was thinking about how often neogender-centric spaces [like mogai] are specifically focused on coining, to the point where finding actual talk about personal experiences and other things is kinda hard to find, and also how it could make someone feel disconnected from themselves because there’s so many cool things to look at and enjoy, but it’s hard to find people sharing personal experiences or having long talks about it that are easily accessible. so i think maybe there should be a tag that’s for things like mogai and whatnot, but that shouldn’t be tagged on coining or flag posts, so that there’s a dedicated tag to find things other than that, like discussion, personal experiences, and similar, not things related to coining or making flags
stuff to consider:
- shouldn’t be based on any one specific term ie xenogender or outherine so that it’s inclusive of everyone
- maybe? shouldn’t use a term like mogai/liom/etc. necessarily? because not everyone who uses these terms is in those communities. but idk
- idk
cuz like, coining is great! it’s how we get new terms. but also like… not only does it feel isolating to not see many people sharing your experience outside of coining posts, but it also kinda just adds to the shitty stereotype some queer people have that things like xenogenders, neogenders in general but especially xenos, are just these ~aesthetic~ things and not something to take seriously. like no. they’re real identities just as much as any other. but because of how expansive neogenders can be, and the huge amount of variation people can have, mixed with just a general culture of coining and flag making (which, to be clear, is really cool) means that it can leave a bit to be desired when it comes to other aspects of being neogender or xenogender or outherine or kenochoric or Whatever. there should be more to it that’s front-and-center i think. instead of being something that’s kinda hard to really find or even begin to search for
