Comparing Metanine Qualities
All of these terms are from the Category 1 outherinities: Entirely new, apart from masculine, feminine, androgynous, and neutral, yet not exactly xenine (also known as metanine qualities.) This document is meant to go more into detail on the differences between these terms and whatever additional information might be needed. This is supplemental, expanded information for this post outlining specific outherinities by category.
Itherine: All qualities that can be described as “other.” They exist separate from ordinous gender concepts (masc, male, fem, female, androgyne, androgynous, neutrois, neutral), being in no way comparable to them or related to them (So, they are never proximals, centrinities, intermediaries, comparatives, or combinatory identities.)Examples of itherine qualities:
Aliusine (from aliagender): A quality that is “other” and is outside of existing gender constructs.
Péraine (from péragender): A quality that is not masculine, feminine, or neutral while also not being genderless, confused, or apathetic about one’s gender.
Állosine: A quality that is otherworldly or “out there.”
Some maverinities and ilyaginities, which aren't always outherine due to their autonomous quality.
Some “unlabels” like other or anonbinarine.
Ipsine: All qualities that can be described as “unique to the person.” These qualities are defined around one’s personhood or an aspect of one’s identity. Some are considered exclusive because they are tied to an aspect of identity that only certain people experience rather than being open to everyone (Arguably, these could all be exclusive since autonine is exclusive to an individual.)Examples of ipsine qualities:
Autonine: A quality relating to the person's own self (not to be confused with autonomous or autonomine.)
Specific exclusive ipsinities:
- Alterine: A quality relating to the person's alterhumanity.
- Qualities relating to being a system, which includes alterinity.
- Qualities relating to the person's neurotype, disability, mental illness, etc.
- Qualities relating to the person intersex status and specific intersex variations.
- Culture- or religion-exclusive qualities.
Few qualities fall under ipsine, but plenty of genders may be considered ipsine - autigender, neurogender, kingender, systemgender, bordergender, intergender, etc.
Preterine: All qualities that can be described as existing beyond ordinous gender concepts, but not beyond the concept of gender itself, which distinguishes them from yonderinities (which transcend existing qualities and qualities to be.) There may be a sense of eeriness or otherworldliness that kenochoric genders have without the feelings of genderlessness, gender apathy, (semi)-xenity, etc. that are common to kenosity.Examples of preterine qualities:
Infinitive: An abundance of gendered elements or gendered amplitude.
Negative: Minimal or diminished gender or a scarcity of elements.
Positive: Multiplicity, addition, or excess of elements.
Luxine: Gendered holiness, light, or divinity - when non-xenine.
Soporine: Related to tiredness and dreams - when non-xenine.
Noirine: Gendered light and positivity.
Elaline: Gendered creativity, honesty, passion, curiosity, and integrity.
Vocorine: A loud, boisterous, flamboyant, or flashy quality.
While the definition of preterine sounds very similar to itherine, the difference is in the otherness of itherinity versus the transcendent properties of preterinity. Preterinities may also feel “pseudo-xenine”, being tied to abstract concepts but not being outside of the human understanding of gender as seen in xenogenders.
Ineffaline: All qualities that defy any form of classification without it being questioning, unspecific, or yonderine. These terms never fit into any other category and may even exist outside of outherinity itself. There are no qualities that currently fall under ineffaline. Ineffalinities, however, are still not xenine because they don't exist outside the concept of gender - they are simply outside existing anthrine constructs.
