diamond split in half, and then with each of the resulting tringles split into three triangles. Each of the vertices has a gender symbol. Left vertix is a purple star with a plus below, labeled 'Xenogender'. Right vertix is a yellow circle with a closed arrow pointing to the right, labeled 'Aporagender/Abinary'. Top is a blue circle with an open arrow pointing up-right, labeled 'Male'. Bottom is a pink circle with a plus below, labeled 'Female'. In the very centre, between 'Male' and 'Female', is a purple circle with a plus and open arrow above, labeled 'Androgynous'. At the mid-point between 'Xenogender', 'Male', and 'Female' is a black circle labeled 'Agender/Gendernull'. At the mid-point between 'Male', 'Female', and 'Aporagender' is a green circle labeled 'Agender/Genderneutral'. The outside lines have arrows beside them indicating genderfluidity, while the lines going to the two 'Agender' circles have arrows indicating gender-fluctuation.ALT

Made this in 2021, while trying to figure out this gender thing everyone was talking about. Organizing things is very helpful to me.

GENDER DIMENSIONS:

A Model of Gender

Part 1/6

Let’s talk about gender.

You might have heard the phrase ‘gender is a construct.’ Today, we’re going to take that literally. We’re going to construct gender from the ground up.

Starting with nothing. This black circle has nothing in it. Some people have no gender.  This is one of the meanings of ‘agender.’ (We’ll get into the other meaning of agender later.) Another term is ‘gendernull.’ When asked to describe their gender, these people might
say ‘it isn’t there,’ that ‘there’s an empty space where gender is supposed to be,’ or that ‘they don’t have much of that.’

Now let’s add something! We’ll add a white circle, and connect it to the black circle with a line. This dimension adds a sense of gender. It is not a specific type, but it is there! One way to describe having a gender is to say that you’re ‘allogender.’ Usually, it’s assumed that
you have a gender, so this term isn’t super common.
