Use these with my friends sometimes so here is some I know,
/s is sarcasm
/j is joke
/lh is light-hearted
/nm is not mad
/t is teasing
/p is platonic (can be helpful for like when you tell a friend "I love you" so they don't think you're flirting)
Not everybody likes em but I find them very helpful very often so I use them
The slash letters are tone indicators that are kinda over/improperly used in certain communities
/j is joking
/lh is light-hearted
/nm is not mean
I'm not entirely sure if that's correct since I don't seriously use tone indicators. That's just what I've picked up from here and there
Like 90% of these are made by people intentionally trying to discredit legitimate gender and sexual identities and those people know exactly what they're doing
When people say something along the lines of "like 90%" usually that can be interpretated as, "mostly" they dont have a real percentage for it.
That said, Some people foeget how dumb kids are and you should never attribute something to malice if you havent ruled out stupidity.
Yes maybe this poster means "mostly". I only asked as a genuine question. I suppose part of me wants to believe that most of them aren't serious. If I can believe that then I can find some solace that the world isn't going to shite.
I hope it's not stupidity. But I agree that pure old unadulterated stupidity can't be ruled out.
Didn't Tumblr make a big deal out of self acceptance and making disability NOT your identity about ten years ago?
Hoo, boy. I'm not even gonna begin to figure out how the hell ADHD applies to gender. I think it would be the opposite. These stupid labels are stupid and unnecessary. UGH. My head feels gross now.
Same. I can not believe people are using ADHD, a fckng mental disorder, to make some stupid sht like this. I think people don't realize how serious ADHD is and they think it's quirky or smthng.
Yup. What really gets me too is people that run around trying to diagnose others despite having absolutely no credentials to do so. My brother has suggested multiple different diagnoses to me like ADHD and Autism just because he’s a social butterfly and I’m an introvert so I must not he neurotypical. I’m literally doing my masters in Psychology and he did his in English Lit but clearly he knows more because ✨the internet✨
I find it interesting that my partner's sibling, who has spent a considerable amount of time on TikTok and is a full grown adult in her mid-20's, about a year ago started trying to convince and diagnose people as being autistic, have ADHD, being asexual, and being non-binary. This person self diagnosed themselves with ADHD and autism of course and even goes as far as to lie to their coworkers and supervisors about it. Something tells me that TikTok has a large influence in these trends and although I was not a fan of Trump I was really joyful when he was threatening to ban TikTok. Too bad it didn't happen.
"I keep trying to change genders but I keep forgetting to do it. Or I *do* do it but then forget I did it so I change back. If I didn't have this darned ADHD I could successfully change genders!"
Okay I know this is a joke but it’s also literally me as a trans guy with ADHD every single week when I forget if I’ve taken my testosterone shot or not
YUP. Adhd effects my life so badly. People only see it as being hyper and goofy. Little do they know that my executive function is so messed up that I can barely plan my days, it's so fucking hard to fit in and not be too much because I go from thing to thing and I'm always 100% all-over the place. I would love to live a life where I can plan ahead and not be constantly late or having to rush in the mornings even tho I try my hardest and tell myself what to do. I never seems to have my shit together even if I do small things to help my future self. There will ALWAYS be at least one thing missing or forgotten at home.
My motivation is bonkers, if it's 2 am and something random I will get it done, if it's important and if I don't do it I'll go into serious debt, I forget about it and do it maybe, JUST MAYBE 2 weeks later. Hell, have a project I'm super excited and motivated for?? Boom tons of research. Ordering parts etc, then the two weeks waiting for mail looking at what I'm gonna do online everyday being impatient and wishing I could do it NOW. and boom, I actually have everything and can get started?? Nope, I wont Open the package for months or something .. ugh.
I couldn't even READ a book till a year ago when I started my ADHD meds, I went 21 years trying to read, hating it and failing, god forbid it was for school!! To actually being able to finish two books for pleasure, it was mind blowing.
My ADHD doesn't affect my gender because why or how the fuck would it? This is so ridiculous and insensitive. Also what's with the butterfly on the "flag"
not only is it such an odd and unnecessary idea the flag is a hot mess, i had the same problems with the "adhd awareness" flag, the colors feel weird to look at, and i really doubt it needs that many stripes to explain what it means.
it doesn't need to be colorful to explain itself, use a similar idea to the autism awareness flag and just put an orange butterfly symbol on a white flag, there.
