#blobfish pride

BLOBFISH: a disabled woman who presents themself in a feminine manner/fashion yet feels disconnected from traditional femininity due to being disabled

AXOLOTL: a disabled man who presents themself in a masculine manner/fashion yet feels disconnected from traditional masculinity due to being disabled

NOTE: these terms were made specifically with autistic individuals in mind, but if you know anything about me, then you know that i’m not one for gatekeeping. if this term resonates with you, go right ahead and use it <3

ANGLERFISH: a disabled genderqueer person who presents themself in an androgynous or neutral manner/fashion, yet feels disconnected from typical androgyny or neutrality due to being disabled

NOTE: this was originally an attempt at a gender neutral version of my blobfish and axolotl terms, but eventually it turned into something more specific. if anyone wants to make a truly gender neutral equivalent, feel free to do so! just be sure to tag me in it so i can see it :)

wanted to ask, is there an in-between or neutral versions of your blobfish and axolotl terms? if not would you be open to making some/others making their own additions to it?

i’m glad my labels resonate! right now, there’s not but i would definitely be open to making one! i just need to think of another “ugly” sea animal lol

i actually am very much aware! that’s actually why the silhouette in the corner isn’t of the corpse, rather what the fish looks like in its natural habitat (the deep sea with lots of pressure)!

are you referring to the actual term “blobfish” itself? because if so, i totally get it and would be completely down with changing it! only problem is that idk if there are any short alternatives to it’s scientific name :/
