Lately, I felt a "spike" in my gender identity. It used to be so precise, but suddenly, it became vague. Don't tell me I'm genderspike, because even if I'm suddenly experiencing a strange gender identity, I don't know if it's brief and I go back to being omnine as usual, or if my gender will stay ambigue forever. Genderspike people do know. That's the difference!
It's a big difference for me, so I made a new word to describe it. Gendersurge is a sudden gender very different from what one usually experiences. It's a term for people who don't know if they will go back to their previous gender or identify as the new gender from now on.
I also made a flag for aminsurge. It's a gender that describes people who have a palpable gender until all of a sudden, now. It's the AMIN version of gendersurge, and I'm bringing up that only subset since this time, I'm coining a word because I have to, not because I want to.
The purple stripe in the middle represents the gender I'm suddenly experiencing. Ambigue is purple for me. The surrounding white represents the previous gender, which in my case is a clear gender. I interpret clear genders as white, but if fellow flag designers want to make their gendersurge subset, I recommend they replace the white with the colour they associate their previous gender with. The gradients represent how I sometimes think my gender is a little unclear, but the haze isn't always at an alarming degree. It's when I suddenly completely lose any idea of what my gender is that I become gendersurge, which is why the stripe in the middle stands out from the other stripes.
Sorry if this entire post sounds dramatic or something it's just that I'm going through confusing times. Venting aside, don't hesitate to share your thoughts on this new documented gender identity.