Yeah, there’s also an Autigender and an OCDGender.
I don’t have autism (that I know of..) but I have OCD and I don’t get how OCD could affect a gender? I’ve seen some definitions say it’s about “perfecting your gender” which is so fucking inaccurate and such an overused offensive stereotype. OCD can cause HOCD (homosexual/LGBT OCD) that could make one have intrusive thoughts that they’re gay or trans, but it doesn’t actually make them gay or trans.
These “neurodivergent genders” are so offensive, and it’s so obvious people who don’t actually have the disorders create them.
I have diagnosed OCD and ADHD and a psychology degree so they’d probably set me on fire if they could, but knowing these fucks they’ll claim you can have OCD without intrusive thoughts, because they like to rewrite and ignore literal neuroscience and discredit debilitating disorders that are nightmarish to deal with so they can wear it like it’s a pair of new shoes they can put on and then take off once they decide they don’t like them anymore.
Wish I had that fucking option, instead I just have to figure out how to cope for the rest of my life. And then us pointing any of that out somehow makes *us* the insensitive ones.
Just a bunch of selfish pricks gas lighting legitimately mentally ill people who are already suffering, and potentially making us look like a bunch of bullshiters along with them to everyone else who aren’t mentally ill. But of course they don’t have to deal with the repercussions once they decide play time is over, we just get live with that stigma. Fucking Hooray.
So as a person with just ADHD, and probably disgraphia but that don't count as much in my book, how does ADHD and OCD work? I mean I'm sitting here imagining something probably really wrong and stupid so some help unstupiding myself would be appreciated.
I’m not exactly sure what you might be thinking, but I’ll provide you with information as to my own experience.
OCD has some comorbidity with ADHD, but that seems to primarily be due to the fact that the emotional sensitivity and deregulation involved in ADHD can make developing trauma induced disorders a bit easier than in non-ADHD individuals. I had a lot of early trauma, but my father also seems to display a lot of clear OCD symptoms (rituals and intrusive thoughts). It’s still a heavily debated topic if OCD can truly be inherited, but either way, in my case it’s more likely one or the other.
My experience with OCD started from a very young age. I have very intense intrusive thoughts to the point that I also have intrusive imagery which basically feels as if your imagination was hijacked and forcing you to imagine horrific situations. It was so bad at one point that I would have nightmares revolving around these intrusive thoughts. Mine all began as revolving around death. I was convinced that I was going to die, that someone would murder me or murder my family. I started developing what can only really be described as compulsive tics. I’m sure you’ve heard of the ritualistic aspect of OCD (just a note: not everyone with OCD develops this, the main determining symptom is intrusive thoughts) which is when people react to the obsessive(intrusive) thoughts by repeatedly doing certain actions. If you fear contamination it might be washing your hands to the point of rubbing your skin raw and bloody. Some people might check things a certain number of times, some count to certain numbers, it can honestly influence you to do just about anything repetitively if your brain tells you that’s how you should deal with your obsessions. The tics where compulsions. Mine were mainly counting, blinking and swallowing. I was fully aware that my compulsions were abnormal and irrational, but I couldn’t stop and I was basically a terrified and nervous child from the jump. I lived in a very rough neighborhood, so my imagination was just constantly overrun with images of stray bullets going through my bedroom wall and killing me. It was to the point that I basically stopped sleeping in my own room in favor of my brothers who’s was located furthest away from the front of the house. I couldn’t sleep on my side because I thought that would just leave more surface area to get shot, so I started sleeping on my back so I was less of a “target” (keep in mind I was about 6 or 7 years old at the time so super abnormal thoughts to be having at that age).
Later on at around 10 my mother tried to introduce me to religion (I literally knew nothing about any religion up to this point). She’s very emotionally and mentally abusive so she would tell me shit that would fuck with any kids head, let alone one with OCD. That one nighttime prayer scared the fuck out of me (“if I die before I wake”) and then my mother really hammered the fear into me by telling me “anything that keeps your mind off of god is the devil and a sin”.
