#femproche

pride icons for me and my wife!

electra | femproche (flag colors are coat), pansexual (accessories), transfeminine (background)

1) Homproche "om–PROESH"

Meaning “Near or Approaching Male,” From French homme ‘man’ and proche ‘near.’ A gender expression that is Masculine, despite a gender identity that is not. An identity where one’s gender expression is an integral part of one’s queer experience. Can also be used, in some cases, as a synonym for Proxvir: A gender that is close to or resembles Male but is separate from it. This gender is not inherently Male-Aligned / Solarian, an Homproche can have any alignment.

Flag Design: Five Vertical Stripes; In order from left to right: Violet - Blue Purple - Blue - Light Blue - White

Violet: Gender Neutrality

Shades of Blue: Masculinity

White: The Experience of All Genders

2) Femproche “fem-PROESH”

Meaning “Near or Approaching Female,” From French femme ‘woman’ and proche ‘near.’ A gender expression that is Feminine, despite a gender identity that is not. An identity where one’s gender expression is an integral part of one’s queer experience. Can also be used, in some cases, as a synonym for Juxera: A gender that is close to or resembles Female but is separate from it. This gender is not inherently Female-Aligned / Lunarian, a Femproche can have any alignment.

Flag Design: Five Vertical Stripes; In order from left to right: Violet - Pink Purple - Pink - Light Pink - White

Violet: Gender Neutrality

Shades of Pink: Femininity

White: The Experience of All Genders

Cis people are allowed to use these terms so long as they use the one “opposite” to them: cis women can use Homproche and cis men can use Femproche.

Trans people can use whichever (or both! or one at a time!).

I primarily intend for them to be used as a non-appropriative alternative to butch and femme.

3) Omnique “om-NEEK”

Made up of the terms Omnigay: A gender identity that changes to match the gender of whoever one is attracted to or in a relationship with, so that one’s orientation can always be defined as gay; and Queer: The blurring of one’s gender and orientation. Primarily a synonym for Omnigay.

Seven Horizontal Stripes; In order from top to bottom:

Yellow - Peach (Pink-Yellow) - Pink - Purple - Blue - Teal (Blue-Green) - Green Meant to resemble the Genderfluid and Omni- flags as well as the rainbow of the gay pride flag (and also to include “third genders” such as maverique).

I coined this term because I identify as omnigay and I wanted a noun version, like other genders, and “I’m an omnigay” didn’t sound right. I originally was just going to redesign the omnigay flag you already have because, no offense, I can’t stand it. 

PLEASE make it explicit that the new flag can be used by people who identify as omnigay! It’s not exclusive to omniques!

Ok, I think I’m done. I hope I’m not asking too much. Thank you.
