Gender Spectrum - Tumblr Posts

Last night I started thinking what if we stop using words like femme and masc and girl and boy.

What if we just said colors?

Like "femme" would be blue and "masc" would be red and neutral(nonbinary) would be yellow

And if you're fluid you can use purple

I made sure not to put pink in the mix to avoid baby shower stuff

So in my case, instead of saying I am a girl I would say that I am cerulean

I was thinking for purple-genderfuid like

And someone who is ultra manly as we would say now would instead be called crimson or scarlet or maroon or something

If someone said fuschia it would mean they're gender fluid but usually identify more as a boy. Something like violet would mean they usually identify as more of a girl.

I'm just using femme masc and girl boy as a way to explain the spectrum but the goal is that thise terms be eradicated

This will take a good deal of time though to get used to though.

I'm also concerned now with the affect it will have on art, clothing, flags, and any number or things

Like a tree is green so does that mean that tree is in between feminine and androgynous

No it's just a tree

Pr some art teacher will say 'this artist used chartreuse as a representation of themselves" which may not be the case

Chartreuse can just be a cool color

I thought this would a cool way to dismantle the way gender relates to sex because colors are on a spectrum and so is gender <3.

ANDRO

In between. In between

Feminine. Masculine

-------------Gender fluidity------------

It's kind if like a semi circle in my head but this is open to change

Shoutout to anyone with a complicated relationship to their gender/sexuality. The human experience is messy and hard to define. Sometimes it just doesn't make fucking sense. And that's okay. Humans were never meant to "make sense". Our brains are too big and weird for that.

Am I the only one who just gets excited when someone uses they/them pronouns for me? I go by she/they pronouns and it’s typical for people to use she/her pronouns with me, which I’m fine with. But my queer friends use they/them pronouns when referring to me and when I see them use those for me, I get all happy and bouncy. I can’t explain it. 😂