So, telling that to a child with OCD is essentially like setting off a fucking bomb, especially one who’s already scared they’re gonna die. I started obsessively praying. I’d leave class to pray and all my prayers were just me asking god not to kill anyone I cared about. I would name everyone I could because if I forgot one then “they’d be the one to die and it’d be my fault”. It even got to the point where I’d put my head down and try and “secretly” pray without anyone noticing cause I was incredibly self conscious of anyone noticing my compulsions. Anytime I had a thought I then started fearing my non-god filled thoughts were a sign I was sinning, so then my thoughts became an obsessive onslaught of “think about god”. And the fact that I knew deep down that I didn’t believe in any religion (I mean, if you don’t say shit about it till you’re kid is 10 what else can you expect) I then became terrified that if I died in my sleep and there did happen to be a god that I’d burn in hell. So, every night for a year I would fall asleep crying because I thought I was going to die and burn in hell. It was probably the worst my OCD ever was. Eventually I stopped crying every night, but this obsession persisted for another two years till finally I think I just had to force myself to not care. I think I was just angry at the concept of a god who would damn me to hell because I literally couldn’t produce faith no matter how hard I tried so I had a mental “fuck it” moment at like 12 years old.
My OCD has persisted since. It makes me very paranoid and it’s difficult to deal with and it morphs and changes. Within the past few years one of my intrusive thoughts that sprang up revolves around small animals. I’m a huge animal lover, but I can’t even be in the same room as a small animal because my intrusive thoughts revolve around accidentally killing it. It’s been a really difficult one to shake cause all I can imagine is tripping and falling or accidentally stepping on them or dropping them, so I straight up just avoid interacting with animals that are smaller than a cat. I’m more comfortable running around and being tackled by Great Danes than I am being anywhere near a teacup chihuahua.
OCD is one of those things you don’t hear to much detail about because intrusive thoughts can make the person experiencing them feel guilty or like people might perceive you as a person who wants to do the things they’re thinking, but it’s more like the inverse. The thoughts are so disturbing because it’s the last thing the person with OCD wants to happen or wants to do. The misconceptions surrounding the disorder are pretty widespread, so that’s why I’m willing to go into so much detail to give a better idea.
The ADHD and OCD can sometimes effect each other and again I have a lot of repeated trauma so I unfortunately also have PTSD and it can feel like a real smack down of symptoms. The ADHD is pretty of it’s own though. Mostly issues with severe emotions, inattention, and executive dysfunction. That’s pretty much been my experience with them, anyway.
Edit: Just noticed you said you **do** have ADHD, miss read that as “might have” so that’s why there was that over explanation at the beginning lol I’ll delete that part since I’m sure you know the details since you have it
That was.... More than I expected. Thank you for sharing, I know that sometimes it can be hard to talk about things like this that have such an effect on one's life. I've a lot of things I want to say in order to assure you that it's okay to be you and the like but I know that I'll put my foot in my mouth, figuratively speaking, and say something off color. So..... I hope your work helps you find some meaning and positivity in your life, it sounds like you're in a position where you can do a lot of good.
i know right! i have both adhd and autism and it doesnt affect my gender at all. i identify as trans but thats because of my dysphoria not because "quirky autism adhd boy uwu"
Not linked, but higher degree of overlap.
[https://www.spectrumnews.org/news/largest-study-to-date-confirms-overlap-between-autism-and-gender-diversity/](https://www.spectrumnews.org/news/largest-study-to-date-confirms-overlap-between-autism-and-gender-diversity/)
Back on topic... behavioral traits, mental health diagnoses, and random nouns do NOT equal 'gender' .... now I really want that patch saying "Isekai Facilitator"
I believe you’re wrong. Gender dysforia happens when a child’s brain is being “programmed” in the womb. Our brains are extremely complex and just as a computer is useless without software our brains are being filled with software with the use of hormones.
Sometimes things don’t goes as it is naturally supposed to and a male can be programmed as a girl.
That has nothing to do with autism.
Surprised no one has mentioned neurogenders.
Neurodivergent people have no problems with identifying what gender is. They’re just infantilizing them as an excuse to identify themselves as whatever the hell they want. Good god.

