Enbysex: Difference between revisions

'''Enbysex''' is an umbrella term for all non-binary [[sex]] identities, and a specific identity indicating someone who identifies outside the sex binary and who either cannot or does not feel the need to specify their identity any further.<ref>https://varsex-pride.tumblr.com/post/640523055457812480/enbysex-an-umbrella-term-for-all-nonbinary-sex</ref>

This was somehow the precursor of [[sexqueer]], [[parsex]]/[[varsex]], [[aldernic]] or [[altersex]]. [[Intersex]] people aren't necessarily enbysex, but only if they see themselves like that.<ref>https://nibi.space/k%C3%B6rper</ref>

Instead of looking at body desires and body feelings detached from [[gender]], however, the concept of a "sex identity" is introduced, i.e. an identification with social notions of body sex, or in relation to it. This includes not only desires to have a certain type of body, but also, for example, which terms are used to describe the aspects of one's own physical body that are associated with immaterial gender, or which view of one's own body feels good.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20190402120120/http://fyeahenbysex.tumblr.com/terms</ref><ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20190407144919/http://fyeahenbysex.tumblr.com/enbysex_101</ref>

== Specific enbysex identities ==

Just like [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] gender, enbysex may encompass sex identities with suffixes that are typically used in common non-binary gender identities, such as a- and multi- from [[agender]] and [[multigender]] in asex and multisex.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20190303232823/http://fyeahenbysex.tumblr.com/enbysex_identities</ref>

* '''Asex:''' Can be defined as an identity label that indicates a lack of sex identity (this is different from those who do not wish to or do not feel they need to define or label their sex identity or differentiate it from their gender identity), or as a sex identity that contains no elements of maleness or femaleness. These descriptions, while similar, have subtle but important differences, though they are each valid interpretations of asex identities.

** '''Greysex''' (graysex, or grAsex): indicating a sex identity that is close to an asex identity but may contain some sexed elements or in some other way does not completely align with an asex identity. Usually considered to be part of the asex umbrella.

* '''Sexflux:''' Having a sex identity which changes between female, male, asex, other sex identities, and combinations of them based on the situation, gender identity, or any number of other factors.

* '''Demifemale:''' Someone who identifies loosely with a female identity, though not completely, and feels they do not fit in the sex binary. Now demimulladic.

* '''Demimale:''' Someone who identifies loosely with a male identity, though not completely, and feels they do not fit in the sex binary. Now demiwolfadic.

* '''Nonfemale:''' Someone who was [[AFAB]] and does not identify as female, but feels no strong connection to any other sex identity.

* '''Nonmale:''' Someone who was [[AMAB]] and does not identify as male, but feels no strong connection to any other sex identies.

* '''Multisex:''' Simultaneously identifying as two or more sex identities.

** '''Bisex:''' simultaneously identifying as two sex identities.

** '''Trisex:''' simultaneously identifying as three sex identities.

** … *there is potentially an infinite number of equally valid multisex identities so I will not be listing them all, but you get the trajectory* …

** '''Pansex:''' simultaneously identifying as all sex identities.
