 * The terminologies that populate the MOGAI umbrella are innumerable, constantly multiplying, and tend to 1) allow for splitting between romantic and sexual attraction, 2) allow for gender modalities beyond cisgender and transgender (ex: centrgender, those who do not identify as cisgender or transgender), 3) allows for stacking of multiple identity modes (ex: a bigender asexual lesbian is an individual that identifies as two genders, does not experience sexual attraction, but does experience romantic attraction and/or affinity toward women), and 4) bases the validity of one’s gender and sexual identity in that individual’s personal experience (meaning, if one identifies as stargender, an individual with an other-wordly or non-human gender, then their identity is valid as it is derived from their feelings).

They are a ‘stargender!’” And, you know, that brings the trolls, and the trolls are like, ‘can you believe these millennial cucks going around calling themselves ‘stargender?’ How am I supposed to take that seriously? What do I tell my kids?’