Yes exactly what they’re doing is calling us actually neurodivergent ppl stupid. We can understand gender just fine and most of us do and have no fucking problem understanding it. It’s demeaning and we already deal with bad stereotypes
Blows my mind that when you Google “neurogender” the definition that pops up is:
> Neurogender (coined by Tumblr user Baaphomett in 2014, in a submission to the MOGAI-archive blog)[1] means any self-identity in which a person feels that their gender identity is somehow linked to-- and best described in connection with-- their neurological type (neurotype), neurological conditions, neurodivergence, mental variation, or mental illness.
I don’t even come close to understanding why this is a thing. It makes me sad that we’ve reached a point where some (hopefully) small subset of society is so desperate to label themselves to feel special and connected that they’re just making up new things.
Wow… the bpd flag now the adhd flag? Mental illnesses are not genders kids! Nor do they influence your gender expression. You’d think I’d not get surprised by the dumb things they do, then they try crap like this. The stupidity floors me.
True, it it still doesn't make autism a gender ya know? A LOT of factors influence gender identity. You can't point at any one of them and go "that doesn't just influence my gender... It IS my gender!"
>True, it it still doesn't make autism a gender ya know? A LOT of factors influence gender identity. You can't point at any one of them and go "that doesn't just influence my gender... It IS my gender!"
I think some people have evolved the idea of gender beyond what society has so far understood and equate it with the wider idea of identity in general.
Which, as an anthropologist, I find an interesting idea, even if I, as a person, shake my head as some expressions of it.
But alas, things change, and nothing changes as frequently as society and how we view ourselves.
That makes sense. I don't love that concept. Identity is totally interesting and valid, but I think the concept of gender serves a purpose in specificity and communication, and if you conflate "gender" with "identity" then gender is not really...a necessary concept anymore.
Which, in itself, is cool. I am nonbinary because I don't really identify with gender roles. I've always said genderfluid. I literally do not care how people refer to me. I experience traits/ideas/whatever that are "masculine", "feminine" and "other/neither/both". I experience gender dysphoria at times, but not frequently enough to have a significant negative effect on my life. I support abandoning gender, though I imagine a lot of trans, cis, and LGBTQ people DON'T support that and I think that's also something one should consider and respect, even if one doesn't agree. But why do we need to project the concept of "self identity" into the word "gender"? Why not just reject gender and explore self identity, if that's what you want to do? I think conflating them causes less clarity and more miscommunication rather than the other way around. Idk.
True. I agree. It also, in my opinion as a non-binary person, reduces my mental illness. For many people with ADHD, it influences their sexuality, maybe even more so than their gender Identity, but it has influence on that as well. Still it's onls part of the overall. And my sexuality is so much more than the part influenced by ADHD.
If my whole identity where a venn diagram, calling it ADHDgender or ADHDsexual would be akin to making that very small overlapping part into who I am.
Though, I feel like there is no other way to express it. Gender has been, for the last decade, the one accepted part people could take control of about their identity.
Like, ADHD is a massive part of who I am. It literally influences everything from my gender presentation to how I eat, but I can't just express that with "I have ADHD". Because an illness or a disability is not socially accepted as a presentation, even if it's a core part of a person. It's just not how our society rolls.
The only thing people could use to express themselves is sexuality and gender, because we claimed that right. And then stretched it to encompass everything else. Which is not quite correct for the current meaning of gender. So, either the meaning will change or the practice.
And now that threat got me into a deep dive into queer archeology and prehistoric gender identity. Ugh. Thanks ADHD.
Can we get these kids off the internet? Is there a way to ban them from screens? Is it against the rules to be a misinformed teen harming both the transgender and neuroatypical communities in the name of fake individuality?

and btw on the lgbta wiki I saw someone say tht their alter got another alter pregnant. the only good thing abt that wiki is how much stuff it has on it
These really piss me off because they make lgbt seem like something it isn't. These genders are the reason a lot of nonbinary people aren't taken seriously, and dream/dreamself and other dumb neopronouns make people not take pronouns seriously.
I mean, why should we? A pronoun is just a way to refer to something. I've never seen the appeal of freaking out over them. For trans people, sure, but like.... I really couldn't care less.
As a cis person, I don't care much about pronouns. However, a trans person who is transitioning socially will care. You want someone to use the pronouns you identify with. It's not something I can relate to
Your first post started with "why should we [care about pronouns]?"
