Gender Systems

What are Gender Systems?

Gender systems are a structure within a community or society that serves to define genders, gender roles, and how those interact and generally define people's behaviors within said society or community. Typical societal gender systems include a masculine and/or male and feminine and/or female role, with many also including either a both or neither role (some also include both). The most commonly talked about gender system would be the Western Binary, which is made up of man and woman, which are respectively connected to masculinity/malehood and femininity/femalehood.

MOGAI Gender Systems

Basic Definition

A general definition of gender systems within MOGAI is "to define gender identity, alignment, or presentation. These are usually non-binary genders or xenogenders. Systems usually have an aesthetic or theme that it follows."1

Expanded Definition

Within the MOGAI community, gender systems generally work somewhat differently than gender systems outside of MOGAI. Rather than defining the typical male and/or masculine female and/or feminine, and occasional both and/or neither, and gender roles, they're generally made up of genders related to similar things or connected by a central theme, without masculinity, femininity, etc. being main elements. If those are part of the systems in any way, there's generally something else involved as well, rather than the genders solely being related to typical gender roles and aspects.
There are some outliers to that, such as the Galactian Alignment System, Alloy Alignment System and a few others. These outliers are primarily made up of masculine, feminine, male, female, etc. with some having an added xenic element and xenic genders. Within MOGAI, gender systems can also be called gender families or gender groups.

Coric-Comfic Alliance System

Table of Contents

Intro

The Coric-Comfic Alliance System also known as the CCAS is a system of various types of genders created to coin a version of every term that uses coric or comfic that uses the opposite suffix. It's unknown how similar the definitions of the new terms will be to the old ones.

It's described by the coiner as "a system of genders/personal goal to have every coric and comfic suffixed term have a same-named equivalent of the other suffix!"1

History

The Coric-Comfic Alliance System was coined on March 14, 2022, by Tumblr user Coric-Creation/Comfic-Coining.2

Cosmoic Alignments

Intro

The Cosmoic Alignments are a system of Astronogenders related to different things in space.

It's described by the coiner as "a system of space-themed xenic alignments that I’m calling the Cosmoic Alignments. I wanted to keep them completely independent of male, female, masc, and fem as well as give them a sort of abstract feel. I’ll list the alignments below, and then provide their flags in a Read More.

I want to also note that these can be used by any human or nonhuman, whether they have no gender or many genders. They also don’t have to be xenogender in order to identify with these."1

History

The Cosmoic Alignments were coined on July 23, 2020,2 by now deleted Tumblr user The-Gender-Collector-Emself, with all of its genders that ey coined being coined in that post.3

The only genders not coined in that post were coined by Tumblr user Neopronouns on January 11, 20214 and Tumblr user Gender-Inc on February 25, 2021.5

Flags

All but two of the original flags were created by now deleted Tumblr user The-Gender-Collector-Emself on the date of the system's coining. The only two flags that weren't created then were the Comet-Aligned and Orbit-Aligned flags, which were created by those genders' coiners.67

Almost every flag for a gender within the system follows the same format of four horizontal stripes, often in a gradient, and a solid-colored circle in the middle of the flag. The only exception to this format would be the Comet-Aligned flag.

Redesigns

All of the flags made for the original set of genders were redesigned across two posts by Tumblr user Neopronouns.89 These redesigns follow a different format from the system's other flags, with the flags having five horizontal stripes, often lightening or darkening towards the middle or in a gradient, and a black circle in the middle with a symbol on it.

This was spurred on by an ask from Tumblr user Nerdpiggy, requesting a redesign of the Nebula-Aligned flag.10 Comet-Aligned was coined alongside these redesigns to have the two posts have an equal number of flags/terms in each post and give the system a round number of genders (at the time).11 Comet-Aligned being coined alongside these redesigns is the reason that its flag doesn't follow the same format as the other flags.

There was some 'controversy' around the redesigning of the flags, started by and ending with only one anon who was likely just The-Gender-Collector-Emself/Alex. For more information, see Cosmoic Alignments Redesign 'Controversy'

Intro

The Dianetics System is a system of various types of genders related to Dianetics and things associated with Dianetics in some way. This gender system branches off into a number of subsystems and minisystems. It is one of the most 'complex' gender systems within the MOGAI community.

It's described by the coiner as "The Dianetics System is a system of genders (mostly Religigenders) that are related to Dianetics, parts of the belief system, and other stuff related to Dianetics in some way; some of the things start to get a little distant from just Dianetics and are closer to just L. Ron Hubbard in general"1

History

The Dianetics System was coined on June 3, 2021, by Tumblr user Page-2-IDS, with all but one of its current subsystems and minisystems being coined within the same post.2

On September 18, 2021,3 Page-2-IDs made another post coining a minisystem under the Literature Subsystem, being related specifically to the book Dianetics: the Modern Science of Mental Health.4

Since its creation, the system has had terms added to it fairly consistently, with no sign of stopping.

Flags

As of July 7, 2021, all but two of the flags5 for genders within the Dianetics System have followed the same format: seven vertical stripes with colors darkening towards the middle, often having the two sides mirror each other.

However, on July 7, 2021,6 Page-2-IDs made a post about possibly changing up the flag format, saying "I know I’ve been using the same flag format for all of my Dianetics System (+ subsystem and minisystem) genders, but I’ve honestly been thinking of (maybe) breaking away from it. I’m not making any promises, just because I could calm down and decide this was a stupid idea, but I wanted to post this incase [sic] I do go through with it.

It’s not that I’m running out of flag ideas or anything, there are practically infinite combinations you can do and still keep the 7 vertical stripe [sic], darker in the middle and lighter at the edges format, I just thought I might want to shake it up in the future."7

Parts of the System

The Dianetics System has a number of subsystems and minisystems, dividing some of the genders into more specific groups, like genders related to Auditing, or genders related to Scientology.8 There's also a main part to the system, with the primary connecting thread being genders related to Dianetics in its most basic form, rather than to certain parts of it or to religions that practice it.
