Ok so I've been digging and I haven't found a gender identity that exactly describes how I feel, so I decided to coin one. I'm not super familiar with the culture of MOGAI so if I commit a major faux pas just let me know and I'll try my best to fix it.
Adjagender is a descriptive umbrella term to describe the feeling of being adjacent to a gender in a way that is neither wholly binary nor non-binary.
[More flags/descriptions under the break. Image IDs in alt text]
While this term may overlap with demigender, paragender, perigender, offgender, sortagender, and similar terms for some, adjagender describes the grey area in between identifying entirely as a binary or nonbinary version of that gender.
The following terms are examples of how this can be used:
adjabinary- being neither wholly binary nor nonbinary
[the general adjagender flag at the top of the post can be used as an adjabinary flag too!]
adjaboy/adjaman- having a miaspec gender that is neither wholly binary nor nonbinary
[left: adjaboy flag. right: adjaman flag]
adjagirl/adjawoman- having a fiaspec gender that is neither wholly binary nor nonbinary
[left: adjagirl flag. right: adjawoman flag]
The colors of the main part of the flag represent the wide range of genders that can feel binary-adjacent, the black bar represents a feeling of separation, and the rightmost bar represents a binary gender.
You can append the adja- prefix to any gender identity to show that your identity is adjacent to the binary understanding of that gender. You can also add the black stripe/color stripe to any flag to denote that it's an adjagender (assuming there isn't anything important over there).
As an example, here's what an adjacatboygender flag would look like:
[flag source here.]
The color of the stripe on the right can be anything that you think represents the most binary version of that gender.
(Sorry, but I can't help you figure out if you're adjagender. If you vibe with the term, use it. I'm also not accepting requests to make adjagender versions of preexisting flags. If you want to make your own, the rightmost stripe should be the same width as the main stripes and the black stripe should be half that width. In flags with vertical stripes, feel free to make the two added stripes horizontal)
Alright thanks for reading, I hope this is helpful for somebody out there :)
-DNI-
TERFs/gender critical DNI: I am a grown adult reflecting on my own gender. I'm thinking critically about my own identity.
Anti-MOGAI/anti-neos/anti-xenos DNI: See above.
"Men DNI"/"mspec gays DNI" DNI: I'm a dude. I'm in a gay relationship, and I'm usually attracted to other dudes. Even though I can be attracted to any gender, gay is a pretty good descriptive term for me (in my book at least).
Otherwise, go ham :) You're allowed to make color edits or different versions of the flag (as long as they're not mean towards a group of people). Just don't sell it as merch or anything without asking me first :)

I didn't see any existing flags for them anywhere. Are you able to link me to the flags?
I can redesign them for sure but I didn't want to label my saved files as redesigns if I'm making entirely new flags (for portfolio organization I guess. There are like 1000+ flags in there and I try to keep the file names consistent.)