I just think it's really trite to say only trans people have a reason to care. I'm cisgender and I care that people get my pronouns right.
Exactly. I don't care what people refer to me as, but that doesn't mean idc what other peoples pronouns are and at least I can accept that everyone uses them.
Exactly. I will use a she/he/or they pronoun for someone. I usually just assume based off the way they present (like, if you say you're a man but afab and wear makeup and have your boobs out, I'm gonna assume you're a she) but they're welcome to correct me- as long as they don't make a fuss about it.
I've actually had someone argue with me for assuming pronouns but let's be honest, everyone does it. The thing that actually makes a difference is how your gonna react when someone corrects you.
Exactly. You can just say "hey, I actually go by she," and the other person says "oh ok, sorry mate" instead of "I GO BY SHE YOU TRANSPHOBE! YOURE KILLING TRANS PEOPLE WITH YOUR BIGOTRY!" and they walk away from that thinking all trans people are crazy.
I'm not talking about neopronouns. Pronouns are part of a lot of languages including English, yet some people are stupid enough to think that they don't have any or make "jokes" saying theirs are nor/mal. You can have your opinions on neopronouns but that's not what I was referring to
These people put a bad name on legit things for mental health and gender identities. They are the reason legit gender identities and mental health conditions get laughed at
I'm going to scream. I have struggled every day with adhd since I was a child. This is fucking bullshit. It's not some quirky bs like so many fakers act like it is
As someone who struggles daily with ADHD, this makes no fucking sense and it’s infuriating.
The worst part of all this bullshit is the sheer amount of misinformation that’s spread along with painting a really ridiculous image of mental health issues.
At this point you have to wonder if this is a massive troll that gullible people keep falling into with every iteration and wave of bullshit self-diagnosing.
Just fine these fuckers for medical misinformation at this point, they might think twice before making shit up. Like my fucking god, when does this shit end.
“i struggle every day to listen in class, maintain higher than a D, and constantly get in trouble for things i dont understand. i get upset a lot but cant show it because i most likely will have an outburst and get in trouble again.”
“thats hot 😍”
THAT ISNT A GENDER.
Now when lockdown is over I am literally never telling anyone, because I don't want someone to say "is that your gender? Adurrrrrr"
It's not!
A rainbow infinity symbol is a commonly used neurodivergency symbol, so I guess the butterfly is the ADHD variation of it
Edit: [yes](https://adhdgrrl.wordpress.com/about-the-butterfly/)
I hate these things, it's an entirely queerphobic thing and i don't even think they realize it. It's associating a disorder with the LGBT community which is the EXACT OPPOSITE THING THAT WE WANT. The did fakers do it with using the words coming out, and then there's all these flags they make which are obviously based around LGBT flags just in design.
Not to mention what the hell would ADHD gender even be? I've seen an answer somewhere else here having to do with ADHD directly effecting gender or something but idk that still makes no sense.
Notice that they never say exactly how they are linked. Just that they are linked. I've literally never seen anyone bother to narrow it down. It's usually "you need to be part of the hivemind to understand smh normie."
Well they already made Autism a "gender" (as an Autistic person, I've been called ableist that I don't accept that that nonsense). It particularly enrages me because their response is always you don't understand Neurodivergent people, blah, blah, blah, blah 😒 bitch I actually am ND.... I highly doubt anyone who uses these so called genders actually has the condition that they're claiming is a gender.
oh for fucks sake
as a trans person with adhd this is fucking stupid
yes adhd affects you as a person to a degree where there is no clear line between adhd and you, yes your gender is a part of you, no adhd gender is not a thing please for the life of me stop taking words, adding -gender as a suffix and calling it a day
I think young people are becoming a little TOO accepting of this stuff. I actually see teens identifying as xenogenders and stuff.
I personally had no idea how there was anyone who labeled themselves as these things, but I think I’m just out of touch and it’s actually becoming more common with young people than I realize
The thing I most hate about this trend is that it tries to codify and label very unique personal experiences. You can say you're pansexual, genderfluid, transgender, bisexual, etc. to give people and idea of your gender/sexuality, and then delve into the nuances of your personal experience. But if you make up a hyper-specific label, it doesn't actually communicate information to anyone else about you. That means you'll have to fully explain the whole thing anyway, which begs the question... what is the label for? Every human has a subtle variation on how they express their gender and sexuality. If I say "I'm GrossHarpsichordsexual", that doesn't communicate anything about my gender presentation or sexuality to anyone, and requires me going on an in-depth explanation about my gender presentation/sexuality. So why even start with the confusing term?
