The Recontextualization and the Disidentification of Gender
(essay under the cut)
Maverinity is an autonomous gender quality that lies outside of masculine, feminine, neutral, and null - this makes it an outherine identity. While it is obvious that the intrinsic categories that maverinity falls into are autonomous and outherine (both at the same time), there are two very distinct features to this autonomy that are specific to the maverine experience: The recontextualization of gender and the disidentification of gender.
Autonomy starts with a separation from any governance, which is why maverique - a βmaverick-likeβ gender - gets its name from being a maverick of sorts. It stands out, existing separately from any pre-established gender category. It isn't masculine, feminine, neutral, or null but is a distinct gendered feeling based on the βpersonal inner convictionβ of one's gender. What this means is that our gender is defined by ourselves with none of the stringencies that come from conventional gender. Maverinity, the gender quality tied to being maverique, exists outside of the norm just the same.
When we recontextualize gender for ourselves, we reshape what it means to be a specific gender and shake up the expectations connected to it. If I were to use my own gender as an example, I would say that my malehood is of a maverine quality. While it may look like traditional malehood from someone else's perspective, its experience is far outside of the binary and is more comparable to abinarity. But it is the reshaping of my malehood that makes this gender experience an autonomous one, not simply an abinary or outherine one.
Maverinity is also the recontextualization of gender itself, rather than relying on existing genders as the context. Most people might think of gender as binary, nonbinary, multigender, neutral, and genderless (as very broad terms for several corresponding genders.) A maverine gender does not fit in with any of these terms, giving us a brand-new category for genders that doesnβt look like typical genderedness. This means that maverinity can recontextualize existing genders as well as gender as a whole: How this manifests will change from person to person depending on what maverinity means to them.
Disidentification is the other part of gender autonomy. It is the rejection of gendered expectations and of the rigidity that comes with being forced into a box. For example, one might have a gender that is not binary, but they may elect to not call themselves nonbinary or abinary either. Just because that person technically fits the definition of nonbinarity or abinarity doesn't mean they should feel obligated to use those terms - they are removed from the categories they would normally be forced into that would correspond with their gender. As for myself: I'm a transgender man but I reject βtransmasculineβ as an identifier. I am not transmasculine even though the general consensus supports that trans men automatically fall under that category. My transgender identity - my masculinity - is maverine-in-nature, which is why I call myself transmaverine instead.
Disidentification is what makes maverinity not feminine, not masculine, not neutral, and not genderless. It is defined, in this context, by what it is not. It establishes itself as a quality that cannot be forced into any one of these categories and is often not comparable to such. It is removed from specific identifying categories and is, instead, within its own category. Disidentification does not start and end with breaking expectations of specific genderedness, but extends to the idea that maverinity by default and on its own cannot be categorized using conventional means.
It's important to note that maverinity doesnβt just exist as a way to transform or transcend gender conventionality. It is very much outside of existing genders and of any comparison to such and because of this, it doesn't have to use midbinarity to establish itself nor does it need to even be compared to abinarity. When someone is maverine, that more than likely means they have an outherine identity with no proximity to the binary or binary-related concepts. There are plenty of singular maverine genders and specific maverine qualities that are simply based on oneβs personal belief of their own gender that canβt be compared to any other gender. The variability of the maverine quality is why it works so well for so many people. Recontextualization and disidentification is only one fraction of how that quality presents itself.

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.

maverinity is a very new concept to me (only found out it even is a thing though your post)
I absolutely have no idea what it means, and looking it up confused me more, can you briefly explain it?
hi! so maverinity is defined by "the quality of being maverique".
maverique is a gender coined by @queerascat in 2014. it is defined as "a gender characterized by autonomy and inner conviction regarding a sense of self that is entirely independent of male/masculinity or female/femininity or anything which derives from the two while still being neither without gender nor a neutral gender."
tldr; maverique is a gender completely on its own. not masc, not fem, not neutral or genderless. nothing relating to the binary. it's similar to aporagender, if you've heard of it.
some good blogs that post about maverinity / maverique stuff:
@demimaverique
@themaveriqueagenda
@the-delta-quadrant
feel free to comment more if you find them, and feel free to ask any questions you may have abt maverinity / maverique!!

My weird gender pet peeve is being a trans guy but automatically being categorized as transmasculine. I wish that we could reestablish trans- labels and not put trans man under transmasc and trans woman under transfem. This would help emphasize the fact that trans people can be transfem, transmasc, transneutral, transmav, etc. without having to be any specific gender.
I'm a trans guy but I'm transmav. I never considered myself transmasculine at any point in my transition, even early on when I thought I was a strictly binary masculine man.

