You fuckers in the queer community would deny femphobia with your last breath, but constantly demand fem-aligned (FOC) people (esp. BIPOC) to perform emotional labor and coddle you. If we don't fit that purpose, you somehow treat us as less than. We are either hypersexual sex pests, or shallow bitches who has no in depth relation to queerness and genderdiversity, both are dehumanizing. We are predators for expressing our attraction in consensual scenarios, and we are bitches when we refuse to perform emotional labor for you.

Just this past month I have blocked many MOCs just for their hostility towards fem-aligned sapphics. The microaggressions, entitlement, misogyny never ends with you people. I am not, and will never say that masculinity is inherently harmful, or that you did these things because you're masculine, I'm saying you did this because you have prejudice against fem-aligned people. And one of these days you're gonna have to sit with each other and unpack that. I'm done doing it for you.

Hi! I am a genderqueer PhD candidate at the University of Tasmania. My research project looks at how, where, when trans and gender-diverse people feel at ease.

I am looking for members of the trans and gender-diverse community (encompassing anyone who does not identify as cisgender) to participate in a study surrounding trans and gender-diverse people's experiences of feeling comfortable, understood and respected.

I am conducting a survey and interviews to gain a better understanding of transgender, gender-diverse, and non-cisgender people’s experiences of gender, interpersonal relationships and values as well as what it means for them to live a good life.

The survey can be found through the QR code above. The survey link can also be found here:

https://utas.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_bfp0XtJ9WZTjTeu

The survey will take around 10 minutes to complete. After submitting the survey, you will be asked if you are willing to take part in an interview, and will be given a hyperlink that leads to my email address. In order to express interest in participating in an interview, you must email me directly. More information will be provided at the end of the survey.

Thank you for reading!

Gender study

Hey everyone!

I'm reaching out to the non-binary and trans community here on Tumblr. I've been wanting to write a book about gender for a while now, and I'm really interested in including a wide range of perspectives and experiences.

If you identify as non-binary or trans, I would love to hear your thoughts on gender.

Specifically, I'm interested in understanding:

- How do you define your own gender?

- What does gender mean to you personally?

- How have your experiences shaped your understanding of gender?

- Are there any specific challenges or triumphs you've encountered related to your gender identity?

Feel free to share your thoughts in any format that feels right to you, whether it's a written narrative, a diagram, a sketch or any other creative representation of your views.

Your insights and experiences are incredibly valuable and can help create a more inclusive and nuanced understanding of gender. You can share as much or as little as you're comfortable with.

If you'd prefer to share your thoughts privately, you can message me directly.Thank you so much for your time and willingness to share. Your voice matters and can make a big difference in this project.

With gratitude, [Claire/thisnotyouo]

Synarmogender

Synarmogender is a genderfluid identity and a subset, or micro-label, that falls under Mutogender. In Synarmogender, one's gender changes while in awareness of another person’s gender preferences. A person who identifies as Synarmogender experiences shifts in their own gender presentation or identity based on the attractions or preferences of others, which may occur either through direct interaction or simply by being aware of the other person’s existence.

Etymology

The term Synarmogender combines Greek roots with modern language constructs to capture the sense of a gender experience that aligns or adapts to others. Here’s a breakdown:

"Syn-": Derived from the Greek σύν (syn), meaning "together" or "with," this prefix implies connection or alignment.

"Armo-": Rooted in άρμοζω (armozō), which translates to "fit," "join," or "harmonize." This conveys the idea of a gender experience that adjusts or synchronizes with another person’s sense of gender or expectations.

"Gender": A term commonly added to denote aspects related to gender identity or experience.

Synarmogender thus describes a gender identity that shifts, molds, or aligns to "fit" or harmonize with the gender expressions or preferences of others, emphasizing connection and adaptability in one’s gender experience.

Characteristics

Synarmogender individuals may experience shifts in their gender identity based on the following examples:

Masculine Preference: When aware of someone who is attracted to masculine individuals, a Synarmogender person may feel or identify as more masculine.

Feminine Preference: When aware of someone who is attracted to feminine individuals, they may feel or identify as more feminine.

Multiple Preferences: If they become aware of someone attracted to multiple genders, the Synarmogender individual may feel aligned with one or more of those genders, reflecting the broad spectrum of attraction.

Group Awareness: When aware of multiple people who share an attraction to specific gender identities, a Synarmogender individual might align with a common gender identity that all share or with one or more identities to which the group is collectively and/or individually attracted.

Lack of Awareness: If unaware of the preferences of the individual or full group, they may feel like any gender or experience gender apathy (also known as apagender).

Partial Awareness: If only aware of some of a group's preferences, they may identify with the preferences of those individuals they are aware of or align with any gender or feel gender apathetic.

Specific Preferences with Specific Individuals: They may feel specific genders with specific people—such as being feminine with one person and preferring feminine terms with that individual—while feeling masculine with another. In a group context, they may identify with specific genders linked to specific individuals or feel or identify with one or more gender preferences if there is no common link between others in the group.

Additional Notes

Personal Preference Independence: The identity shifts within Synarmogender do not need to be influenced by the Synarmogender individual’s own sexual or romantic preferences, although they may sometimes align depending on the individual.

Synarmogender individuals may also identify as non-binary or transgender but do not have to.

The Synarmogender flag is an edit of the original Mutogender flag created by Fandom user pastelmemer or pride-flags-for-us.

Flags and Symbolic Meaning

The Synarmogender flag is an edit of the original Mutogender flag created by Fandom user pastelmemer or pride-flags-for-us, in which the colors were just a color edit of the genderfluid flag. The Mutogender flag was then rearranged to have all genders and lack of gender at the top and bottom of the flag instead of having masculine and feminine on top and bottom, as it felt most natural to its creator to have feminine and masculine sandwiched by the less common gender identities depicted to represent solidarity among all individuals under the genderfluid flag.

It was then color-shifted again from its original state of the Mutogender flag until its creator felt it was fitting and similar to the genderfluid flag; however, one color was switched out from a dull pink to a magenta for aesthetic reasons and also for a personal joke, changing it to the hex code “#b00b69.”

This resulted in the flag’s current state from top to bottom being white for all genders, blue for feminine identities, purple for masculine and feminine identities, magenta (#b00b69) for masculine, and black for null/lack of gender. The flag’s creator intentionally left feminine as blue and masculine as magenta (#b00b69) to challenge traditional gender roles and preconceptions. This also nods to the historical context of pink for boys and blue for women, highlighting how societal perceptions can change over time and emphasizing the ongoing fight for freedom and rights.