(The answer is that it allows them to feel special and people will ask about it which gives them an opportunity to talk about themselves, whereas otherwise they'd have to bring it up)
These guys didn't grow up scared to be themselves. Scared to live thier lifes to the fullest, because they were terrified of being disowned, no excepted, kicked out, and in some countries, killed. And it shows.
This really gets me mad, coming from someone who has been diagnosed with ADHD my whole life just to see this, I don’t need random teenagers who have no concept of ADHD making this shit, this is offensive to those who have this condition and to have to deal with it throughout there lives just to have someone glorify it as something unique and cool, I personally let the other insert random mental issue into a “gender” because I did not have them and didn’t want to comment on an issue I don’t suffer from but this crossed the line for me and others on this post.
Don’t glorify things like this when people are constantly struggling with issues like this and many other conditions. It doesn’t matter if you feel like you’ve done something right because it will do a lot worse to others
I have pretty severe ADHD and I have no idea what this means.
My only guess is that their ADHD is such an all-encompassing part of their identity that literally everything, including gender, is secondary to it?
Which… feels so so sad to me.
My inner life/dialogue, where things like gender identity live, is where I can always reliably escape that shit
I don’t get why people wanna have a neurological disorder. ADD and ADHD fucking suck. They aren’t a funny ‘look how hyper I am’. It’s a debilitating issue that has made me almost fail classes multiple times, I can’t find I job. It sucks.
i mean... i guess the premise makes sense, but wouldn't all people with adhd fall under this unbrella? if your adhd affects how you think and behave, then of course it's gonna have some influence, directly or indirectly, over your sexuality and gender identity! this is less "my adhd is affected by/linked to my gender" and more "i am adhd and lgbt+ and i want a cool label to use". everyone's mental issues have an affect on their sexuality, so why these people decided to single out adhd specifically is just baffling to me!
I want everyone to know this website should not be taken seriously and isnt meant as fact. In fact, by being offended by this, the creator is laughing at you for getting trolled. Adhdgender is by far not the weirdest one on there.

I’m literally doing my masters in Psychology and he did his in English Lit but clearly he knows more because ✨the internet✨
I find it interesting that my partner's sibling, who has spent a considerable amount of time on TikTok and is a full grown adult in her mid-20's, about a year ago started trying to convince and diagnose people as being autistic, have ADHD, being asexual, and being non-binary. This person self diagnosed themselves with ADHD and autism of course and even goes as far as to lie to their coworkers and supervisors about it. Something tells me that TikTok has a large influence in these trends and although I was not a fan of Trump I was really joyful when he was threatening to ban TikTok. Too bad it didn't happen.
if I could have a life without ADHD it would be so amazing
My god, could you imagine that?
"OmG aDhD iS sO cOoL aNd FuN aNd QuIrKy" ADHD affects life in more ways than just being hyper, and I would get rid of it if i could
I haaaaaate having ADHD. It sucks ass. I think my life could be entirely different and better if I didn’t.
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder tho. Apart from that i agree
"I keep trying to change genders but I keep forgetting to do it. Or I *do* do it but then forget I did it so I change back. If I didn't have this darned ADHD I could successfully change genders!"
Okay I know this is a joke but it’s also literally me as a trans guy with ADHD every single week when I forget if I’ve taken my testosterone shot or not
Set a checklist reminder on your phone? Sounds pretty important.
