@viramoric
did you already know about virescin?
I didn’t know about it until you sent this, no. It’s not quite the same definition, though I could definitely see people identifying as both virescin and viramoric! Viramoric is an identity specifically for nonbbinary people though, and virescin is for people of any gender and seeing as it includes “gay” in the definition it seems to be more for people who identify as gay or same-gender attracted in some way.
So when is the LGBTQ+ community gonna start actually respecting or recognizing questioning people?
I’m kind of tired of this all or nothing, or either/or stuff with literally all categories and labels.
Like so many people do not fit neatly into any labels.. And will go for umbrella terms and you know “fluid” terms..
But I feel like since most of us question ourselves at some point, it’s really weird that questioning people wouldn’t be recognized.
It is a group that needs to be recognized to be honest. I know so many people who are non-labelled or uncertain or questioning.
I know so many people who constantly change labels and will go for multiple labels… So many people will go back and forth.
So why not let people just go into communities without being certain? I think we really need more communities that accept questioning people.
Hi, I’m Huxley. This blog is specifically for non binary people of color (Black, Asian, Latinx/Chicanx, Indigenous) to display enbies who aren’t white, skinny and androgynous. I wanted to see other people like me. I want people like me to see people like them! I feel this account is failing because nobody really makes submissions. This is a safe space for ALL queer people and a space for nb poc to feel seen and make their voices heard. We exist and I’m tired of being pushed to the side. I know you’re out there and I hope you find your way to my blog to showcase your beauty. I’m not giving up yet!
If you see this please let your nb poc friends know about my blog!
Something important that I don’t think gets talked about enough in the nonbinary community is that gendering a person as the gender that is the “opposite” of their AGAB when they don’t identify as a binary gender is still misgendering. This is true even if you partially identify with a binary gender or if you have no relationship to the binary whatsoever. I think that this especially important for people with non-western identities- imposing the gender binary on them in such a way is not only misgendering but also an act of colonialism.
If you don’t feel comfortable with being gendered as the gender that’s the “opposite” of your AGAB you are allowed to correct people and demand that they respect your actual identity. I know it can feel like your just lucky that they aren’t calling you your AGAB, but you still have every right to tell them that they are wrong.
Hi everybody! I made a survey in hopes of discovering which neopronouns are most popular, so I’d appreciate it if folks who use neopronouns could take a minute to fill it out! The results will help me update the educational materials in my school’s diversity center. If this survey doesn’t apply to you, feel free to reblog to boost! -Mod Pluto
To any trans women and transfeminine followers of mine, did you know there’s a pretty huge Etsy store which does gaff underwear and swimsuits specifically designed for trans people amongst its products? They go in a pretty decent range of sizes, including sizes for young girls, and while I do not personally know anyone who has used them, there’s a fuckton of positive reviews on the Etsy store. They have a ton of colours to choose from, different fabric choices, the works.
And for once they’re not marked “for crossdressers” too, they actually under “transgender”, so that’s (depressingly) unusual.
I’m mostly posting this because I’ve seen a lot of younger people recently in particular saying they never knew what gaffs were… a lot of people find them WAY MORE comfortable and convenient than tucking, so I would recommend looking into them if you’ve never done so before!
And even if you yourself don’t use or need this stuff, do pass this kind of info on to any friends of yours that might, guys! There’s always like a million more PSAs about transmasc stuff as opposed to transfem stuf tbh…
hi! I’m samir and I identify as hijra (an east indian/south asian trans/nonbinary identity) and to my knowledge there is no existing flag so I have made one.
pink and blue are for those of us who identify with binary genders as trans people, while the white is for those of us who are nonbinary
the red represents the divinity we were blessed with by Rama
non-hijra please share!!
