Important: if you see anything that needs to be fixed and/or updated, please let me know! This blog serves as library for all (known) MOGAI genders, orientations and other. It (strives to) cointain(s) definitions, explanations, pride flags and pride scarves/buttons/other. Admin does not answer questions such as "can you help me with my orientation or gender, please", because I don't feel up to such responsible task. I can, however, recommend pride-flags-for-us - great mods, very helpful, very competent. This blog will be built slowly, but steadily. Admin is only a person with anxiety and can only do so much. If there's something you'd like me to add/change/remove, shoot me an ask! I'll do my best to resolve the problem. If there's anything that contradicts safe space status of this page, please call me out on it. I'll do my best to apologise, repair the damage and learn from my mistakes. Admin pronouns: they/them/their High quality flags provided by the wonderful Pride Flags on DeviantART!
Sure, absolutely!Since genderflux describes the intensity of any gender, and demigirl is “part girl, part other gender”, it’d just mean that the intensity of experiencing “girl”, “other” or demigirl altogether changes. Which is perfectly okay!
Hi friends! I’m collecting informal definitions of LGBTQ+ terminology to help curious gaybies and allies!
Pls help me out by picking a word and telling me what it means to you and/or where it came from. These words can be anything! WLW, sapphic, nb, fag – words you use, words you don’t use – just explain why.
The goal is to see what people define the most, and to get multiple definitions for some words, so don’t stress about which words are already defined.
ty for your help!! <3 and spread the word (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧
I did overestimate myself, my energy levels and workload - I can’t run this blog alone. Therefore I’m inviting you, the MOGAI community, to run this space with me. I mean, it’s only fair - I’m not the one who should decide whether something is worth putting up or not. And limiting this space to my availibity is exclusionary at best.
How can you help?
Click the submit button on the blog (or this link), get familliar with the submission guidelines and start submitting!
I can't do submissions, can I still help?
Yes, you can! If you browse through some posts, you'll notice that some have a "needs [a thing]" tag. This is what's missing from the post for various reasons - maybe I couldn't find it, or maybe it doesn't exist yet.
In any case - feel free to contribute! (note: I'm not sure how to do it technically that it makes sense and doesn't create chaos - I'll edit this post as soon as I come up with something)
Definition: the degree of one’s aromanticism fluctuates over a period of time.
Conditions: (none)
Explanation: Aroflux is similar to genderflux in that how aromantic you feel tends to flux in and out in intensity. Some days you may feel apathetic toward romance, then others you might feel entirely romance-repulsed, and some days you’re just like romance? Yeah. Cool.
Here’s another explanation with a hilarious and approachable swinging ship ride analogy.
Etymology: (eng) flux - the act of flowing; a continuous moving on or passing by, as of a flowing stream.
Pride flag:
Colour coding:
Green: aromanticism
Red: alloromanticism
The stripes transition from red to green to represent the varying degrees of one’s aromanticism.
Thanks so much! I (with the help of other awesome people) will do my best to keep updating this blog as accurately and comprehensively as possible. My mental health doesn’t allow me to do it as often as I would like to, but I’ll do my best.
In the meantime: if you would like to help, I’ve added tags to posts that are missing some stuff: banners, in-depth explanations and so on. Feel free to tag us when you post/reblog something that we don’t have or could use to improve existing content.
Thanks for sticking with us and have a fabulous day!

Hi, I've wanted to apologise for not updating the blog in a long time, I've been having a rather bad time lately for my mental health and since last week I don't have access to my laptop. I'll resume updating once I'm back and my anxiety lessens. Sorry again and take care.
