time, and the intersection between those two concepts.

Soporine (link): an umbrella term for genders based on sleepiness (or lack thereof), dreams, drowsyness,etc.

Spiritine (link): an identity directly connected to/representing one’s spirituality or religious beliefs. this could have a few different meanings, including not being able to separate one’s spiritual and queer identity, feeling that one’s queer identity is spiritual, or being xenine + identifying with spirituality-themed xenic identities such as religiogenders.

Twistue (link): an umbrella term ( like kenochoric and luxine ) for identities related to, connected to, or are “ cute with a twist “. that twist is often dark, creepy, or unsettling. some examples of this are pastel clothing with eyes or teeth, candy gore, and yami kawai. this is not a xenogender, but genders under this could be described as xenogenders.

Valmia (link): a term for genders that are bloody, painful, realistic, cartoony gore, pain, and/or weirdcore gore and similar.

Wilderic (link): an umbrella term, connected to forests, plants, wilderness, wonder, the natural world, ecology and nature.

[ID: Two symbols, showing a center ring with 8 looping arms coming out of it, and another circle wrapping around it at the end. The one in the left is white and the one in the right is black. End ID]

Soooo I made a new version of the plural spiral

The ring around it makes it look like the plural spiral is part of the disability sun, and I thought it'd be really cool since it contains the original spiral that any plural person can be represented with, and with the disability sun added it also represents those who view it as a neurodivergency or disability
