My Gender Labels
Captions are below the flags! Clicking the icons will bring you to a separate website that explains the terms in detail. These are not all of the labels I use, but they're the most common ones. Do they seem complicated and perhaps contradictory? Consider watcing my YouTube channel to find out how and why I use these labels.
▲ Trans: A gender that does not line up with one's assigned gender at birth. I am a transgender man, though I'm considering calling myself transsexual.
▲ Transmaverine: A trans experience aligned with maverinity, a quality that is not masculine, feminine, and neutral but is still strongly gendered and autonomous. My trans experience feels maverine in nature, not tied to any other existing gender qual
▲ Multigender: Having more than one gender or a gender made up of different parts. Being bigender and demigender makes me multigender.
▲ Bigender: Having two distinct genders. I am both male and asteresque (an aporagender.)
▲ Nonbinary: Any gender that is not entirely male or female. I am a nonbinary man, my bigender identity makes me nonbinary, and asteresque is a nonbinary gender.
▲ Asteresque: An unaligned neutral gender that is similar to neutrois but is not genderless nor ambiguous.
▲ Aporagender: A gender unrelated to the binary or anything in between but with a strong gendered feeling. My astereseque identity is an aporagender.
▲ Abinary: Genders that are not at all related to the binary of male and female. One of my genders - asteresque - is abinary.
▲ Stellarian: A description for nonbinary people who are unaligned or who reject alignment. I reject alignment. A stellarian person is also called a Stellar Nonbinary Person.
Note: The trans and aporagender flags used here were created by Tumblr user ryanyflags. The multigender flag is by isobug.
Term and Pronoun Boundaries
I do not use terms like AFAB, AMAB, TME, or TMA for myself and prefer not to be asked where I fall under these categories.
I am not transmasculine even though I'm a transgender man. I am transmaverine.
I do not have a gender alignment because I reject the concept of alignment.
My sex is nonbinary. I am not altersex. My sex is not male or female, and it is not both.
I prefer male-related terminology such as man, guy, sir, etc. Please do not degender me by using neutral language.
I don't care for the term "enby" for myself, but I do like enban if you're going to use a nonbinary referential term.
I prefer ey/em/eirs pronouns in online spaces, and he/him/his pronouns in person. I also enjoy e/em/eirs pronouns or any spelling variation of ey/em.
Preferred Names
Stormy (highest priority), Aster, Atlas, Alex (low priority)
