#autonine

[qaivan]

Glasselfic ✦ A gender related to one's own glasses. This could be in general or it could be specific aspects (such as the aesthetic, the shape, the color, the history behind them, etc.) Due to the nature of this identity, it is considered autonine.

Autonine is a gender quality that is specific to an individual, but what if that concept was applied beyond gender quality?

Here's our answer:

Autodentity: a neoumbrella for any identities that are specific/unique to an individual; not (fully) relating to terms in the same category (orientation, gender qualities, etc.), instead defining one's identity as oneself

Autodentity may overlap with other identities, but doesn't have to.

lighthouse autonine: when one's gender is fluid but they always have a strong, unwavering connection to autoninity

lighthouse maverine: when one's gender is fluid but they always have a strong, unwavering connection to maverinity

[pt: lighthouse autonine: when one's gender is fluid but they always have a strong, unwavering connection to autoninity

lighthouse maverine: when one's gender is fluid but they always have a strong, unwavering connection to maverinity. end pt]

for anon! these use the lighthouse format and colors from the autonine and maverine flags.

here are some potential lighthouse experiences:

one has a [autonine/maverine] presentation

one always wants to be seen as [autonine/maverine] regardless of current gender

one is only fluid between genders firmly connected to [autoninity/maverinity]

[autoninity/maverinity] is the static core of one's identity

a presentation that blurs the lines between soporine (link), autonine, maverine, aporine, and eraenine (link)! this could be a mix of the five, not being able to tell the difference between them, etc.

To tell the truth, I originally thought these up with faenine (link) and maenine (link) in mind. I realized I was actually thinking of eraenine and viraenine when I was getting the links, haha

With those two gender qualities in mind, I wanted to intentionally subvert some expectations regarding femalehood and malehood. The sun often carries a masculine connotation while the moon carries a feminine one, so I switched those themes first. At the same time, I wanted something that is often compared to femalehood/malehood without actually being related to it in the slightest. For example, flowers being considered "girly" when they're literally just flowers, or alcohol being considered "manly."

To capture the autonine and maverine components, I wanted to have something a little bit untamable about both the labels. Wildflowers often self-seed entirely on their own, and they grow even without careful cultivation. Moonshine (at least in the historical sense that I understand it) was illegally distilled, unregulated, and crafted in the dead of night (to put it dramatically 😄).

I recently found out about soporinity, and I related to its dreamlike qualities more than I thought I would! For "sun-bleached wildflowers," I included it mostly by association, thinking of those dreamcore photos with endless flower fields. For "smoky moonshine," I mean. "Moon" is literally in the name, it's perfect!

Wish I could give a cool reason behind aporine but tbh that one's there because these are very self-indulgent terms and I wanted it to be there 🤷

Now for the flags themselves! For sun-bleached wildflowers, I included shades of orange for autonomy and maverinity, purple for eraenine, yellow for aporinity, and a blueish shade for soporinity. For smoky moonshine, my choices were admittedly less specific, as I just came up with a palette that reminded me of moonshine. But they turned out looking cool so I'm happy!

Round 1, Match 140 — Autonine vs. Crowgender

Which pride flag do you prefer?

Autonine

Crowgender

AUTONINE Definition: Autoninity is a term to describe gender qualities that are specific to an individual. It is to be used to describe gender (such as egogender), gender presentation, and other gendered attributes, such as actions. It is to explain the experience of not relating to other terms like masculine, feminine, neutral, etc, but simply being oneself. It is not exclusive and can overlap with other terms. For example, if someone considered themselves somewhat masculine and somewhat something else that is specific to themselves. Autonine shares similarities with terms like neutral, outherine, and xenine. Autonine differs from neutral, as even though both are separate from the masculine to feminine binary, neutral is an attribute that could be shared between multiple individuals, albeit differently. Autonine is more similar to outherine, as it is something separate from the gender trinary, but just like neutral, outherine could be a term shared by multiple individuals with similar experiences, albeit with minor differences. Autonine could be considered a subset of outherine. Autonine differs from xenine, as xenine can be described with or relating to external influences, and while autonine could overlap with this, autonine is purely internal.

CROWGENDER Definition: Crowgender is a xenogender and faunagender that is related to crows or feels crow-like. It also can represent a connection or love of crows, especially for neurodivergent individuals. The gender may feel dark, harsh, and intimidating. This may also be a kingender.

Could I request a word that describes being a combination or fluid between umbine, autonine and preterine?

Sentirine: A gender quality that is a combination or fluidity between umbine, autonine, and preterine. Noun: Sentirinity.

I really wanted a special word for this one because it was so many concepts rolled into one, so I went with the root word sentire, the Latin word meaning "to know" or "to perceive." Later on, it would become the basis for words like sense, coming from the Latin sensus meaning "perception, feeling, undertaking, meaning." I wanted to highlight the very unique and individualistic nature of such a term.

The colors simply felt right to me and make a nice gradient, starting from the bottom with purple and brown from my umbine flag and then moving into colors that felt like the fit with the palette.

I'm not sure if a quality term is helpful because those usually encompass several types of genders, so maybe someday there can be a gender version of this.
