    '''Boyflux''', also known as '''manflux''' or '''guyflux''', is a gender under the [[genderflux]] umbrella describing someone whos male gender fluctuates in intensity. This typically involves feeling strongly masculine sometimes and weakly masculine at other times. Boyflux individuals can fluctuate from feeling [[agender|completely without gender]] to completely masculine or male. In between those extremes, one may feel [[libramasculine|slightly masculine]], to [[demiboy|half masculine]], to [[paraboy|mostly masculine]]—but not fully—, or any other amount of masculinity. Some individuals may move smoothly between intensities while others may quickly jump between intensities. Boylflux individuals may encompass genders such as [[paraboy]], [[demiboy]], [[Libramasculine]], [[Proxvir]], [[bxy]], [[man]], and many other masculine genders. A boyflux individual may also experience other, non-masculine, genders, but this is not necessarily related to their boyflux identity.

    In the original flag, the three large stripes of blue represent feeling mostly male but also feeling fluctuating intensity of being male. The meanings of the five small stripes are as follows: pink represents female and feminine genders, purple stands for genders between male and female, the green represents genders outside of the binary, the white represents absence of gender ([[agender]] or similar identities), and grey represents unknown or unnamed genders.

    The three large stripes of blue represent varying levels of masculinity. The meanings of the five small stripes are as follows: pink represents female and feminine genders, purple stands for genders between male and female, the green is there for genders outside of the binary, the white for the lack of gender (agenderness or similar identities), and grey for unknown or unnamed genders.


    Jamy123456789's flag, created on December 4, 2020, combines the symbolism of both flags into a more appealing format.
    This is the description of the flag below. The shades of blue represent levels of masculinity. The shades of purple are for femininity, and the white is for other gender identities.


    An alternate flag was created by FANDOM user RezRobin on March 19, 2021. The normal blue represents binary boy, the grayish blue represents partial boyhood, the dark blue represents vague masculinity, the bright cyan represents masculinity in general, the tiny bright green stripes on each side of the main green represent fluctuation, and the green represents genders that aren't exclusively masculine.<ref>https://lgbta.fandom.com/wiki/Boyflux?commentId=4400000000000110762</ref>
