Geisthausia: A gender related to haunted houses, ghosts, and death.

From German Geist - ghost/spirit; Haus - house.

[neurogender]

Despite there being quite a few psychosis/schizophrenic spectrum neurogenders, there are none that are centred on all schizophrenic symptoms (most focus on psychotic/positive symptoms, except for negagender). So I’m coining one!

Zofrenie / Zofreniegender

A gender influenced by schizophrenic spectrum symptoms of both positive symptoms (such as hallucinations and delusions), negative symptoms (such as depression and alogia), and cognitive symptoms (such as confused thinking and memory issues).

The name comes from the Dutch word for schizophrenia, schizofrenie.

[ID: Two pride flags. They are identical except one has a gold stylised symbol of an eye in the centre. Each flag is made up of 6 rhombuses, each inside the other. From outside to inside, the colour of each rhombus is: black, dark grey, dark teal blue, light purple, light violet, and cream. End ID]

Malificae

A gender that is related to witchcraft. It is up for the user’s interpretation, but it may feel magical, ‘witchy’, have connections to spells, sigils, rituals and other types of magic, or feel related to a specific path. For example, a cottage witch might experience it as being homely, cosy and related to nature, while a sea witch may experience it as simultaneously harsh and gentle, vast, and liquid. These are only examples - malificae is a personalised gender that means something different for everyone. You do not have to practice witchcraft to be this gender. It does not have a suffix that can be replaced with a gender (e.g. it can’t be used as malificaexoy), but if paired with another gender, it may look like this: “I’m a xoy and malificae.” “They’re a malificae lykh, but they’re also juxera.” “Kit is a malificae girl.” However, it can be used as Malificaefluid and Malificaeflux, as well as Demimalificae, etc.

Istos-

An orientation/modifier for when, due to neurodiversity, a person feels platonic attraction felt to an intensity that mainstream society associates with romance, which causes severe confusion. The person may struggle to determine if their attraction is platonic, or if it’s actually romantic. They may feel like their attraction straddles the lines between romantic, queerplatonic, and alterous.

Can be used as a prefix for whichever attraction the person thinks fits best, e.g. istosplatonic, or as a standalone, e.g. “I am istos / I feel istos attraction”.

Istos comes from the Greek ἀγνώριστος (a)gnw/ristos), meaning ‘unascertained’ or ‘unknown’.

Similar to idore. See also quoi-, nebularomantic, idem-.

Mixedflux system

A system that fluctuates between median and multiple; a system where all or most headmates have a constant unsteady/fluid identity, and/or headmates constantly blur, fuse, etc and un blur, fuse, etc.

Agosium / Agosigender

A term for when you experience only a small aspect of a particular gender, as if the full gender is inaccessible to you (e.g., an agosigirl / agosium girl may feel they experience only a small part of being a girl; the rest of the gender experience of girl is unavailable to them). For fragments in multiple systems only (inclusive of all system types).

From Ancient Greek ἄγος (agos), meaning ‘fragment’. See also nano/nan0gender.

Niamour: A butch attracted to other butches [blb].

Niamour = niebieski [Polish for blue] - symbolic of queer masculinity.

Inamour = indigo - a queer colour, as well as pink and blue mixed together, while more on the blue side (representing the inamour person).
