==Quotes==
"I don't want to rely on the constant repetition or the constant renaming of 'I'm woman, woman, woman' and 'I'm real, real, real' to gain access to the greater – or at least the larger – gender binary framework. I don’t feel 'found' or 'seen' there; in truth, looking back, I never have. I always felt like an outsider-outside, until 'trans' came along and allowed me the capacity of real feeling and touch. I cannot find (fuck knows, I've really tried) my value within the word 'woman'. It just isn’t happening, and now it’s mine to own it still makes no difference. I find my meaning and my value – erotic, spiritual, conceptual, actual and economic – in the word 'trans'."
"Even after surgery, I didn't feel anymore like a woman than I ever felt like a man, and my genitals really just always felt like they were trans genitals and they weren't particularly tied down to any gender. So for me, it was really important to honour my body and to do that, I had to give away words – I had to give away the word woman."
"I've tried relentlessly to find my place within the binary gender structure. But it's not happening. It's just not happening. [...] I want only to be known as trans; not woman, not man."Roche, Juno. Trans Power: Own Your Gender, Jessica Kingsley Publishers, 2019. ISBN: 9781787750203

==Quotes==
"Like, do I want to transition genders? No. But have my whole life have I only identified with the female perspective and only looked up to the female perspective and worshiped the female perspective? Yes. And has my mother called me "she" half of my life by accident? Yes — and I take that as the greatest compliment ever. I want to be able to live in this space where I love my femininity and don't need to put rules on it. For people who do want to live on the binary, whether they are cisgender or transgender, that is fucking amazing. There are a lot of us who live in this non-binary world, and I think that's definitely the next thing to try to help the planet understand."
"You know what's so funny with me and pronouns? When I've been called, 'The Behind the Scenes King of Pop,' that creeps me out. I am definitely Queen, I'm not a King. I have two dogs I love very much; when people call me their father, or their dad, that creeps me the fuck out. Bro, man, that shit is weird. He/him/his does not freak me out. Man, King, bro, dude, dad do."

Juxera

Juxera is defined as a gender similar to female, but separate and entirely on its own. It is one gender, as opposed to demigirl, which is often used to describe a combination of genders (for example, agender and female, or partially female and partially another gender). Juxera individuals don't partially identify with other genders, as juxera is a gender in and of itself.
Juxera is also a base gender within the Circa Binary
Because juxera is a whole gender, juxera individuals may also identify as third gender. Juxera is meant to be used as an adjective (ex. "I am Juxera", not "I am a Juxera").
In the 2020 Gender Census, 13 respondents (0.05%) were juxera.GC2020 Public Copy, 1 November 2020 Archived on 17 July 2023
== Origin ==
The term and original flag was coined by Tumblr user wulfgendur, also known as Ren (he/him, xe/xem), who also coined the term proxvir, a "near-male" counterpart gender to juxera.
The term "juxera" was created from the Latin adverb for "near", juxta, and the feminine Latin noun era.

==Quotes==
"Even though as a kid I often wanted to be a boy, and wished that I could reincarnate as a boy in my next life, I never really knew it was an option, or understood the terms 'transgender' and 'nonbinary.' It wasn’t until I was watching Degrassi: The Next Generation that the character Adam explained his identity in a way that made a major lightbulb go off in my head. I began to question my gender identity, and a year or so later, I began my social and physical transition."

==Quotes==
"Gender is made up of body, mind, and time; mastering all three is a challenge."Instagram post, 29 December 2018
"Not all trans people agree with this nonbinary thing. There are some who do and there are some who don’t. I don’t speak for all transsexuals or all transgender people. Certainly I honor anybody who wants to be a man and do the work of becoming a man. I honor anyone who mindfully becomes a woman. That’s cool. But, I really don’t get how there’s only two choices. There’s no two of anything else in the entire universe; why should there only be two genders? I don’t get it."

==Quotes==
"I use she as my preferred pronoun. In my experience, she encompasses my gender and my sexuality, which are very different. I Identify as a genderqueer person, and simultaneously as a gay woman and I'm ok with those being at odds with each other sometimes."
"I like being a woman sometimes. I would say 49 percent of the time I love my titties. But I'm not fully a woman. I'm somebody who falls center on the gender spectrum, and it changes day to day. It's just not in me to decide."
"My identities might have once thought to be contradictory but what I love about the time we are living in now is that you can express gender queerness, that you're gay, that you're a lesbian, a girl dating girls. Because I am a girl who dates girls and I have been for a long time. So I am a lesbian. But sometimes I feel like a gay man, you know? Just in my spirit. I'm learning how to be comfortable in between. If you can harness that and feel comfortable in the in-between, it can be freeing and fun. I show it in my art. It's a great perspective to have and I'm happy to have it."
"I've always been kind of a genderqueer person. It's something I kind of came into later 'cause I didn't really think about it as an identity as much as the way it had to do with the people I loved and the way I dressed…I like that I can ride that line on the periphery of femininity. I don't always have to be an active participant. I think that's really freeing."

Kye Rowan

Kye Rowan is a vexillographer who created the nonbinary Pride flag in 2014.
== Work ==
Kye Rowan created the Nonbinary Pride Flag in 2014 to represent people with genders beyond the male/female binary. The yellow stripe represents people outside the cisgender binary. The white stripe represents people with multiple genders. The purple stripe represents people who identify as a blend of male and female. The black stripe represents agender people, who feel they do not have a gender .
The flag was not intended to replace the genderqueer flag (which was created by Marilyn Roxie in 2011), but to be flown alongside it, and was intended to represent people who did not feel adequately represented by the Genderqueer flag.
The design of both the genderqueer flag and the nonbinary flag include the colour lavender (purple) in reference to LGBTQ+ history . The word Lavender had long been used to refer to the gay community. A 1935 dictionary of slang included the phrase "a streak of lavender" meaning a person who was regarded as effeminate. A different-gender marriage where both parties were assumed to be gay was called a lavender marriage. The Lavender Scare was a moral panic in the mid-20th century, where LGBT+ people were dismissed en masse from their jobs with the United States government. Expressions used by the LGBT+ community are sometimes referred to as Lavender linguistics (although some of these expressions were derived from African American Vernacular English, or AAVE).

Laurie Penny

Laurie Penny is an English journalist, columnist and author. She came out in 2015 as a genderqueer woman, using the pronouns she/her or they/them.
==Quotes==
"I choose 'genderqueer woman' to signal that I acknowledge my unwilling membership in the socially imposed sex class of 'woman.' Politically female, personally genderqueer. It works for me."Twitter thread, 22 Sept 2016
"I am a woman, politically, because that's how people see me and that's how the state treats me. And sometimes I'm also a boy. Gender is something I perform, when I put on my binder or paint my nails. When I walk down the street. When I talk to my boss. When I kiss my partner in their makeup and high heels.
I don't want to see a world without gender. I want to see a world where gender is not oppressive or enforced, where there are as many ways to express and perform and relate to your own identity as there are people on Earth. I want a world where gender is not painful, but joyful.
But until then, we've got this one. And for as long as we all have to navigate a gender binary that’s fundamentally broken and a sex class system that seeks to break us, I'm happy to be a gender traitor."
