CONTRARIANGENDER

A sweet and almost delicate person who experiences their gender as being isolated and (gender) disobedient.

They feel different from most people around them, and cannot conform to society's exisiting gender norms. They rebel against it in a passive and caring way - not wanting to take up any more space than needed.

Their gender is completely autonomous - people with this gender have their own will. They feel anarchy against the "cistem" & gender binary and they wish things would be different - but they would only want to protest in a peaceful, harmless way.

These people think and behave differently than most people around them, and often have hidden talents or qualities that makes them stand out.

They have a strong will and seem to be very open-minded.

They are often misunderstood by others, leading to isolation, being bullied and even sometimes being outcast.

Key elements:

•Isolated

•Anarchistic

•Contrarian

•Autonomous

This is an autonomique othergender, autonomous in nature.

This gender is different from male, female, in between those or agender. It's a specific gender under the aporagender umbrella, and a gender identity on its own at the same time.

This is not necessarily a xenogender or maverique-aligned, but one who identifies as such might feel this way and claim this label, which is totally valid!

It might also be considered a traumagender.

This was my idea for it. Yellow, orange, and brown make me think of gender autonomy, personally. It seems that there isn't really a specific format for autonomous gender flags, so I came up with this to fit my own aesthetic preferences. I borrowed colors from some genderless (not agender) flags I found.

[pt: Infinique /end pt]

[id: a rectangular flag with 8 equally-sized horizontal lines. colors in this order from top to bottom: dark grey, dark blue, blue, green, pale yellow, light pink, pink, dark grey. /end id]

Infinique: a term for an infinitudinal autonomique (a purely autonomous gender defined by self-governance, a sense of personal freedom in one’s identity and independence from gendered concepts without being genderless, xenic, or maverique) gender, autonomous infinigender (a descriptor of an infinite, or infinitive, or associated with gender infinity, not limited by tense, person, or number), and/or infinitrois (a leptrality of infinitive equity) auingender (an umbrella term for all genders that are autonomous in nature (AUIN)).

Etymology: infin(itudinal), (autonom)ique

Previous ask from user pirategracey:

I was browsing your Tumblr since you liked my post and you coined intragender, a gender modality I use. That's so cool /gen

Hey there! I'm so happy you found one of my terms to be helpful for you.

To paraphrase my original definition of autonomous gender, it refers to a gender experience that is 1) self-determined, 2) independent from outside governance as well as 3) a sense of freedom regarding one's actions, wills or desires.

In other words, this means that autonomous genders are fully defined by oneself, without the imposition of outside structures and authorities (systemic or interpersonal). This can be expressed in numerous ways, such as a Maverique, Autonomique or Egogender identity.

Gender autonomy can also extend to those who have individualistically redefined preexisting, heteronomic roles, identities and/or presentations. To rephrase, non-autonomous gender experiences can be reconceptualized through one's selfhood and/or liberation of the self.

Autonomy as a nature of gender can be kinda confusing. If you need clarification or have any other questions, please don't hesitate to send me another ask! :-)

I made my own version of the autonomique flag for fun. It has an offset white stripe similar to my maverique redesign. The rest of the colors represent autonomy in general, their colors not typically representative of gendered categories and alignments.
