Description

Maverique is a gender characterized by autonomy and inner conviction** regarding a sense of self that is entirely independent of male/masculinity, female/femininity or anything which derives from the two while still being neither without gender nor of a neutral gender.

In other words, maveriques are not:

  • male/masculine, female/feminine or anything related to these two genders
  • without a gender
  • apathetic about gender
  • gender neutral

Maveriques share:

  • a sense of gender that is independent of all else (autonomous)— as if in a category all of its own without outside influence.
  • a distinct and firm sense of gender (conviction).

Flag colors explained:
"hello! this is the flag that i’ve designed for maverique, the gender i’ve recently coined.

the “short & sweet” explanation of the colors is:

  • yellow (#fff344): primary/elementary* gender; non-binary gender
  • white (#ffffff): autonomy; independence
  • orange (#f49622): inner conviction; maverick 

Yellow is a primary color (see: subtractive color / CMYK), meaning that it isn’t obtainable from combining any other colors and thus is entirely independent from the other primary colors, cyan (blue) and magenta (pink). *i feel that this is the perfect analogy for maverique’s relationship to male/masculinity and female/femininity. yellow is also often associated with non-binary gender.

White represents autonomy or independence from the gender binary and even from the spectrum of colors (genders) created by combinations of cyan/blue (male/masculinity) and magenta/pink (female/femininity). white represents the figurative blank gender slate upon which maverique is based.

Orange represents the deep, burning inner conviction that a maverique feels in regards to their own gender. it also represents the unorthodox and individualistic nature of mavericks, upon which this gender is based.

:/ Hmmm... starting to wonder if maybe this term describes me better than Neutrois... I've been using that since it really feels "neutral" of femininity or masculinity and like it's own thing, but I'm often annoyed by having to additionally clarify that I'm not genderless/don't care about which terms people use just because I say "Neutrois" (it has always felt weird to me that people associate neutrality with non-existence XD).
