Are gynine/andrine interchangeable with experiencing womanhood/manhood?

I'm also curious if genderera/eraine and gendervir/virine would be interchangeable with experiencing womanhood and manhood.

Basically, do gynine, genderera, or eraine describe the same thing as womanhood? And do andrine, gendervir, or virine describe them same thing as manhood? Or perhaps none of them do. What do you think?

Gendervir is the larger umbrella for genders that are male, male-aligned, male-adjacent, and male-related, and genderera is the female counterpart. Their qualities are virine and eraine. Gendervir is like... man and also more, while genderera is woman but also more. I suppose the two could be interchangeable with manhood/womanhood if someone wants to use the labels in that way. It's like the negligible difference between maingender/feingender and man/woman.

Under these umbrellas would be man and woman, their qualities being andrine and gynine. Andrinity is interchangeable with manhood, and gyninity is interchangeable with womanhood.

I kind of wish andrine and gynine could be the quality for all things gendervir and genderera respectively, so they didn't feel so exclusive, and that I just could recoin it all. Maybe it can come down to preference of terms. People can do whatever feels comfortable.

Virine/eraine are not mine though. I saw the earliest mention of them on theoutherlings' blog, though I'm not sure if that's where they were also coined.

We use the term gendervir (link) and enjoy it quite a lot. Yet, we noticed that its quality, virine, and spectrums, viriaspec and virin, don't have flags. That's what we're here for!

The all-green flags were heavily inspired by neogender's gendervir flag (link). The blue flags were heavily inspired by this gendervir flag (link).

We have no idea who coined virine nor if viriaspec and virin(gender) existed before this post.

Virine is the gender quality for gendervir, which was coined to include all male alignments, genders, proximals, and qualities. Male is the adjective I'm using for man. Andrine might not always include alignments or proximals but that's just my way of fitting it into the gendervir system. Virine was not my term but it pretty much functions like andrine.

I coined gendervir when I was in a very different point in my life and then I never ended up using it as a concept. I sort of retired it and don't care much for it because it's not useful to any of my work. I also have a bad habit of trying to distance myself from my old blog.

It's fine if people use virine and andrine interchangeably. They're basically the same. Gendervir, maingender, and andingender are also pretty much the same too. It all depends on people's preferences.
