#Ulterque

[masquerade-flags]

Ultrans three different flag designs

Ultrans - using both transgender and ultergender labels.

Ultcis, Ulteris

Ultcis - being both cisgender and ultergender, at the same time or fluidly. This could mean "being cis by perisex standards" and identifying as ultergender, but can also mean other things. The flag is the color of the iso flag combined with colors from these two flags 1 2, and design elements from these ones

Ulteris - being both isogender and ultergender, at the same time or fluidly.

Ablter, Ulterque

Ablter - being both absgender and ultergender, at the same time or fluidly.

Ulterque - being both utrinquegender and ultergender, at the same time or fluidly. Or being utrinquegender because of being ultergender.

Three different Ultris flags

Ultris - being transgender, cisgender, and ultergender, at the same time or fluidly. Or being trisgender because of being ultergender.

First flag is the the ultergender flag mixed with the tris flag h and I made. The second flag is the Ultrans and Ultcis flags from this post combined. The third is the ultergender flag combined with the most common tris flag. [These are exclusively for intersex use]

Proposing/requesting some new intersex terminology

In my talking and thinking about intersex and intersex studies, I've found a desire to put names some of the concepts and groups of people that are out there. Here's what I've come up with, and would like feedback. 💛

Alternate language for medical/identity models

Intermedicalist: referring to a person or ideas which support the pathologization of intersex. Alternate language for what Costello (2016) refers to as the medical/disorder model of intersex. Intended as a parallel with transmedicalist.

Interliberationist: an intersex person who supports intersex liberation, in contrast to intermedicalism. Alternate language for what Costello (2016) refers to the identity framework of intersex; the view of intersex as a social identity, and intersex people in need of liberation from pathologization and presumptions about sex/gender norms.

Language for how intersex people relate to gender

Extergender. An intersex person who is not intergender, i.e. their gender does not feel affected by being intersex.

Language for how intersex people do or do not relate to queerness

Interqueer: an intersex person who sees their intersexness as being queer 🌈

Ipsoqueer: an intersex person whose queerness comes solely from being intersex; they are heterosexual, cis/ipsogender, etc. A subtype of interqueer.

Ulterqueer: an intersex person who understands their intersexness as queer and is also queer in other ways (sexual orientation, gender identity, etc). A subtype of interqueer.

Interseparate: an intersex person who rejects the idea that being intersex makes them queer. Opposite of interqueer.

Interconforming an intersex person who disidentifies with queerness on all axes (they are hetero, cis/ipsogender, etc). A subtype of interseparate.

Internormative: an intersex person who rejects that being intersex makes them queer, but they are queer in other ways. A subtype of interseparate. Chosen as parallel to homonormativity and transnormativity.

In terms of feedback: these are all concepts I want names for, but other than intermedicalist & interliberationist I feel pretty tentative/uncertain about what I've come up with. If you have ideas for improvements please let me know! 🤗

I'm a little worried that ipsoqueer and ulterqueer would lead to confusion with ipsogender and ultergender but also couldn't think of anything better!

EDITS: - 2023-11-27: changed "interstraight" to "interseparate", TY to anon who suggested the change. 🏳️‍⚧️