Trans Flags
I made a post with 4 striped trans flags a while ago, but I wanted to revisit it with some new edits/flags.
(Not all of these are mine, I just like having everything together as a set. I'll also be splitting them into sections, since there are a lot of flags.)
βββββββββββ¦ββββββββββ
transmasculine/transmasc β
transfeminine/transfem β
transnonbine/transenbine/transnbine/transnonbinarine
(Note: nonbine, enbine, nbine, and nonbinarine are words for nonbinary gender quality, nonbinary versions of masculine, feminine, etc. The first 3 I came up with, and nonbinarine comes from here.)
β¦ All these flags follow these trans flag formats. The white and grey black stripes are the same for all of them, and the only thing that changes are the center 2 stripes, for the respective gender qualities.
The transmasc and transfem flags are the same as their originals.
Transnonbine was made by me. I used the yellow and purple stripes from the nonbinary flag.
βββββββββββ¦ββββββββββ
transandrogynous β
transgenderless β
transneutral/transneu
Transandrogynous is just a slight colour edit of the original. (I changed the bottom stripe to grey and adjusted the purples.)
Transgenderless is the same as the original.
For transneutral I chose green, as that's a common colour for neutrality. So it's like this variant of transneu.
βββββββββββ¦ββββββββββ
transmaverine/transmav β
transxenine/transxen β
transbine/transbinarine
(Note: bine/binarine is binary gender quality. Binarine comes from here, but I came up with bine follow the same naming convention as nbine.)
Transmav is pretty much the same as the original, though I changed the yellow and orange to be slightly darker, for more contrast.
Transxenine is quite different from the original. Instead of copper colours, I used a light purple blue colour scheme, just because I felt those colours were fitting.
Transbine uses the colours from this binarine flag. (I chose the lighter colours so it wouldn't look too similar to the transmascfem flag.)
βββββββββββ¦ββββββββββ
transmidbine/transmidbinarine β
transabine/transabinarine β
transatrine/transatrinarine
(Note: midbine/midbinarine is midbinary gender quality, abine/abinarine is abinary gender quality, and atrine/atrinarine is atrinary gender quality. I came up with midbine/abine/atrine following the naming format of nbine, and derived atrinarine from midbinarine and abinarine (which weren't made by me).)
Transmidbine, transabine, and transatrine all use the colours from my alt midbinary/abinary/atrinary flags. Besides this transabinarine flag, which uses a different format, I don't think flags for these exist, so they're pretty much new designs.
βββββββββββ¦ββββββββββ
transaporine β
transoutherine
Transaporine is fairly different from its original. Instead of using bright red orange, I used the colours from this aporine flag.
Transoutherine is also kind of different from its original, mainly it's the colour configuration. I used this outherine flag as reference.
βββββββββββ¦ββββββββββ
From here on are combos of the above flags/terms :D
transnbinemasc β
transandrogynousmasc β
transgenderlessmasc
(Note: transandrogynousmasc is also called transandromasc. The wiki page lists transandromasc as both transandrogynous and transmasculine, so I assume andro is supposed to be a shortening of androgynous. However shortening it like that just means masculine, so I use androgynous instead so it's clearer.)
Transnbinemasc is a mix of the blues, yellow, and purple from the transmasc and transnbine flags.
Transandrogynousmasc is bluish purple, as a combo of the blues of transmasc and purples of transandrogynous. Same idea as the original, though I used slightly different colours.
Transgenderlessmasc is just greyish blue, as a combo of the grey from transgenderless and blue from transmasc.
(I don't think transnbinemasc and transgenderlessmasc have been made before, so those are new flags.)
βββββββββββ¦ββββββββββ
transneumasc β
transmavmasc β
transxenmasc
Transneumasc is just a edit of the original flag. (The colours are slightly lighter.)
Transmavmasc uses orange yellow from the transmav flag, and a adjusted blue from the transmasc flag.
Transxenmasc uses the purple from transxen, and the light blue from transmasc.
(I haven't found transmavmasc and transxenmasc before, so these are new flags too.)
βββββββββββ¦ββββββββββ
transnbinefem β
transandrogynousfem β
transgenderlessfem
(Note: same as the one about transandromasc, this one is also called transandrofem.)
For transnbinefem is a mix of the pinks, yellow, and purple from the transfem and transnbine flags.
Transandrogynousfem is a lot like the original, I just used slightly different colours.
Transgenderlessfem just uses a greyish pink, as a combo of the greys of transgenderless and pinks of transfem.
(Transnbinefem and transgenderlessfem are also new flags, as far as I'm aware, I wouldn't be surprised if similar flags have been made before, though perhaps just not in this format.)
βββββββββββ¦ββββββββββ
transneufem β
transmavfem β
transxenfem
Transneufem is based off of my transneumasc flag, I chose a light peachy colour for it. The original is pretty different, it uses a bright red instead.
Transmavfem uses the same orange yellow from transmav, and the dark pink from transfem (which I adjusted the hue of, so it would match better with the orange).
Transxenfem uses the same light purple from transxen, and the light pink from transfem.
(Last note about this, but I transmavfem and transxenfem should be new too.)
βββββββββββ¦ββββββββββ
transmascfem/transfemasc
Transmascfem flags have been made before, but not in this 4 stripe format (that I know of). I chose the dark pink from transfem, and the light blue from transmasc.
βββββββββββ¦ββββββββββ
There's also transoutherinemasc and transoutherinefem flags in the same 4 stripe style. I didn't make any though, since I couldn't figure out how to make it look. It's the same reason why I skipped out on making combos with transbine, transmidbine, transabine, transatrine, and transaporine, I just couldn't figure out a good design.
βββββββββββ¦ββββββββββ
I'll also note about the names, there's a lot of possible names for these terms, I didn't list all of them because there's a lot. So feel free to use these flags for alt terms, or come up with your own terms (as long as they mean the same thing).
β¦
Haha I typed a lot, I guess it's a kind of a masterpost / compilation post with all these links, I think it's nice to have everything together in a matching set like this anyways.

