I’ve been seeing a lot of Nimona stuff but nothing about Nimona being so fucking genderfluid coded. This is the genderfluid experience put in film, you cannot prove me wrong. Please discuss this genderfluid icon with me.
I will die on this hill

Watched Nimona finally, love that lil shit
Yeah so everybody knows this movie is an allegory for people with gender identities that aren't accepted in the greater society, and subsequent suffering those people experience when struggling with that environment. Nobody can look at that movie and say it was just about a monster, come on. There were so many golden lines that could be used word for word about a non-binary or trans person's struggles with their identity and place in the world. The world needs more representation like Nimona 🩷

when people complain about “too much gender-fluid/non-binary/trans rep is with shape shifters” I counter with: every gender-fluid/non-binary/trans person WANTS TO BE A SHAPE SHIFTER

Watching two asian gay guys take down the model minority myth and a transphobic society with their small genderfluid child wasn't on my bingo but damn I'm glad that it exists

So if you've seen Nimona you might know about the trans flag and rainbow flag in the background of a certain scene:
But think i've found two more that i haven't seen anyone talk about:
The mlm flag colours (the stained glass window between Ballister and Ambrosius during the pub scene)
And this one in the background of the same scene as the trans & rainbow flag.
This might be the genderqueer flag? Which also ties in with the scene.
Let me know what you think. Am i looking into this too far??

i absolutely love that they never say nimona turned into a "human" they always say "girl" or "boy" because that makes it sound like the other forms are just more of her genders. like hello today im feeling rhinocerosgender and bal's just like cool just another tuesday then

I just saw Nimona, and the fact that this movie isn’t talked about, was poorly advertised, and is completely overlooked is not surprising but is violently disappointing. This might’ve been the best movie I’ve ever seen. It’s definitely the best movie I’ve seen in the last DECADE. Nimona is such a beautiful, kindred soul. There are many things that differ between me and Nimona, I’m not gender-fluid, our personalities aren’t similar, I’m not as confident and I believe they’re BPD coded (which I do not have), but I am trans. I don’t want to have pieces of me be excluded. I want to fuck up the system. I love how she presents as a girl frequently and still says deadpan “I’m not a girl”. They love who they are unabashedly, (which I aspire to do) and are in such agonizing pain from being rejected and despised that it drives them to self destruction.
“The child that’s unloved by the village will burn it down to feel it’s warmth.” Is on of my favorite quotes and I feel like it encapsulates this character so well. This show handled so many heavy elements in such a perfect way in a shorter medium like a movie and it is so impressive.
I love this movie. I love Nimona.
