#multivalent

"This question of what is art is kind of this eternal question, right? And this is a work that definitely brings that up for a lot of viewers," Christie Mitchell, the senior curatorial assistant for the Whitney Museum, told Reuters. "The great thing about a work like this that is kind of so multi-valence is that it can reflect back what’s happening in our times and I think great works really do that."

Hi! So... I'm gender fluid. But trying to describe that has been hard. Then, I watched a youtube video talking about BMO from Adventure Time's gender fluidity, and the host of the show used the phrase "multivalent Gender" and it was like a little light bulb popped off in my head. (I'll reblog the video later.)

You can call me Tribble if you like. I'm a Femme presenting gender fluid person. I'll recognize she/her (based on my presentation) and they/them pronouns, as I find it too difficult to switch my pronouns according to my identity at the time. A friend of mind encouraged me to start a tumblr to talk about gender issues, as I don't feel safe talking about it attached to my real name. (Because I have certain disabilities that make me already vulnerable, it could be a bad idea to be out about my gender.)
