People often complain about "how many genders there are". When you go through school, you learn that there are three states of matter. You also learn that there are two genders. Of course, this is not the reality. You may learn that plasma is a fourth state of matter, and that there are transgender or nonbinary people.

Let's take a look at the true number of states of matter...

I feel that if Bose-Einstein condensate is a valid state of matter, then girlflux is a valid label.

The real world is FAR from simple. Not even matter is binary (or quaternary).

if this post reaches 500 notes, i will start a podcast where i will talk about my fictional crushes in a totally unhinged manner, like britanny broski talks about masked men, traumadump without anyone asking for it, and about various topics that make my serotonin levels go brrr (mostly about art, history/culture and queer stuff), video essay-ish-style, but executed in a worst way possible

Once when I was in 10th grade physics, I was showing off my new file folder to my friends before class. The folder was rainbow, with each tab being a different color, so of course I happily declared that it was gay.

“Don’t say that. It’s rude.”

I looked at my physics teacher, confused, until I remembered that “gay” used to be used as an insult.

I couldn’t help but laugh a little which she didn’t take well until I clarified: “I’m literally gay though. The folder being gay is a good thing.”

She didn’t really know how to react and just kinda walked away while my friends and I laughed quietly to ourselves.

Remembering this story makes me appreciate the progress we’ve made, even just within my own lifetime. I’ve been openly gay to everyone in my life except for one set of grandparents, and have faced little to no negative consequences for this. My friends and family have supported me, anyone who didn’t kept it to themself.

I know this isn’t true everywhere, and I am incredibly lucky to live in a supportive environment, but it makes me so happy to think that “gay” went from being a go-to insult for teens and tweens to being an identity some can wear proudly.

As an Ace/Aro person who likes music I have a solution to some of those love songs:

I believe in a thing called Lunch, just listen to the grumble of my tum

I would eat anything for Lunch but I won't eat tha...ah...ah...at

The Lunch shack is a little old place where we can eat together

You.... Your Lunch is on Fire

Well, I wanna eat with you on a mountain

I wanna dine with you by the sea

I wanna lunch like this forever

Until the sky falls down on me

I Lunch myself, I want you to Lunch me

When I'm feeling down I want Lunch before me

Shit through the cloth and you're to blame

You give lunch a bad name

Indigestion starts when I ate your game

You give lunch a bad name

Yeah you give lunch a bad name

Don't need money, won't take fame

don't need no credit card to ride this train

it's strong and it's sudden and it's cruel sometimes

but it might just save your life.

That's the power of Lunch

Unfortunately you can't do it for all songs but the few it works on are amazing.

what's this blog about?

this blog is about maverique visibility, pride & celebration and anything else related to the maverique identity. vesper's (the person who coined the term) maverique blog has been inactive for a few years, so i decided to make one to give some visibility to something that a lot of people only treat as a hypothetical. for maverique culture, please go to @maveriquecultureis.

on this blog, you're welcome to ask questions, be proud, be visible, be you.

who runs this blog?

i'm Delta and my pronouns are they/them. i'm asexual, omni, fat, disabled, white and of course maverique. i've been out as maverique since 2018.

what is maverique?

in short, maverique is a gender that is disconnected from manhood, womanhood, neutrality and anything derived from them, without being genderless. for further reading, i recommend the coining post.

Friendly reminder that, even though you use one pronoun in one language you don’t have to use the same one in another.

Using they/them in English,

The equivalent of it/it in Norwegian

And a neopronoun in German

Is completely fine and dandy

✨Pronouns✨ have different associations and mouthfeels in different languages and you shouldn’t feel restricted to a singular pronoun in any language.

I want to start a new tag game, assign neos to the person you reblog from

It's okay to go where you can.

Sometimes we don't always have access to the communities that would be most beneficial and relevant to our identities.

If that's the community you feel most welcomed by, as well as being your only option, that's okay.

You can have overlapping experiences and that doesn't invalidate your or your group's identities to have that.

A cis ace woman may relate with a trans allo man on feelings of exclusion, that doesn't necessarily mean that either have the wrong identity.

However, being in communities not specific to your identity can also be helpful and/or educational.

For me, although unsure if I'm aspecs, I discovered tertiary attraction due to interacting with the aspecs community.

This doesn't only apply to queer/gsrm/lgbtqia+ communities, but it's the circumstance I relate to the most.

Do you make flags? I kind of want a xenomav flag, but I don't like the one I've found (it only uses red/pink to represent xenogender which makes it seem like fem mav to me, I want a xenine one)

xenogender+ maverique flag

What about these? In the last one I replaced the pastel orange and yellow with the maverique's orange and yellow colors. The first one is just the xenogender flag with a white stripes between pastel orange and pastel yellow stripes. I also tried with ten stripes, below:
