I’m not sure how this submission thing works- still new to tumblr but I have a submission for a a few orientations.
I’ve made the term Autistisexual and Autistiromantic for autistic people who are attracted sexually or romantically to other autistic people. This would be for the use of autistic people only but I thought it might be useful for some people. I’ve made quite a few flags, including autistiasexual and autistiaromantic.
You’re good! Thanks for the submission!

Repulsgnasci: pronounced: re-pull-ss-nasc-key
The condition of being strictly repulsed by pregnancy. Tokophobia is more specific to being FEARFUL of pregnancy, while repulsgnasci is specific to REPULSION of pregnancy.
If a person is repulsed by the IDEA of being pregnant (but don’t mind the others of others being pregnant), the term turns into autorepulsgnasci.
Repulsgnasci was formed by looking at the Latin words that made up “repulse” and “pregnant”.
Some followers might appreciate this!

Fastest reblog ever - I am definitely Autorepulsgnaci no doubt about it.
Dyke Pride Flag
Dyke: an identity adopted by some lesbian and sapphic people, who not only reclaim a slur but also use this identity to decolonize the orthodox culture, that imposed on them this repressive stigma.

I respect that the term can still be used as a slur, but as a linguist (in college) I appreciate the reclamation of taboo lexis by the less dominant in society. Including myself.
“””Alternative pronouns were only invented on Tumblr”””?
Gee, I had no idea Tumblr was around in 1858 when Charles Crozat Converse first thought up thon/thons/thonself… considering how much Tumblr has decayed over the years, I assume this site was fully functional back then
By the way Merriam-Webster even has an article about its existence, and it was included in their dictionary for around 30 years, dropped due to lack of use: https://www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/third-person-gender-neutral-pronoun-thon
Bringing this post back because it’s been getting notes again and I find histories of alternative pronouns really interesting
There was also hiser around the time of thon, which I forgot about while making the original post!!!!! Not sure how to conjugate hiser but it was coined :0
I can’t find singular articles about hiser BUT!!!! It’s included in larger ones if you google for “hiser pronoun”! Larger articles state even more archaic alternative pronouns but I’m mentioning hiser specifically because again, it was coined around the time of thon

passive aggressive reminder that more than two genders and transgender people have existed for millennia
reminder that colonialism forced native societies to revert back to their gender assigned at birth or be killed
reminder that there has been Mahu in Hawai’i until it was forcefully taken and colonized by white america
reminder that there were Hijra in South Asia until britain colonized it and forced every Hijra person into concentration camps the same time the german holocaust was happening
reminder that We’Wha was lhamana who served as an Ambassador to the Zuni people in 1886 to Grover Cleveland and was arrested for witch craft
reminder that in ancient Egypt there were people who were transgender and Egyptologists say that it was just people who were “buried wrong”
reminder that there are thousands of societies and cultures lost because of white colonization and we will never hear their stories
reminder that when this isnt taught in school it erases the history of people of color and queer people
Fun fact: a huge chunk of our notion of retro punk aesthetic is based on a specific technical limitation of one particular computer graphics card.
In a nutshell, back in the early 1980s, the first widely available graphics card to support colour display was the IBM Color Graphics Adapter, which would later lend its name to the CGA video standard. Though in theory it supported sixteen simultaneous colours, doing so at an acceptable resolution required complex coding tricks that wouldn’t necessarily work on all platforms. In practice, the most you could count on was four colors - and what’s more, it had to be four specific colours. You had your choice of black/green/red/yellow, black/blue/red/white, or black/cyan/magenta/white. The black slot could sometimes be swapped out for a limited range of other colours, but the other three slots were fixed.
All three palattes saw use for various purposes, but for gaming in particular, the green/red/yellow palette was generally regarded as too garish, and the blue/red/white as too flat, so the cyan/magenta/white palette won out by default - and that’s how we ended up with a generation of games that look like this:
Does that palette look familiar? It should - we slap it on basically everything that’s meant to evoke a retro 1980s aesthetic. But 80s fashion never actually looked like that: it’s literally just a technical limitation of one specific video card that’s become enshrined in our vision of the decade because a whole generation of video games was written for it.
-Demigenders are good -Fluid genders are good -Male-aligned genders are good -Female-aligned genders are good -Genders that are some sort of mix of male and female or somewhere between male and female are good -Genders that are a mix of male and female and other genders are good -Genders that are completely separate from male or female, and unrelated to them entirely, are good -Having multiple genders is good -Having no gender is good -Having a gender specific to your race, ethnicity or culture is good -Genders that no one else understands are good -Genders caused or affected by trauma are good -Not labeling or defining your gender is good -Not caring about what your gender is is good
The nonbinary community is so diverse and beautiful. All people of all genders are a wonderful addition to it! (Also- anyone with any of these genders who doesn’t use the term “nonbinary” is good and important to their community as well!!)
💙💙 don’t be a jerk 💙💙
Boys are allowed to be feminine and that includes trans boys, pass it on. Girls are allowed to be masculine and that includes trans girls, pass it on. Nonbinaries are allowed to use feminine or masculine expression, pass it on.
Hey, do me a solid and really pass this on. Please give this lots of notes, thanks.

hey! i'm nb and got tired of never seeing myself written in any stories, so i'm writing one myself! it features Casey, the nonbinary main character, and if anyone is interested, what I have so far an be found a few posts down on my blog- its called A Body In Motion
Nice!! Best of luck with your writing, go check out this awesome person’s blog everyone!!
Thanks for sharing, happy scribbling!

