- As if certain things affect their prominent gender. This could range from certain activities they do, to hobbies, or anything else.
- As if some of their multiple yet static genders are ‘blurred’ in a sense, or mashed together; however, there is still a distinction between some of their labels.
- Like their multiple gender labels have been ‘squashed’ together but are still able to distinguish their multiple labels.
