So, recently I've gained a large interest in linguistics. One topic I've been especially interested in is conlangs.
Conlangs, short for constructed languages, are, well, languages that were purposefully constructed, instead of naturally evolving with society. The makers of conlangs, called conlangers, make new phonology, grammar, vocabulary, & everything else that comes w/ a language- yes, including pronouns- all on their own.
So that got me thinking.... Aren't neopronouns kind of like these conlangs, but only for the pronouns? W/ this info on mind, I've created a new definition for neos:
"Neopronouns are pronouns that were constructed into a language, instead of naturally evolving with one."
Obviously, this would mean it/its & one/ones aren't actually neopronouns, but honestly, I've never personally fully seen them as such anyways.
I also feel like arguments that are made against conlangs are also made against neos.. e.g. "Why are you learning a conlang? You should learn a "real" language like the rest of us." "Why do you use neopronouns? You should use "real" pronouns like the rest of us." "Why make a new language? The ones we have are good enough." "Why make new pronouns? The ones we have are good enough."
This also gives an alternative name to neopronouns: constructed pronouns. I like this name because it shortens to conprons & that's fun lol.
Anyways, that's it. Feel free to use this definition if you want!
v Nisideras // All/any pronouns except they/them v
-----
v Nisidess // All/any pronouns except it/its v
-----
The prefix "Nisi" means "save for/except/unless/etc" in Latin*, & the suffixes mean corresponding pronouns in Swedish* (sorry for the clashing languages!)
Here's a flag for my personal gender experience (term currently unnamed)
(Unnamed): Opposite of "Gendervast"; where Gendervast is when one has one gender that can be described through multiple terms/labels, (Unnamed) is when one has a lot of genders that can only be described though one/a few terms/labels.
The white circle represents all the genders mixing together while the rainbow going into the circle represents those multiple genders.
so i was originally gonna make a comic explaining different reasons one may use an mspec gay label (e.g. bi lesbian) but it appears my computer isn't working & because of that i'm unable to access that w.i.p. comic, but i still thought the list i wrote could be helpful, so instead, i've opted to make it a text post :]
first off: if you don't know, "mspec" is short for multi-spectrum, & it describes anyone who experiences attraction to multiple genders (bi, pan, omni, ply, etc). for this post, "gay" will be used to describe anyone w/ same-gender attraction (lesbian [wlw], turian [mlm], cenelian [nblnb], etc). so, an "mspec gay" is someone who uses both of these terms to describe oneself. why would one use both? well, here's a list of possible reasons:
one uses the split-attraction model (so, multisexual homoromantic or vice-versa &/or differing tertiary attractions).
one is mspec but has a strong preference for the same gender- strong enough one doesn't feel comfortable just saying mspec but can't just say gay as one has other attractions.
one who has a fluid attraction & switches between mspec & gay. one may find it tedious to change one's label every time it switches, but may want to be more specific than abro-.
one who has gay attraction to a binary gender as well as (that gender)-aligned non-binary people (or nbs in general), & doesn't wanna lump in nbs w/ that gender.
one who is multigender &/or genderfluid & experiences attraction to multiple genders one also experiences... so, one experiences gay attraction to multiple genders (e.g. wlw & nblnb at the same time/switches between)
one who is mspec but wants to highlight/emphasize one's gay attraction, as one may find it more important than one's other attractions.
one who is mspec but only desires to act on one's gay attraction, aka one is orchid- towards genders except those similar to one's own.
one who is attracted to multigender &/or genderfluid individuals & therefore can experience both gay & non-gay attraction towards the same person (either simultaneously or switches between).
one who originally thought one was gay, however has since found out one's actually mspec, but still feels attachment to the gay label.
one who uses the gay label to describe one's current or desired relationship(s), instead of one's attraction (e.g. "i'm in a gay relationship.").
one who is questioning & is temporarily using both labels to see how they fit.