Shout out to amab nonbinary lesbians! I know it’s tough and a lot of people are gonna be against your very existence but I just want you to know that I’m here for you and I’m proud of you, have a lovely day!! 🌟⭐️
I just want to do a quick shout out to all the people out there without a gender who don’t ID as nonbinary -
and who labels like nblm/nblm/nblnb (and a number of other identities that mention they are only for nonbinary people) -
just don’t fit or make you feel like you are being forced to ID as nonbinary to access positivity and spaces.-
I’m here for you and I hope you all find labels one day that work for you!
navigating and labeling your attraction to anyone as a non-aligned (or unaligned) nonbinary person is difficult — you might feel pressured to identify as sapphic/achillean to have a community and rejected by this exact community; you might feel like the smaller labels like orbisian/quadrisian (and even enbian) are rarely used and not well known at all while feeling disconnected from sapphic and achillean identities and communities
still, it is okay to id either way, to id as both, it’s okay to not be sure how you want to label your attraction, to think that you’d use another word for this if you could, it’s okay. you’re not hurting anyone. you’re not predatory or evil or “trying to get into a community you don’t belong to” for using the big label and you’re not “creating/using a million useless microlabels” for using the smaller ones
nonbinary people who have no connection to masculinity or manhood have just as much of a right to call themselves nblm as nonbinary people who do 🐝🌻
Wanna do direct action but you can’t run, can’t fight, can’t deal with stress, can’t risk getting arrested? Not near a community to support? You can still do something.
Like write to prisoners.
Prisons try to disappear people, isolate them, crush them. Don’t let that happen.
Write to activists in prison, write to trans people in prison, write to isolated prisoners, write to prisoners who no one else thinks are worth writing to.
Write to prisoners.
Are there any programs or websites that help facilitate this which are based on the UK that you know of? Most of the info I’ve found tends to be US-based or just gov.uk general info about writing to someone you know in prison.
But given that I’m chronically ill or seems like a great way to actually do something and be an active part of change.
Great to hear that you’re interested!
The Anarchist Black Cross is a prisoner support network that has chapters in a lot of countries and cities. In the UK there are:
London: https://network23.org/londonabc/
Brighton: https://www.brightonabc.org.uk/
Bristol: https://bristolabc.wordpress.com/
Other UK based groups include:
SOAS Detainee Support: https://soasdetaineesupport.wordpress.com (focused on supporting people in migrant detention)
The Bent Bars project: http://www.bentbarsproject.org/ (focused on LGBTIAQ+ prisoners)
The Empty Cages Collective: http://www.prisonabolition.org/
Prison Action London: http://www.prisonabolition.org/prison-action-london/
You can also find a prisoner to write to on your own via:
http://prisonersolidarity.net/data-explorer
Do check out some of the ‘do’s and don’t’ on one of these websites before you start, there are some basics like ‘don’t talk about illegal activities’ and ‘don’t stop writing without being honest to the person about the fact that you’re going to stop writing’ that are essential to know, and a lot of less important tips that just make it easier to start writing to someone you don’t know yet. Goodluck!
Shoutout to @freackthejester for pointing out Black and Pink (http://www.blackandpink.org), that can help you find LGBTIAQ+ prisoners in prison in the US, with chapters in:
Dorchester: [email protected]

Someone also requested resources for Australia so I’m going to add those to this reblog chain:
Anarchist Black Cross Oceania https://www.facebook.com/abcoceania/
Anarchist Black Cross Melbourne https://abcmelb.wordpress.com/
Indigenous Social Justice Association Melbourne http://www.isjamelbourne.com/
Antifascist Action Brisbane has also hosted prisoner solidarity events (https://www.facebook.com/AntifascistBrisbane/)
And whenever there is no explicit prisoner-support organization, ask your local anarchists! Most anarchist groups do some prisoner support as well since supporting those who defy the state is basic anarchist praxis. This long list of Australia anarchist organizations probably includes groups that do some prisoner support: https://anarchy.org.au/directory/
Also contributed by people in the notes of this post so far:

Turns out people really like the extra resources on this post so here we go. Most of these urls were listen by Anarchist Black Cross Gent but I took out some dead urls and make them clickable.

