Javelaine
Javelaine is a gender identity in which one’s masculinity and femininity are inherently tied to their queerness and vice versa. Both shape and complete each other. It may refer to presentation, gender, or any other form of masculinity and femininity. One does not need to be considered fully masculine and/or feminine to use it. It may be considered a mix between tridaine and archaine.
The term javelaine comes from javelins, which could be seen as a cross between an arrow and a trident, seeing as it can be used as a ranged weapon like a bow and arrow and is spearlike, like a trident.[1]