one who simply prefers both labels, or any other reason one may want to use both!
but yeah, that's all the reasons i could come up w/ off the top of my head.
it's important to remember that labels mean different things to different individuals- so, for example, if being a lesbian means something to you, it can mean something completely different to someone else. labels aren't meant to be conformed to, they're meant for you to conform around yourself- labels aren't meant for you to feel trapped, they're meant for you to feel comfortable.
because of this, it is important to not gatekeep others out of a label just because they don't fit in it the exact same way you do, or don't use the exact same definition of it you do. as frankly, gatekeeping what labels other folks use, when there's literally no way to know why exactly those folks choose to use it, because you don't know them, is weird.
anyways, that's the end of the post, i hope it helps someone out there who was wondering about the label :D
^ Sollunagender - A gender that has a connection to both the sun & the moon, whether that be w/ concepts surrounding them or their aesthetics in general.
^ Eclipsegender - A gender that has a connection to solar &/or lunar eclipses, whether that be w/ concepts surrounding them or their aesthetics in general.
^ Sollunagender - A gender that has a connection to both the sun & the moon, whether that be w/ concepts surrounding them or their aesthetics in general.
^ Eclipsegender - A gender that has a connection to solar &/or lunar eclipses, whether that be w/ concepts surrounding them or their aesthetics in general.
(Others may have made genders like these, but if they have, I have not seen them.)
So I thought it would be fun to make some Spacegenders but for specific colors, so... here we are!
Basically, these genders are when one feels connection to space & a specific color, so, for example, one could feel like one's gender is a red-colored planet or a blue nebula. One may also feel like one's gender is (color)-colored space in general.
Anyways, here's all the flags I've made!
Spaceredic | Spaceorangic | Spaceyellowic
Spacegreenic | Spacebluic | Spacepurplic
Spacemagentic | Spacemonochromic
And some special ones!
Spacerainbowic | Spacepastelic
For when one's gender is connected to both space & rainbows, or when one's gender is connected to rainbow-colored cosmos || For when one's gender is connected to both space & pastels, or when one's gender is connected to pastel-colored cosmos
(^ For all the other ones, replace rainbow(s)/pastel(s) w/ their respective colors.)
Yeah, that's about it. Feel free to use the ones I've made or make your own for other colors!
Description - One who feels like one's both Hypergender & Minzerogender. AKA experiencing gender more intensely/strongly than usual & experiencing it so little it feels like it's gone into negatives at the same time. AKA one who has both more than 100% gender & less than 0% gender.
May also describe one who feels a gender *so* intensely that it feels like it has "capped", & is now going into negatives (If that makes sense).
The name is a combination of the words "more" (Mor-) & "less" (-les). It can also be used as a prefix, so a "Morlesboy" would be one who is both over 100% boy & under 0% boy.
Alt flag that's easier to replicate:
The bright blue stripe represents over 100% gender, the black represents under 0% gender, & the fade to white represents the mix of these, while the direct blue/black touching on the non-simplified flags represents when they're completely separate, as well as "polar opposites".
Other related terms I don't have flags for currently:
Morlesflux - One who fluctuates between <0% gender, 0-100% gender, & >100% gender.
Morlespolar - One who fluctuates/switches between <0% gender & >100% gender, w/ no in-between.
hey!! just wanted to say that termnemo (apologies if i’m spelling this wrong) is such a good term!!!!!! i’m definitely adding it to my gender list, if that’s alright w/ you!! do you have any pronouns to go w/ that term ? if not, it’s completely okay. have an amazing day <333333
Hi! Sorry for the late answer, I accidentally forgot about this ^ ^" Thank you! & of course, totally feel free to use it! I originally didn't have any pronouns to go along w/ it, but if you want some sets I came up w/ could be ne/nem/nems or maybe ne/nem/nemo or something along those line? But yeah, thanks for the ask, & I hope you have an amazing day as well!! :D
Neopronounfluid: Also known as Neofluid or Neoprofluid, it described someone who is fluid between, well, neopronouns. One may have other pronouns, so long as they are only fluid between neos. E.g. One may always use he/they pronouns, but switch between using ae/aer, kit/kits, & nix/nixs.
