gnc culture is experiencing attraction to other gnc people but having no specific word for it. my gnc-loving ass got so fed up with not having a proper word that I made up an entire new sexuality label and flag because im the kind of person who brings an object lesson to every other one-week school presentation - that's hyperbolic but not by much - and now there is a word for it! parafonian!
Oh that’s beautiful!! i’m asking very politely for you to share the way you got that word and if you have a flag, we’d adore that too 👀👀👀

Writing Sideblog
I go by Byrd for short. I'm an intersex autistic trans man, I use it/he pronouns (unless it's funnier or gayer not to), I'm plural, and I'm over 18. I'm also an ex-mormon. Do not fucking proselytize any fucking religion at me. You will be blocked.
I mostly reblog about random shit, but sometimes I'll make original posts and/or respond with my take on a situation - those should be mostly tagged as #byrd chirps.
My exmo tag is #byrd is an exmo. Sometimes, my moot @twiggyfrogblog sends me birds, sometimes other people do too, so if you're looking for fantastic bird posts, the tags #byrd's birds and #ty twiggy! should take you there. Ask games are tagged #byrd's ask games. Transparent gifs are tagged as both #transparent gif and #transparent gifs.
I also have some new tags - #byrd's silly art, which is for my artwork (currently just me tracing photographs to try and wrap my head around concepts like shapes and shading), and #byrd's writing, which is how I tag any posts about my writing.
I am currently writing a fanfic - I've started to try and tag that as #stt and #byrd's silly little fanfic - once someone finds the fic on AO3, I'll put a link in here.
Some of my posts/reblogs contain triggering/heavy/nsfw topics. I do my best to tag these, but I'm not perfect. Let me know if I miss anything. I don't generally tag swearing, and I do use the word queer as a self-identifier unapologetically.
I have a few sideblogs - some of which are currently inactive. I won't link them here - see if you can find them!
I'm friends with Kea, a writer who distributes his work under a pseudonym, and I have his permission to post his writing. Here is my favorite of his, The Model and The Letter.
Lots of links below the cut, including resources and ask games.

the blorbo blingus (character ask game)
litcherally just ask me anything about my ocs
who am i to you?
toss me a gender, why dontcha
polyamory asks
squishmallow character ask game
In addition, I really enjoy helping to name things like fictional characters and whatnot. I have a method that I use that creates original names with meaning - it's not foolproof, but I've come up with some great names through it.
If you need help naming someone/something, feel free to send in an ask at least giving me a few words you'd like associated with the thing - more information is better, though! There's no cost, either - it's a fun exercise in creativity on my end. These will be tagged as #byrd's name game.

Hi!
What's that in your profile pic?
Thank u for asking! It's the flag for a term I coined, parafonian! As it turns out, a term had already existed, but I prefer mine over GNCsexual as it's much easier to pronounce, and I do prefer the flag I made since it's easier to reproduce.
That said, I'm definitely biased and anybody can use whatever terms they like! I colorpicked it from the GNC flag, though, so that's pretty neat.
Basically, what being parafonian boils down to is being attracted to gender non-conformity. For me, that's masculine women, feminine men, and enben whose vibes are Very Gender™!
Thanks for the ask, by the way!

What is the flag in your profile pic?
It's the parafonian flag, a term I coined myself!
It's essentially just a less clunky term for being gncsexual, but I like the flag that I came up with a bit better than the original one. I am, of course, biased in this.
Basically, I'm attracted to gender-nonconformity: masculine women, feminine men, enben whose vibes are Very Gender, etc.

What the fuck is parafonian.
The link is in my pinned post, but it does happen to be buried in with several other links, so I understand if you had a hard time looking for it.
This is coming across as hostile, but I'll answer it with good-faith assumptions or whatever-the-fuck the term is asgkljlakdgjadkgj
Parafonian is a term I coined referring to attraction to gender nonconformity! So basically feminine men, masculine women, and enben whose vibes are Very Gender!
I just happen to find the breaking of gender norms to be incredibly attractive dshgdsjgfkgk, be they binary or not.

What is "parafonian?" (Genuine question, and I don't really trust Google to give me a satisfactory answer.)
I'm so glad u asked! It's a term I coined a while back in this post here. Basically, it's attraction to gender nonconformity - masculine women, feminine men, and enben whose vibes are Very Gender™! As it turns out, there was already a term and I'm just shit at finding stuff, but the term is GNCsexual - it feels a bit clunkier than parafonian, but I'm not about to police labels lol. It's probably gonna be hard to find online because of how recent it is, but I'm really proud of how it turned out. Lmk if u have any other questions!

your pride flag looks like estonian flag
Tumblr media
estonian flag for context.

Hey, do you mind if I ask what "parafonian" means? I couldn't really find much on a quick google search.
here's the original post! it's a term some friends and i coined to describe attraction to gender non-conformity - v broad and also able to be used in conjunction with other terms.
basically, attraction to masc women, femme men, and enbies whose vibes are very Gender™!

hi! can i ask what parafonian means if youre comfortable? it's not a term i could find online :)
that's probably because I coined it myself! It basically refers to attraction to people who are gender nonconforming, aka gncsexual (although I personally would like parafonian to encompass all types of attraction to gnc people and I prefer it regardless because it's easier to say)

i keep seeing you comment on things and i cant figure out what your pfp is. is it a pride flag? i cant find anything online about it
JSLAKJLKGSDJKLS yeah i keep forgetting that it's literally a microlabel (/flag) that i made up. it's for parafonian/gncsexual.

what is parafonian
I'm so glad you asked! Parafonian, also known as GNCsexual (though parafonian isn't necessarily always sexual), is attraction to gender non-conforming individuals. Here's the post where it originated - masculine women, feminine men, and enben whose vibes are Very Gender™ are the people for me!

okay poll time
Reply if you'd be willing to send an ask to a parafonian-culture-is blog (parafonian being attraction to gnc people), and feel free to throw an example in there if you want
Like if you'd follow a parafonian-culture-is blog
Reblog with the name you'd prefer if you think it should be named GNCsexual-culture-is or GNCsexual-Parafonian-culture-is, or just plain reblog with nothing if you want to see the post reach more people
