my new gender term. it’s called mirarel, or mirarigender. you can also just call it gender mirroring or mirrored gender, and it’s meant to be a parallel to mirrored pronouns. this term is for when you are the same gender as whoever is talking to or about you. it’s similar to things like mirrorgender, but in this instance, you don’t change based on the people around you in a given moment, or based on any specific type of relationship. you simply are the same gender as whichever person is talking to or about you in any given moment, regardless of where you are, or if they even know you. it’s pretty much the same as mirrored pronouns, but with gender instead.
like with mirrored pronouns, the experience could be more fuzzy or more clear. with fuzzy mirroring, you match the general, broad characteristics of whoever is talking to / about you; if someone who is genderspace is referring to you, you might just be generally “nonbinary” or “some space-related gender,” for instance. with clear mirroring, the match is exact. if someone who is genderspace is referring to you, you are also genderspace. i think there could also be odd mirroring, where you always match the gender as the person talking to / about you, but your presentation or other characteristics are always different, and other things like that.
the name comes from the latin word mirari (“to wonder at; admire.”)
like with other matching genders, pangender, etc., this won’t apply to mirroring genders that you literally can’t experience, like culture-specific genders, neurogenders that don’t apply to you, and that kind of thing. in those instances, a user might be obscurian, neutral, or entirely agender.
Years ago, I designed this multigender flag and symbol. I ended up finding the original post for them archived, and I’m gonna re-upload them here.
So, this is my multigender flag proposal, part 2! It also includes a proposed multigender symbol that I made to go along with it. The plus sign on the symbol represents having an indeterminate amount of multiple genders, and the diagonal lines coming off of it are based off of the epicene symbol and subsequent genderfluid symbols, mostly as a homage.
I kept the blues and oranges from the most well-known multigender flag as a show of respect. Of course, I didn’t base every stripe off of individual umbrella terms, because I knew it would be inevitable I’d leave some out if I tried that. Instead, I focused more on it being a wide range of colors that I’m sure anyone could relate to some or all of, as a way to show the variety of potential genders someone could be.
So, this is a flag for people with multiple genders. This can include bigender, trigender, genderfluid, pangender, and many more, as well as just being its own term.
Here is the symbol, one is in white and one is in black. They are of course completely free to use for your own stuff, to plaster everywhere, literally anything you want, I’m releasing this fella to the wild. Hell, you can even slap it on a different multigender flag if you want.
This is a term for when someone is both kenochoric and maverique in some way. I couldn’t decide which version of the name I liked the most, so I just used all three.
This is meant to be a broad label for anyone who is in both groups, whether it be simultaneously, being fluid between them, one being a part of the other’s experience, or something along those lines.
Not to be confused with kenochorique, which is a term for someone who is kenochoric in an abinary sense, but not specifically maverique.
The symbol on most of them is a combination of the maverique symbol and the kenochoric symbol, which is right here:
