Here's a sneak peek of a species I'm writing for a world of mushrooms and whimsy! Art by Averil. Instagram link in reply!
A cropped image shows a translucent, opalescent girl from the waist down, sitting on the blossom of a dew-covered fuchsia flower. The text "Sneak Peek" is written in white across the bottom of the image.

Let's all say it together.

1) Sex is very complicated, not a simple binary. Not only do we know this in advanced modern science, but countless cultures around the world have realized this.

2) Another person's experience of gender is their own. Only they can name it, and that is not a crime.
Montañez, Amanda. “Beyond XX and XY: The Extraordinary Complexity of Sex Determination.” Scientific American, September 1, 2017. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/beyond-xx-and-xy-the-extraordinary-complexity-of-sex-determination/. A complex chart showing genetic and hormonal interactions that can cause various specific forms of physical sex presentation along a spectrum from well-known XY and XX masculine and feminine variants, to less common genomic patterns and markers resulting in masculine, feminine, and intersex physical presentations. The chart includes how hormonal aspects can cause variances within genotypes, including XX and XY, as well as cases where people develop puberty hormones later in life that may contrast with their perceived sex phenotype at birth. A separate scale at the top of the diagram shows a gender spectrum, representing social and psychological experience separate from genes, hormones, and body shape.

A fantasy world traveler carrying a lantern filled with dancing fire swings through a scene filled with floating islands among the clouds. A creature made of flame circles around the traveler, leaving a flame trail through several falling pages. White text at left reads: "Fen's Guide to Myriad Realms" with the hashtag HumanArt.
