Dionysian Gender/Dionygender

Both an umbrella for anyone using the Dionysian gender system and a gender identity for someone whose gender is influenced by or tied to their worship of Dionysos.

Colors based on the sacred colors of Dionysos Black for nonconformity/chaos Shades of green for life, nature, viticulture, and masculinity White for community and trans, nonbinary and intersex people Shades of red-pink for power and femininity Purple for blurred lines, wine, and androgyny

Maedic/Maegender

Named after the Maenads, the female members of the Cult of Dionysos also known as the Bacchae. Refers to a feminine, female, neutral, or female-associated gender of experience. Specifically, women, all genders of lesbians and sapphics, AFAB non-women who feel their relation to femininity impacts their gender/experience, feminine non-binary people, and anyone of any gender with a tie to femininity. This gender is also associated with power, freedom, chaos, and appreciation of women (romantically, aesthetically, sexually, conceptually, etc.).

Red for power, wine, and blood Shades of red-pink for power and the spectrum of femininity White for community and trans, nonbinary, and intersex people Orange-gold for leopard skins and wild nature Brown for wild nature, forests, and the thyrsos staff Black for nonconformity and chaos

Thyrsoan/Thyrsogender

Named after the thyrsos, a staff associated with Dionysos and his cult. Refers to a neutral, mixed, fluid, or otherwise androgynous or agender experience. Specifically, anyone who falls outside the gender binary, is non-cis but feels their relation to their AGAB affects their gender, or who bends gender roles and presentation. This gender is also associated with revelry, devotion, power, and love (of any kind towards anything).

Olive green for forests Shades of green for life, viticulture, and the spectrum of masculinity White for community and trans, nonbinary, and intersex people Brown for wild nature, mixing of gender and presentations, nonconformity, and the thrysos staff Shades of red for power, wine, and the spectrum of femininity

Satyrian/Satyrigender

Named after the Satyrs, the half-faun male member of the Cult of Dionysos. Refers to a masculine, male, neutral, or male-associated gender of experience. Specifically, men, all genders of achilleans, AMAB non-men who feel their relation to masculinity impacts their gender/experience, masculine non-binary people, and anyone of any gender with a tie to masculinity. This gender is also associated with freedom, revelry, impulsivity, community, and wildness.

Dark brown for forests, wood, and hooves Brown for wild nature, fur, deer, stags, and nonconformity Golden-brown for sun and strength White for community and trans, nonbinary, and intersex people Shades of green for life and the spectrum of masculinity Olive green for forests and fertility
