Pronounfluid Flag
Pronounfluid Original Flag

Pronounfluid refers to an individual whose pronoun sets change over time, one’s pronouns may change over an ever changing period, could be over a few days or every day or every month, etc.

This falls under the Pronoun Non-Conforming and Multipronominal umbrellas. Their pronouns may change with their gender but isn’t necessarily the case. (See Pronounflux)

One who is Pronounfluid may feel as if they need to be fluid with their pronouns, it might be due to their gender. For example, one who feels as if one day they are a Demigirl and so may use the pronoun set-They/Them, and then another day they feel as if they need to use a Xenogender and so may use a set relating to that xenogender.

They may also be Pronounfluid if they feel their preference changing, this may or may not be linked with Pronounflux, they may feel that the pronouns they have, for instance, They/Them, doesn't work for them at that moment, or doesn't work at all and so use another pronoun set, for instance use Xe/Xem/Xir.
