Just realised it's trans day of visibility today bc y'all I was having a bad day but I just remembered how many multigender folks exist and it's so awesome. I exist at the same time as multigender trans girls and boys, as boygirls, as manwomen and womanmen, out there there's bigender people getting funky with gender presentation and multitrans girls trying additional pronouns and multitrans boys finding a new label for themselves. There are transneutral genderfluid people and transfemxenine girlthings and demifluid folks and transandrogynous enbies and cisfem guys and tris genderflux enben and it's just a wonderful place to be.
I feel like even other trans people who accept multigender people just don't seem to know what to do with multigender people.
I have to keep telling people to mix up the terminology they use for me, and not exclusively put me in one category or only use one kind of terminology to refer to me (such as only "masculine" terminology, or only feminine). I ask people to be more conscientious and use more masculine terms, and they start overcorrecting and forget to use feminine terms. I ask them to start doing that now, they overcorrect, rinse and repeat. People hesitate to put me in the category of "man."
No way Soul stop creating new blogs challenge. No but fr, hi y'all! This blog is inspired by my wonderful friend @thisisexorsexism and @this-is-antitransfemininity, @this-is-varsexism-transphobia and the new @this-is-binarism and @this-is-sexism.
Im a transfemmasc multigender enby boygirl (if your first question is "how??", check out this post [link] where I explain why I call myself the way I do) and I wanted to make a space specifically to call out multigenderphobia or multigendermisia, aka the discrimination and erasure of multigender identities. I see it a lot tied with rethoric that puts man/woman, masculinity/femininity, cis/trans, binary/nonbinary, gay/straight or gay/lesbian as opposite, mutually exclusive experiences.
This fuels the belief in oppositional sexism and harms *everyone*, but because non binary and specifically multigender people are rarely if ever focused on, even though this rethoric targets us in particular, I wanted to try and contribute my own to the community through this blog.
Should go without saying that any hatred towards contradictory labels is also multigenderphobia, although multigender people arent the only one to use them. This blog is therefore absolutely inclusive of mspec lesbians/gays, cistrans, gaybians, boygirls and manwomen, xenogenders, non binary men and non binary women, honeybee transfem and carpenter bee transmascs and all other labels used in good faith. Also should go without saying, any a-spec identities, ace, aro, afamilial, aplatonic, etc and oriented aroaces + polyamorous people.
This blog is also safe for systems and plurals of any origin, people of colour, intersex people, physically and/or mentally disabled people, neurodivergent people and all personality/mood disorders, and should go without saying but with the current discourse and infighting Ill state it, binary trans women and binary trans men. I support everyone in talking about their oppression and struggles.

If you recognise my name, I also run @our-genderquestioning-experience and @angels-safe-corner. Im not an activist and I am just a multigender student who really wants to do eir part to help other trans people.
I use ey/em/eir/eirs/emself pronouns alongside he/him and she/her *intercheangably* (I cannot stress enough to not just refer to me as she or he exclusively), alternatively it/its or any neos. Please do not use they/them for me, although I totally understand if it's used because you havent read my pronouns yet (aka as a gender neutral way to refer to anyone), but if you're reading this, Id rather you use my preferred pronouns than they/them.
The main header flag and dividers are the multigender flag made by @wrenflags in this post [link]
The profile picture is a sensory friendly softened version of the original multigender flag, made by @your-bigender-big-brother in this post [link] on which @rikkayeet applied the trans anarchy symbol, which you can find in this post [link] and the original design + different versions they made in this post [link]
Thattt should be all, asks will be open for anyone. Multigender people shoutout to y'all, you're awesome and wonderful and I love you <3
Hey y'all, asks will stay open, but due to exam season and personal things I might have more of a hard time running the account rn as far as reblogs goes. To clarify, Im not going anywhere! I want to be there to share joy and help others, but I have three requests this pride month.
If you need to talk, if you need to rant, scream of joy, if you want someone to listen, my askbox is open for you and I dont want you to think you'd be bothering me with it. All asks are posted unless explicitly stated otherwise and even if things may be a little harder for me, I still want y'all to know that if you need, asks are on
Share queer joy!! Send posts about happiness and supporting others. I will take some time away from engaging in discourse, and I want to center community and happiness during pride, for my own health

Not multigender phobia but multigender joy!!! My mom asked me about my gender identity (I identify as a transfemmasc agender boything and boygirlthing) so i explained it to her in detail and whilst she was confused, she asked questions very respectfully and in the end said she appreciated the talk and the ability to understand me more! ^_^ shoutout my mom!!
This is multigender joy!! Im so happy for you anon, this is wonderful <333
Solidarity kinda!
I recently discovered I am actually bigender, I am agender and androgyne! It makes me really happy to find out new things about myself and I'm excited to join the multigender community :3
That's so awesome, Im so happy for you!! I hope you'll make yourself at home, we're really glad to have you <333
What's your favourite thing about being multigender? (Asking this to hopefully bring some positivity)
Ohhh great question! Thank you for the ask!
Im honestly unsure how to reply because my favourite thing is the happiness I get from being free to be myself!! And that's not really specific to being multigender, Id say everyone who has been through a gender questioning journey and found what gives them euphoria is going to feel like that!
But I love calling myself a boygirl, I love being non binary, I love looking and being androgynous and mostly that it takes away the burden of thinking about how my identity isnt accepted by others when I can just be who I am and so live my life without that nagging at me. Also I absolutely love making multigender characters that have complex relationships with gender, I feel there is so much variation that is so cool to explore and I adore doing it!!
