A-migdari (א-מגדרי) is a label that is simply non-binary, but with a closer tie to Judaism. It was inspired by the six Judaic genders: Zachar, Nekeivah, Ay'lonit, saris, androgynos, and Tumtum. A-migdari is one of the culture-Exclusive Genders, for people who are Jewish and under the nonbinary umbrella.
History
The term was coined by Tumblr user Thatvelvetcowboy in 2021 as a way for non-binary Jews to feel closer to their cultural identity and their gender, or lack thereof. "...I don’t want it to be seen as a new gender, just another word for [non-binary] but more culturally significant and [representative] of Jewish interpretations of gender. [Similar] to the labels we have for the [six] genders of the Talmud, (though those are important to the intersex community and more accurately portrays their relationship with sex) it’s just another option for nonbinary Jews..."
Flag
The flag (Created on 2/28/21 by Thatvelvetcowboy on Tumblr) represents the following: Dark grey- The sky, heaven. Light grey- Same meaning, the sky. White- Similar to the transgender flag, white meaning having a gender that is not binary, or no gender at all. It also represents Judaism's complicated view of gender, and how some interpretations say that even Hashem cannot be defined by humanity's view of gender. Green- The trees of the Garden of Eden, where Adam and Even were placed. Blue- The water of Eden.
An alternative flag (Created on 3/5/21 by 2spoonsofsugar on Tumblr) represents the following: Blue- Tekhelet. White- the Divine/ reference to the Transgender flag. Purple- pomegranates.
