#non disordered system

[msuiclovr]

"more people per people" is actually exactly how i want people to perceive our plurality. we're multiple people in one person. not one body, one person. multiple people per person. if that even makes sense

Masc-heavy plural system flag we made because the only one that we could find was lowkey ugly 😔 it basically just means a system that has mostly masculine-leaning parts/alters/headmates etc.

btw just so it’s clear this isn’t a coining blog or anything just something I did for like 2 minutes on a whim

the first 3 is the ‘[blank]-heavy’ system template and the last one is the plural flag but the purple is blue. galaxy is because we like space 🙂‍↕️

friendly reminder that endogenic ≠ non-disordered

Being an unintentionally created system is wild like wdym i started daydreaming and roleplaying with me myself and i years ago before i even heard of what a system was which led to this

Plural culture is accidentally reblogging the same posts over and over because you didn't realize someone else already reblogged it

Honestly we don’t like the idea of us a non-CDD system using the term “trigger” to refer to situations and stimuli that makes a system member front

So I present to you an alternative term to refer to that instead!!

Command / Commanded

A non-medical term

This was thought for non-disordered systems but if it applies to yours also use it too!!

In-commanded: Replacement for a “positive trigger”. A switch stimuli that’s makes a system member front

Out-commanded: Replacement for a “negative trigger”. A switch stimuli that’s makes a system member leave front

How to use:

My headmate Timekeeper gets commanded to front when they see clocks

I get in-commanded get I see flowers usually

Ah sorry! They get out-commanded with that artist they don’t like it so much

[Name]’s commands: are bees, crystals, candies and rocks

[Name] dislikes fights I usually get commanded to deal with it

I hate how people think that system origins will dictate how a system functions

People tend to think traumagenic means some form of disordered-ness, having dissociation, amnesia, splitting, etc.

And people tend to think endogenic means nothing disordering at all, perfect memory, being able to form headmates at will, no issues whatsoever

When neither of those are the case, at all. Even if we push aside the fact that endogenic systems can be disordered as well as have CDDs, that doesn't mean anything in the fact that they can experience amnesia, dissociation, plainly just trouble existing due to being a system. Even ones purposefully created! Just because you created a system, doesn't mean everything will be just peachy. The only thing you're doing is making a separate being to live with you, which can cause a lot of struggles

And traumagenic systems can be completely non-disordered, they can be what you'd imagine an endogenic system to be like, because the only thing separating the two is origin

By setting these ideas within the plural community, it's only further separating traumagenic and endogenic systems, which, yes, while I believe that endogenic and traumagenic systems should have their own spaces, I don't believe that we as a community should further the idea that we're nothing alike, when that's really not the case.

An endogenic system that has amnesia might believe they're actually traumagenic due to how the community makes it out to be, same with a traumagenic system, one that has no disordering features might believe they're endogenic because they fit the standard for it

And while that's not the worst thing in the world, it's not good either.

I just really feel like we should be lessening the stereotyping that goes on within the system community, it's only going to cause more issues and infighting in the long run