Since I hear more support for the people who didn’t always know they were LGBT+ than for people who actually were cis and/or straight in the past: this post is for the second group
I was both cis and straight in the past and honestly? That doesn’t invalidate who I am now, nor does it invalidate anyone else
Your past doesn’t always define who you are now, people are allowed to change
Hey! If you’re nonbinary but still figuring out where you stand as far as what to call your gender, that’s so, so okay!! And if your feelings towards yourself and different labels sway or change a ton, thats okay, too!! Be patient and take care of yourself while you’re finding out what feels right to you! You’re no less nonbinary than anyone else, and youre more than welcome in our community! 💕
[someone] loving [someone] tables!
I’m not sure how to describe those images, so click here for a list with most of these (with sources). The ones that aren’t there are mostly the ones based on people with binary genders, or nonbinary people in general:
men attracted at least to men = achillean
men attracted at least to nonbinary people = astroidian or adonic
men attracted at least to women = duaric
nonbinary people attracted at least to men = toric or quadrisian
nonbinary people attracted at least to nonbinary people = enbian
nonbinary people attracted at least to women = trixic or orbisian
women attracted at least to men = duaric
women attracted at least to nonbinary people = asterian or maedic
women attracted at least to women = sapphic
How to use:
1) Think about what your gender entails. For example, nonbinary woman.
2) Go to the line or one of the lines that specifies the gender you have. For nonbinary woman, you can go to nonbinary > woman or to woman > nonbinary. Both lines are the same.
3) Think about what your gender-based attraction or what you want to reveal about it entails. For example, nonbinary people and women.
4) Look for the column or columns that specify that attraction. In this case, again, you’ll have to look for either the nonbinary > woman column or the woman > nonbinary column.
5) See where the line and column cross! In this example, it should be iridian (nblnb, nblw, wlnb and wlw).
Remember you can use broader labels too! So if you are iridian, for instance, you can also use sapphic, enbian, and so on, if you want.
But how can you be both nonbinary and a man/a woman/a man and a woman?
Some nonbinary people may consider themselves one or both binary genders besides being nonbinary because:
They have multiple genders (at the same time or not), and one or some of them are binary or binary-adjacent; (examples: a person is trigender and their genders are man, woman and neutrois, or a person is genderfluid and their gender changes between agender and woman)
They have a single gender connected to one or both binary genders even if those genders aren’t binary; (examples: a person has a single gender that is a mix of maverique and woman, or a person is a proxvir, which means they have a gender similar to man but different in some way)
They have a certain connection to one or both binary genders because of presentation, pronouns/titles, desired transition, or other characteristics. (examples: a person is agender but doesn’t mind being treated as a man in general, or a person is dulcigender but has a connection to being a woman for desiring a physical transition similar to a trans woman)
But how can you be both a man and a woman without being nonbinary?
A nonbinary person may consider themselves both a man and a woman and prefer an identity that only talks about them being both a man and a woman.
A person who is both a man and a woman may also not want to identify as nonbinary for any reason.
But all those labels are too complicated/hard to remember! Why not just use ____?
You may not use them if you don’t want to, but there are obviously people who want to use those labels, or otherwise there wouldn’t be so much of them.
Shoutout to masculine, butch, or otherwise nonfeminine demigirls/women, because demigirl is constantly grouped as a “feminine” gender and all aesthetics and posts about it are really focused on pink and feminine and rarely if ever acknowledge masc demigirls/women. Masculine and butch and nonconforming demigirls/women I see you and you’re great and deserve far more recognition than you get. This goes for AMAB demigirls too. Explicitly. Exorsexists and transmisogynists are not welcome on this post.
NB people that have/want facial hair? So heckin’ valid.
NB people that have/want breasts? Valid.
NB people that have/want both breasts and facial hair? Valid AF.
NB people that have/want neither breasts nor facial hair? Super valid.
People with dysphoria that fluctuates between different genders? Wow what’s it like to be so VALID?!?