I looove seeing nbs in writing, esp when its in 3rd person so the author keeps using their pronouns. Its just very affirming to see... Im really interested in seeing something where maybe someone comes out to the narrator and asks them to use different pronouns, and i just wanna see the progress of them practicing using them more and maybe slipping up at first but eventually getting it... i havent seen anything like this yet but if someone else has pls share ugh maybe i have to write it myself
HEY SO I relate to this 3637292% and if you’re willing to PM me at @diamorics I’d love to write that scenario out for you!!!!

“this sexuality doesn’t exist because there’s no scientific studies about it”
Let me break down how silly you actually sound when you say something as ignorant as this.
Tldr? I explain just how tough it is to formally get approved to do legal, ethical research in the USA, human sexuality in general is a huge pain in the ass to get approved because of how taboo the subject is. I’ve also personally worked on research committees, so I have “insider knowledge”.
For starters, did gravity suddenly not exist before we had theories and studies that actually absorb the physics of gravity? No? See how dumb that is?
Now let’s break down the actual reason for why saying something as stupid “the sexuality doesn’t exist, because no sign studies have been done on it” I’ve worked on research committees that help research proposals get approved so they can be published and formally recognized by the scientific community.
If you are not aware, a scientist could not just say, “I want to do a research on (blank) topic.” They have to go through the formal process of getting research (often via grants), write a research proposal to show to said people who will give the money to help fund their project, and and then IF they are given funding (big IF, espicially if it’s coining new terminology or concepts), they can then formally submit their research proposal to the research ethics committee (NIH) to get approved, or disapproved for their project idea.
The way approval works, simply put, is that everyone on the committee must give a uniamous approval. However, everyone on the committee is an ANONYMOUS source, typically with some kind of level of experience in the subject of the research paper (physics, biology, excercise science, sociology, whatever the subject is), or heavy interest in the research project subject. If even ONE person gives a disapproval, then the person has to go back to the research brainstorming table, and resubmit a modified proposal. This process continues, until the person gets a unanimous approval. However, many people lose interest in pursuing this, because of how tedious it can quickly become (I’ve know some researchers that had to resubmit SIX TIMES the same research idea before getting approved).
Again, the committees are anonymous, and you are not aware of what the other committee members are doing with the project (give a approval to the idea or deny the idea). So if you give the proposal a “no/negative/no stamp of approval” (whatever you want to call it), and you’re the only person that denied them? They have to start the process of proposing all over again to a committee with a modified proposal. The research committees, are typically given a template that they must grade the research proposal on, as well as make sure that the persons spelling and grammar are top notch.
If after all is said and done, you get approved, congrats you can do your study. then, it’s a matter of what journals you can submit your research too, and potentially gain fame, or infamy, depending on your own individual background experience, as well as what journal you specifically submit to. Some journals, even in the scientific community, have not so good reputations for being “scientifically sound” or might be very biased towards a certain set of ideas.
Human sexuality in general, is a very tough subject to get approved within research committees, because of how taboo the subject matter is. a great colleague of mine, actually was the first researcher to Pioneer study on pubic hair, and that was published in freaking 2015. Why it took that long to get a formal study about pubic hair done, I shall never know.
So yeah, when it comes to coining new terminology or anything like that, on top of it being involved in the human sexuality research field? You have a VERY SMALL CHANCE of it actually being approved within a REASONABLE time frame (reasonable for most other research topics is 6-12 months from the time you send off your first research proposal idea to the committee to when you actually get approved).
This is a common “go to” argument people go to when saying “THIS DOESNT EXIST” within lgbt/mogai, so this post might help inform them on how difficult it is to go through the whole research progress (and good reading material in general for our followers, given what our blog here is about)

Who is ready to fight to defend asexuals?
💖💖 ^ THIS GUY ^ 💖💖
Exclusionist: “Inclusionists do not be ableist challenge!”
Also exclusionists: -have spent the last 6 months to a year telling me to go outside and mocking my various disabilities, saying the cogs of capitalism would crush me, claiming it’s just a joke when they are called out-
Also exclusionists: *makes fun of neurodivergent inclus./aspec people’s special interests, calling harmless cake jokes “cringe”, uses the “autistic screeching” jokes, neurotypical exclus. speaking over nd people on the term “aspec” and autistic acearo headcanons, using the r slur*
Also exclusionists: mock breakdowns and accuse people of faking their mental illnesses, purposefully trigger mentally ill inclusionists, suicide bait, etc.
all pedophiles should die and theres literally no downside to them all dropping dead
i want to personally give everyone who reblogged this a high five
