Girlfriendgender
a gender that is expressed/represented by the word "girlfriend"! someone with this gender is not necessarily a woman, nor even necessarily has a feminine gender, but they identify with the world "girlfriend" the way someone else may identify with "man" or "woman".
it could also be a gender that is performed by being somebody's girlfriend, or that is related to the feelings associated with being a girlfriend.
while "girlfriend" has romantic connotations, this gender is not necessarily related to romantic relationships, as "girlfriend" is just a word and can be applied to any relationship, even a platonic one, if the involved parties agree to use it.

no img ID, I’m too mentally tired and anxious right now.
I know they look sorta similar to the lesbian and non-binary flags but SHUSH. /silly
I use enby/non-binary as encompassing anything not in the gender binary for this post, and the word partner as a catch all, but feel free to edit the description to your own liking.
