    The gender spark symbol

    Gender sparks are temporary alternations in one's connection/relationship with their gender, whilst the gender itself remains the same.

    Examples

    • A genderfluid individual may feel agender for an extended amount of time and identify that as a neutral spark.
    • A woman may suddenly feel as though their gender is connected to manhood, while still feeling comfortable/at place as a woman, and classify that as a masculine spark.
    • A genderflux individual might go from libragender to hypergender, and identify that change as a spark.

    Clarification information

    • One does not have to describe their experiences with this term. It is there for individuals who feel the term will benefit their identity.
    • Gender sparks do not have to last a specific time in order for it to classify as a spark. That is a personal choice.
    • The experience itself does not count as an LGBTQ+ orientation. Sparks could be felt by anyone, regardless of their identity.
    • Gender sparks were not intended to invalidate transgender/genderquestioning individuals or reduce their relationship with gender down to a 'phase'. Sparks are not alternations in gender, rather alternations in the genders connections.

    Differentiation information

    Different from genderspike: This term does not feature a base gender, nor does it require a base gender in order to be experienced. A woman/fem-aligned individual could experience an intense increase in their connection to womanhood and identify that as a spark. A genderfluid individual could identify as neurtois for longer than expected and classify that as a spark, and so on. Different from sparkgender: Sparkgender is aimed at agender individuals who experience a temporary connection to gender, which then fades back into their original lack of gender. Sparks can be felt in different ways and by different genders - the spark itself is not incorporated into one's gender label.

    History

    The term was coined roughly in early 2021. The user which invented the label goes by "QMCR". No page outside the wiki further explains this label.
