I usually get Juxera, but I'm tied with bigender and demigirl/demifemale, genderfluid and androgyne are also high up the list two.

Juxera is a feminine gender that is uniquely non-binary. Proxvir is the masculine version.

Those sound like proscription medications, or edgy deviantart furry OCs

Less of a mouthful than saying feminine nonbinary or masculine nonbinary. Maybe they'll catch on, or not, kinda why I don't use neopronouns, especially when they/them is an option as a native English speaker and I'm fine with she if push came to shove.

I prefer saying demigirl or demiboy for those.

Those terms at least read like real words, and I'll leave no further comment on this.

Gendered language is changing, and ought to, but the realist in me wonders what will stick.

It's like why I think binary trans people have one less thing to worry about than nonbinary trans people, because their genders are already there in most societies to integrate into, while some societies have had "third genders" or what could be considered nonbinary, it is not the culture I live in, as a non-Indigenous white American.

More thorough, more accurate, imo.

But, it really provides spaces for both questioning and intersex people.

Yay, new thread! I'm a little late to the party, but it's Good Friday and I only just came back from church.

I selected 'Other' as gender identity; I'm nonbinary, and the label I identify with most is 'transfemme.'

The test result was juxera, which is a new term to me.

Really bad Latin formation, but to be fair, English in general is very guilty of that too.
I also don't really see how those are meaningfully different than demiboy/demigirl.

Yeah, I probably won't really use it, I feel that demigirl suffices for me, and demiboy would suffice for proxvir.

I really like being called a demigirl. I remember I tried on demiboy, but then also agender at the same time, but I found androgyne at the same time, I was less sure then, but I feel better about myself. I have a solid transition plan and want to make sure my friends and family respect and accept me.

I was about to click "man (cis)" in the poll, but then I remembered how often I think and talk about my gender in kind of ambivalent terms, acknowledging that I'm a man while also feeling like I don't really care about being a man but also not actively wanting to be a woman... so I'm temptatively voting "other".

Not to be stereotypical or anything, but such constructions coming from Tumblr is as expected. Doubly expected is the user coming up with it having a name that's only slightly less stupid.

Juxera is a feminine gender that is uniquely non-binary. Proxvir is the masculine version.

As expected, I got trans woman(Of course, I already was quite aware of that but you know.) or transfeminine. Personally, I never ever use transfeminine to describe myself. I’m a woman, plain and simple, no hunky-dory needed. It may be a useful label for others, but I’ve scarcely ever felt even a speck nonbinary.

I know I know. I mean, I learned demiboy and demigirl from tumblr back in 2017, I looked through and followed so many trans/nb blogs. I stopped using when they banned the porn, NSFW tumblr was the best facet of it. However, I have trans twitter and and trans/nb subreddits to follow.

Transfeminine is generally a term to describe all trans people that were assigned male. It generally means trans women and most AMAB nonbinary people. However, you don't have to feminine or masculine to be nonbinary. I describe myself as transfemme, and never like to call myself a woman. I don't claim that label, except maybe politically, but even that's me being facetious.

I really do not like the label "transfeminine”. I'm a trans woman, but I am not feminine (or masculine either) and do not like labels implying that I am.