Alt flag:
Flags made by combining neopronoun & Genderfluid flags.
(Already posted this to a couple places but figured I should post here too.)
Unutra-: One who is repulsed/averse to something (sex, romance, etc) in conversation, media, & the outside world in general, but is fine w/ such things when daydreaming/imagining them within one's own mind. I.e. One is repulsed/averse to this topic on the "outside" but is fine w/ it on the "inside". E.g. One may feel grossed out when watching a romantic scene in a movie, but will enjoy daydreaming about one's characters doing romantic activities.
"Unutra" means "inside" in Latin (I think). Can either be considered a Microlabel under Aego- or a label adjacent to Aego-, depending on your definition. Can also be considered (sex/romance/etc)-repulsed Aego-.
Here's the flags!
^ Unutrasexual
^ Unutraromantic
^ Unutrarose (aroace)
Here's the flag meaning:
Text version: The dark pink stripes represent one's repulsion from the topic in conversation/media, white represents one being fine w/ it & even enjoying it in one's own mind, the dark gray stripe between these two represents the distinction/difference/barrier between the "outside" & "inside", the middle differently colored stripe describes which topic one feels Unutra- towards (in this case purple represents sex, green represents romance, & blue represents both), & the light blue spiral in the middle represents one's mind.
(I made this term/flag almost a year ago [& never shared it] so there may be some other term similar to it now, i just didn't want this to go to complete waste!)
(Sorry for bad flag quality, again, a made it almost a year ago, & I wasn't great at making flags then!)
Termnemo - When you know what your gender/orientation/etc is, but there is currently no existing term you can find to describe it perfectly. Mainly meant to be a temporary label solution until an appropriate term is found/coined, but if one doesn't bother to find/coin one for whatever reason, then it may be a more permanent label.
This isn't the same as questioning, as one who is Termnemo is sure, or at least, has some grasp on what one' identity is, one just doesn't have a label to describe it.
It isn't the same as Pomo-, Unlabelled, etc. either, as one does want a label to describe their experience, they just can't find one, & may not be sure about making one themself (or simply haven't yet).
Here's some simplified flags:
The original I made w/ the first flag v
& one I made just now! v
I think the flag had meaning at one point or another, but unfortunately at this moment I can't remember it :/
Feel free 2 use & I hope this helped at least one of you :]
Introducing - The Pangender Fragment Gender System!
(I made this account to post this & haven't used Tumblr prior, so some things may be weird!)
I noticed their weren't very many Multigender labels out there that fit what I was looking for - so, I decided to make my own, based shamelessly on the Genderfluid Fragment Gender System!!
I had originally coined some of these terms just for myself, such as Pansatyret & Panspirit, but a couple days ago I thought "Ah, why the 'ell not, if I'm gonna coin these terms, why not coin the whole system?" So, here we are!
These can either be referred to as Pangender(suffix) or Pan(suffix), however I'm gonna use the latter for simplicity's sake.
I've already made flags for some of the terms (which you'll see at the end), however, if you want to make your own flag for any of these terms, all power to you! In fact, I'd love to see 'em!
(Should also be noted for each term, it goes by the definition "All genders within one's culture & experience", & "masculine"/"feminine" may also mean "man-aligned"/"woman-aligned", I just don't feel like typing that out for each one lol)

^ Panspirit flag!
^ Pansatyret flag!
^ Panflicket flag!
^ Panflickeur flag!
Feel free to use any of these terms/flags if you feel like they fit you, as well as create your own!
If you're one of the coiners of a genderfluid term I used & don't like me making it pangender, please tell me & I'll make sure to remove it from this post!
