#nonbinary terms

[vixen-vibe]

I now headcanon Nico to be enby such as he goes by He/him pronouns but doesn't use terms like son or boy so he goes by nonbinary terms

Son of hades=child of hades, Brother=sibling, Boyfriend=partner or significant other you get the idea

I hope this makes sense and that you guys like it

Special thanks to @m3lth3ph4nt0m for filling my head with solangelo brain rot and giving me this idea ○~○

uhhhhh maybe new gender reveal???? I was doing more gender deep diving (ugh, because OF COURSE I have to do more gender questioning just when I thought I was clear what my gender is) and I found these cool identities, and they kinda clicked for me. may need to do more questioning and research. quoiby/umbraquoi still fits for me, but I wanna find a term that is BOTH nonbinary and agender, because that fits me too (if anyone has a term that fits that pls tell me!)

Lovely interaction I had the other day:

Me: hey, mom, what do you call (Sparky)?

Mom: …their name?

Me: yeah, but, like, me and (Lotus) are your sons

Mom: mhm?

Me: so what would they be?

Mom: …child?

Dad, popping out of nowhere: SPROG

Sparky, on the couch: YES

Moral of the story is that parents should call their nonbinary child their sprog

Othran flag because I realized I didn't make one yet!

Othran is a nonbinary alternative for woman or man. The term was created on July 1st 2023, by me. Note that "nonbinary alternative" does not mean it's "unisex/gender neutral" meaning it could refer to anyone of any gender, it is explicitly for nonbinary people who are not women or men in any way.

[ID: A pride flag with five horizontal stripes of: Dark grey, light grey, white, pale yellow, and black. End ID.]

This flag, like all my pride flags, is public domain, which means you are explicitly encouraged to download it, share it, and use it for anything you like -- including in designs you're selling.

If you can figure out where the color scheme comes from (besides my synesthesia), you get a symbolic gold sticker.

You can download the HD version of this flag from the internet archive here.

If you're trying to hand-make something with this flag and only have limited colors, you can replace the two grey stripes with whatever single shade of grey you can get your hands on.

If you create terms and pride flags for Queer identities, please get into the habit of uploading them to the web archive before you post them, and then linking that in your post, like I've done here. Too many terms get lost because of blogs being deactivated!

Creating an account is easy and free, and they don't spam your inbox with emails. You'll also get access to all the books that have been donated to their open library, to borrow and read for free!

Reminder to nonbinary folks that if you personally want to be considered in a gay man's or gay woman's attraction, that it's totally fine and ultimately up to you.

I feel like most folks talk about the side were not all nonbinary folks want to be included in labels like mlm or wlw, which is 1000% fine but it's also fine if you want to be included as well. Multigender nonbinary folks who consider themselves wlw and mlm exist. Non aligned nonbinary folks who use sapphic or veldian (and words that are similar) in a way that communicates that they're fine being included in gay men's and gay women's attraction, also exist. This also goes for man-aligned nonbinary people who aren't men but use mlm and woman-aligned nonbinary people who aren't women but use wlw.

It's literally all comes down to what a nonbinary individual is comfortable with. Nonbinary folks who want to be included in labels like wlw and mlm aren't misgendering ourselves, nor are we the reason why our community is so misunderstood, neither are we "making the community look bad". That being said, respect both sides wishes. Don't automatically assume that every nonbinary person uses mlm, wlw, nblw or nblm. But don't knock any nonbinary people that don't use those labels.

Nonbinary Terms 101

💛⚪💜🖤

- Parent

Instead of using sister/brother, use:

- Sibling

Instead of using girlfriend/boyfriend/wife/husband, use:

- Partner

- Lover

- Significant Other

- Spouse

- Enbyfriend

Instead of using niece/nephew, use:

Note: These are terms for Nonbinary people to use, but Nonbinary people can use any term they'd like! If one wants to be called a "wife", they are still nonbinary and valid! These are just androgynous terms for us to use. Some of these terms are more exclusive for only nonbinary people to use, like enbyfriend and enban/enben/enby. Most of these are just for nonbinary people to use but anyone can use them for themselves.

"You shouldn't identify as [blank] because it might confuse the cis/straights"

Honey with as much kindness as can be conveyed through text, that kinda sounds like the fault of the cis/straight people.

The world is filled with complex people and experiences and we don't actually help anyone by saying it isn't. Its the job of the oppressors to clear up their misunderstandings. Not the job of the marginalized to somehow become... not... themselves.
