transambiguous

a term for transgender people transitioning towards a gender, an expression or a body they consider ambiguous or that is seen as ambiguous by society. may be called transambi for short.

the term transambiguous itself is ambiguous as ambiguity can mean many things to different people. ambiguity with regards to gender is not exclusive to androgyny, it can be relating to any genders/gender expressions or be ungendered.

transambiguous can be an umbrella term for various experiences. it is completely up to each individual to decide whether they find this term fitting or not.

examples: a transneutral person who is perceived ambiguously by society may identify as transambiguous. a transgender person who presents ambiguously but wants to avoid gendered words may identify as transambiguous. a transneumav person who is mixing different aspects of gender/expression may identify as transambiguous. a transgender person medically transitioning to a body they consider ambiguous may identify as transambiguous. a multigender, genderfluid, centrigender or similar person who considers their gender experience to be ambiguous may identify as transambiguous.

i coined this term because as a maverique, "ambiguous" is the best term for my gender presentation because it's not inherently gendered, not inherently tied to the gender binary. my (ideal) gender presentation is confusing to people; either they don't know which binary box to put me in, or i get put in both binary boxes in somewhat equal amounts, which is currently the best i can hope for as a nonbinary person. i used to feel a strong connection to (trans)androgyny as i found people's confusion about my gender affirming, but something about it felt "off". i specifically do not identify as (trans)androgynous anymore because i consider that term to be misgendering me, i do not consider any part of me to be masculine or feminine, let alone a combination of those.

the colours of the transambiguous flag are based on both interpretations of the dress, a viral ambiguous image from a few years ago. it's also loosely based on this type of trans[expression] flag. the individual stripes do not have specific meaning, the flag as a whole represents ambiguity. i chose these colours because everything else i could come up with centred androgyny, which i wanted to avoid.

I hope it's okay for me to do, but as someone who's really interested in the blue/gold dress phenomenon, I attempted a flag for this that is based off closer colors to the image itself.

For anyone who's curious on how it worked, these specific colors were read differently by other people's brains depending on if their brain read the environment as bright or dark. in reality, the colors are light blue and dark yellow, but as their stripes stand, the light blue looks like a shadow on white fabric, so the dress is read as a yellow dress in the dark. but it can also be read as the yellow being a dark dress (black and blue) with a light shined on it, like from a camera's flash or bright sunlight around the dress outside. the background changes the way these colors read!

Here's an old gif illustrating this that i remember seeing on tumblr back in the day, sorry idk the artist.

here's the effect happening in motion on a real garment

Essentially it's a great example for a classroom when teaching art students how shadows and light sources are often colored rather than just white or black.

here's one more pic. once again, sorry no credit

so... ANYWAYS i designed a flag design for this based off colors that are closer to the dress, i hope thats okay. i dont personally identify as this but i do really love the concept.

if i had to add meaning to it, I would say that the top 2 stripes and the bottom 2 stripes are the same to illustrate the similarities people under this label find with eachother and their experiences. the stripes are mirrored so the colors are on different places and this can represent that even if people under the label may share core aspects, they wont always match the same way. of course, the light and the shadow represents people under the label under different walks of life, people's differing emotions towards their own gender (euphoria vs dysphoria for example) and it's interaction with the stripes around it are what makes someone unique and of course, in many cases, ambiguous, whatever it means to them as an individual.

alternative versions

these flag's stripes are in no way perfectly equal i 100% just threw them in by hand so if anyone wants to make better versions please be my guest lol

and of course, i just did this for fun. im not a part of the community, and i dont mean any offense.

[the-delta-quadrant]

no problem!

the flag not being colour picked from the image was intentional, as i wanted to represent both interpretations rather than the actual image, like the two drawings you shared. another reason i didn't colourpick from the actual image is because it always ends up being low contrast and i prefer higher contrast flags. this way it's also more similar to the other transgender flags linked above.

but of course, if anyone wants to use any of your flags that's completely fine.

The flag has four stripes of varying width on the top and bottom.

I based these on the knights in tarot, but they don't have to be related to tarot! That was just the inspiration for them, since a headmate has been looking for something like this. I used Italian for the names, since tarot originated in Italy, and I'm not very good with flags, so the top half is just the knightcenic flag, and the bottom is based on the color of the respective tarot suites :') that's all

Knightcenic, the -knight suffix, and the knightcenic flag were made by @creatureboything!
