Etymology
[PT: Etymology]
The etymology of this term is unknown. Neut(gender) was coined by tumblr user Wingsdownmyspine in March 2020. The Neutgender pride flag and an expanded definition were reposted to Beyond-Mogai-Pride-Flags by Mod Fy two days later.
"Neut" is likely an abbreviation of "Neuter" or "Neutral", but this has not been confirmed by the original coiner of the term.
Flag
[PT: Flag]
The original flag was created by the coiner at the same time as the term. This flag consists of four horizontal stripes of the same size. From top to bottom, they are black, grey, white and red. The meaning of the original flag is unknown.
Due to being almost completely identical to the Asocial flag designed two years prior to Neutgender, I took it upon myself to make an alternate flag, which is the main purpose of this post.
This alternate flag consists of six, horizontal stripes of the same size. From top to bottom, the stripes are burgundy, desaturated magenta, light lavender, tan, desaturated green and dark green. Each stripe has the following meanings:
The burgundy stripe represents being Neut.
The magenta stripe represents disconnection from humanity.
The light lavender represents a present sense of gender.
The tan stripe represents the usage of It/Its pronouns (as opposed to They/Them).
The light green stripe represents otherness.
The dark green stripe represents neuterness/neutrality.
The burgundy stripe is a homage to the original flag that used red alongside a monochrome color palette.

Low dysphoric culture is always questioning if you have dysphoria, or just a disconnection with with gender almost all the time
Dysphoric culture is!
Also, disconnect from gender can count as dysphoria. It’s up to you to decide how to label your experiences anon, dysphoria isn’t always “gender distress” and not everyone has it!

You know what? I don't hate my body. I hate the fact that my body defines me as a girl. I like the way I look, I don't want to have to take testosterone or hide my chest to be viewed as something other than a girl. I love my body, I love its shape and everything it can do, I'm strong, fast, and decently beautiful, but everything that I should love about myself is undermined because of the flesh bags on my chest? I HATE THAT SO MUCH.
The idea that I have to cut off parts of me to be viewed by society as masculine is awful, and something that I can't help, shaping the way others view me so intensely, really, really hurts me. I don't want to change me. I just want to be accepted for what I am, and the idea that my chest is getting in the way of that is what makes me hate it so much. I don't hate my chest specifically, but the ideas connected to it. If those ideas vanished, I could live happily and freely without having to alter my body. Without having to bind to be comfortable, without having to deal with never quite feeling connected to my OWN BODY. I should feel safe here.
It isn't fair.

rlly struggling lately to make art, almost feeling a fear surrounding it that of course is directly connected to “internet success” like deep down that kind of thing does not matter does not fulfill my soul etc but of course feels so important for my career.. but how important can it be if it prevents me from doing any real creating or searching exploring experimenting etc… almost like the fear of disappointing others only leads to me disappointing myself. Or whatever. and obviously the answer is to stop looking at instagram lol

Animorphs au where tobias' human morph is a girl instead of a boy due to the Ellimist 'screwing up' ? I think it would be good for Transfemme icon Tobias tbh
I'll be perfectly honest, in my mind overall VERY little would change to the plot for this au, but for the internal character development:
I think this would end up amplifying Tobias' disconnect from humanity even further
He would go through a period of 'i guess i should be mad about being a girl, but i'm not. i don't think i'd even feel like myself in my original body'
Preteen kids are already so easily gender ambiguous that I don't think there would genuinely be much issue for human-morphed Tobias to pass as a boy in public
It's the 90s. Everyone has long hair and as long as you aren't showing your midriff (wearing a crop top and/or low rise jeans), you're basically a boy.
Ultimately I think Tobias would hit a zen about his new gender, and then, find the whole thing funny in a very Tobias kind of way.
People are so obsessed about girl and boy stuff when none of it matters!!!
There could be a lightbulb moment for Tobias re: genderism, nonbinary-ism, trans-ness, etc, but he has much more improtant things to focus on (the war, for one)
Meanwhile I think Rachel would be having a Bigger Issue over Tobias' "gender" change
She would be torn about trying to force Tobias to be a girl now (because now he's a girl!! Obviously!) but also knowing Tobias was a guy, and how does this work???
There would be some very intensive Girl Best Friend moments between Rachel and Tobias where she is figuring out that, yes, she can still have a crush on Tobias even though he's "a girl" now
She convinces herself this is because he used to be a guy, and now he's a hawk, so it's already weird enough that it loops back to being Fine
Some time in the early 00s Marco and Tobias are indulging in anime subs and get to the Sailor Stars in the Sailor Moon anime and Marco would point so quickly at the screen that he punches the computer while he screams "THAT'S YOU!!!!!!!"

Kaeya Alberich: his gender presentation is just flamboyant, whatever looks most out of place but still pretty at the moment. Gender is a performance and he's gonna give it his all because at the end of the day gender's all about presenting, life is a stage and he's the main event.
Albedo: What is gender? Is that, like, a food?
