Fox refers to a non-binary or abinary person who presents themselves outside the gender binary, and rejects binary concepts of gender presentation.
History
The term and it's flag were coined by Tumblr user nonbinary-culture on July 20th, 2018. The flag stripe meanings are as follows:
- Green represents NB responses to and variations on cultural concepts of androgyny, as interpreted and queered by nonbinary individuals, as well as NB fluidity and genderfucking; it also represents the firm assertion that any androgyny presented by a fox is self-asserted and self-affirming and not related to being “read” as “androgynous”. Green represents rejection of the pressure to present to binary eyes.
- Gold represents NB identity itself.
- Orange represents NB rebellion, transformation, and independence, independent of any notions of androgyny.[1]
The alternate fox flag was created by Tumblr user prideisforeveryonebutcops on an unknown date.[2]
