[My Name is Immaterial]

Question about gender topic stuff: Pronouns. There are a ton. Can someone explain what bun/buns/bunself is? Is that when you identify as bunny or a butt?

[Glowcat]

Assuming they..

A) Refrain from sexual intercourse in addition to not liking it.
and B) Don't invent reproductive technology to overcome that hurdle before heading into space

Also the most radical notion of gender is abolishing it into the individual. The gender of you.
Non-binary stuff is easy compared the minefield of conflicting conceptualizations rolling around out there in academic circles.

Usually they identify as bunny. Someone I know does. They're pretty rad honestly.

[penguinofhonor]

I think bunself is a meme.

When I described "Frigid", though, and explained how this is what I am and I'm not interested in anyone, her brain broke.

Is that really the term you use?

So you have your gender:
Male
Female
Male-to-Female Trans
Female-to-Male Trans
None-of-the-above
None

You have your engenderment, how you identify:
Male
Female
None-of-the-above
None

And the result is >(4x6=24) gender/engenderment pairings.

Is this like gender identity timecube? I have no idea what this means.

[Xantalos]

Timecube?

[Orange Wizard]

The whole system is ridiculously overcomplicated and doesn't make sense.

Edit: I'm referring to gender in general here. Physical sex is much more logical. You have man bits, lady bits, or neither. Easy. Nobody can get confused by that. I seriously don't understand why people seem to think gender was a good idea in the first place.

I already use something like this for myself. S'nice and easy, but better yet it's inclusive rather than exclusive.

[~Neri]

I just identify as a weird person who likes foxes and wolves~

Because some men with lady bits want to be referred to as women... Some people with lady bits want to be referred to as men (but it is much rarer)... and some people just flip flop constantly. And usually they want to be referred to that way because in spite of their biology they do not consider themselves one with that sex.

I just realized that that I though a ferret is is in fact a skunk. I don't even know what an official name for skunk in my language is.

I blame American cartoons.

And assuming C) that the children, any way they may be born, would remain asexual also. Otherwise the exercise becomes rather pointless.

I know Skunks are also called Mephits

Which is funny because Mephits in Dungeons and dragons are elemental spirit creatures of pure unadulterated annoyance.

[Darvi]

That mental image of annoyance being a classical element made me crack up.

[My Name is Immaterial]

I find myself really surprised that the people who made "Look at my Horse", "The Badger song" and "Business Cat" made something like this.