Transmaverine, even though I'm a transgender man. I find it ironic that there aren't a lot of transmavs out there, given that maverinity's key distinction is gender autonomy and personal inner conviction of gender.
Tried to be as inclusive with my language as possible, sorry if I failed to do so
If multiple apply select the one that applies most, unless they apply in same strength / amount

weird flag suggestion question, but: transmav transmasc, masc transmav, and maverine transmasc? mainly all three of them for me but
Top: transmasc transmac Middle: masc transmav (two versions) Bottom: maverine transmasc
I personally like the four-stripe trans flag format, so I used that a lot. Let me know if I should use different flags for these! - ππ

honestly, masculinity and femininity are already highly subjective, and so is maverinity and everything else. for example, i'm always presenting maverine, no matter if i'm wearing a dress and dangly earrings or a big hoodie, no matter if people look at me from the outside and think something about me is "feminine" or "masculine". i refuse to ever call myself or my presentation masculine or feminine no matter what some norms say.
but i also know that how people see us is important, and that's the hard part. anything that's not either conventionally feminine or masculine is highly subjective, even for outside observers. even when i dress in a way that most people wouldn't see as overly masculine or overly feminine, most people would still put me in one box or another because they've been taught to put everyone in a binary. it can literally be as simple as "everyone i know who wears those kind of trousers is a man, so this person must be a man" or "most people i know who wear rings are women, so this person is probably a woman". even if lots of people couldn't place us, it's pretty much impossible to nail it with everyone.
and then there's also the problem what you said, that there's no "look" associated with maveriques (which is probably for the better, tbh). in terms of presentation, people only really know (or think they do) what masculinity, femininity, androgyny & maybe neutrality/ungenderedness look like.
most people couldn't even tell apart androgyny (a blend of masculinity & femininity) from neutrality/ungenderedness (the absence of anything that could be easily gendered as masculine or feminine), so either of those would be a good bet (and you can call it maverine, because again, subjective.
if what's considered androgyny has too many masculine or feminine elements for your liking, there are two options: if you don't want to be bold, incorporate as many elements that can't easily be put into masculine or feminine categories because they are quite literally neutral. clothes that don't fit too tight but not too loose, hair that's not too short and not too long etc. and if you do want to be bold about it, present in a way that's so out there that it's essentially almost too alien to be gendered. for me personally, my name and neopronouns are part of that, as well as some of the space themed clothing i have. it's convenient that i'm a trekkie because in certain trek related clothing i feel like people primarily see me as "geek" than anything gendered.
(and i want to be gendered, gendered as maverique, but let's be honest, that's unfortunately not gonna happen. unfortunately when it comes to outside perspective, we have to settle for androgyny or neutrality and being overall confusing.)
if you're not primarily worried about outside perspectives, just fuck around and find out what gives you maverine gender euphoria, what affirms your maverinity, what makes you look at yourself and go "this is so gender". i've also found that because maverinity doesn't really exist in mainstream society at all that this feeling is more subtle, like "this is so me".
maverinity doesn't have a look, but at the same time it's useful to remind yourself that masculinity and femininity also don't really have looks: more often than not those terms are just imposed on certain objects or people because binaries are normalised. but i have seen lots of people who consider skirts and dresses and nail varnish part of their masculine gender presentation and people who consider ties and suits part of their feminine gender presentation, so maverinity can look like anything.
at the end of the day, maverine presentation is what makes you feel like you.
Question For Maveriques (And Others)
So I find that when my gender is maverique, or leaning towards that direction, I have the urge to present that way, but I have a very difficult time imagining what a maverine gender presentation would even look like. It would be a presentation that's not masculine or feminine, but its own thing entirely (and also not genderless or neutral) but I'm not sure what that would look like (and how it would differ from genderless presentation since I'm also genderless.) My question is, what ideas do you have about what a maverine presentation might look like? Cause I'm struggling here.

4, 5, 6 for the maverique ask game :3
4. do you use any labels alongside maverique? what are they?
gender-wise maverique is my main label. i also use trans, non-binary/enby and xenogender. labels that apply to me and are in my hoard that i only sometimes use are transmav(erine), ftx/ftmv, multigender/polygender/bigender, genderfluid/flux, genderfat, various xenogenders and some disableic genders.
5. i'd usually just say i'm neither male nor female. i know this could also mean agender or neutrois or other genders but cis people at least probably won't understand the difference. otherwise i might say that i'm neither male nor female but have a gender, or i'll say that if male is over here and female is over there, my gender is somewhere in space.
6. sunsets and sunrises, possibly reflected some body of water.