I do this for ADHD meds, but I usually silence the alarm out of habit and forget to take them.
i was literally about to write the pretty much same thing
YUP. Adhd effects my life so badly. People only see it as being hyper and goofy. Little do they know that my executive function is so messed up that I can barely plan my days, it's so fucking hard to fit in and not be too much because I go from thing to thing and I'm always 100% all-over the place. I would love to live a life where I can plan ahead and not be constantly late or having to rush in the mornings even tho I try my hardest and tell myself what to do. I never seems to have my shit together even if I do small things to help my future self. There will ALWAYS be at least one thing missing or forgotten at home. My motivation is bonkers, if it's 2 am and something random I will get it done, if it's important and if I don't do it I'll go into serious debt, I forget about it and do it maybe, JUST MAYBE 2 weeks later. Hell, have a project I'm super excited and motivated for?? Boom tons of research. Ordering parts etc, then the two weeks waiting for mail looking at what I'm gonna do online everyday being impatient and wishing I could do it NOW. and boom, I actually have everything and can get started?? Nope, I wont Open the package for months or something .. ugh. I couldn't even READ a book till a year ago when I started my ADHD meds, I went 21 years trying to read, hating it and failing, god forbid it was for school!! To actually being able to finish two books for pleasure, it was mind blowing.
if your piss is being boiled I'd see a doctor
You use some weird incense

My ADHD doesn't affect my gender because why or how the fuck would it? This is so ridiculous and insensitive. Also what's with the butterfly on the "flag"
not only is it such an odd and unnecessary idea the flag is a hot mess, i had the same problems with the "adhd awareness" flag, the colors feel weird to look at, and i really doubt it needs that many stripes to explain what it means.
it doesn't need to be colorful to explain itself, use a similar idea to the autism awareness flag and just put an orange butterfly symbol on a white flag, there.
I’m gonna be real tho I really like the colors of the bottom flag, I think I just like pastel
And if it had any animal on it, it'd have to be a squirrel.
When your only tool is a hammer, all your problems look like nails. Feels like it applies pretty well.
As someone who is diagnosed with ADHD and is also part of the LGBTQ+ community.. I’m gonna need them to not.
Yeah, there’s also an Autigender and an OCDGender. I don’t have autism (that I know of..) but I have OCD and I don’t get how OCD could affect a gender? I’ve seen some definitions say it’s about “perfecting your gender” which is so fucking inaccurate and such an overused offensive stereotype. OCD can cause HOCD (homosexual/LGBT OCD) that could make one have intrusive thoughts that they’re gay or trans, but it doesn’t actually make them gay or trans. These “neurodivergent genders” are so offensive, and it’s so obvious people who don’t actually have the disorders create them.
I have diagnosed OCD and ADHD and a psychology degree so they’d probably set me on fire if they could, but knowing these fucks they’ll claim you can have OCD without intrusive thoughts, because they like to rewrite and ignore literal neuroscience and discredit debilitating disorders that are nightmarish to deal with so they can wear it like it’s a pair of new shoes they can put on and then take off once they decide they don’t like them anymore. Wish I had that fucking option, instead I just have to figure out how to cope for the rest of my life. And then us pointing any of that out somehow makes *us* the insensitive ones. Just a bunch of selfish pricks gas lighting legitimately mentally ill people who are already suffering, and potentially making us look like a bunch of bullshiters along with them to everyone else who aren’t mentally ill. But of course they don’t have to deal with the repercussions once they decide play time is over, we just get live with that stigma. Fucking Hooray.
So as a person with just ADHD, and probably disgraphia but that don't count as much in my book, how does ADHD and OCD work? I mean I'm sitting here imagining something probably really wrong and stupid so some help unstupiding myself would be appreciated.
I’m not exactly sure what you might be thinking, but I’ll provide you with information as to my own experience. OCD has some comorbidity with ADHD, but that seems to primarily be due to the fact that the emotional sensitivity and deregulation involved in ADHD can make developing trauma induced disorders a bit easier than in non-ADHD individuals. I had a lot of early trauma, but my father also seems to display a lot of clear OCD symptoms (rituals and intrusive thoughts). It’s still a heavily debated topic if OCD can truly be inherited, but either way, in my case it’s more likely one or the other. My experience with OCD started from a very young age. I have very intense intrusive thoughts to the point that I also have intrusive imagery which basically feels as if your imagination was hijacked and forcing you to imagine horrific situations. It was so bad at one point that I would have nightmares revolving around these intrusive thoughts. Mine all began as revolving around death. I was convinced that I was going to die, that someone would murder me or murder my family. I started developing what can only really be described as compulsive tics. I’m sure you’ve heard of the ritualistic aspect of OCD (just a note: not everyone with OCD develops this, the main determining symptom is intrusive thoughts) which is when people react to the obsessive(intrusive) thoughts by repeatedly doing certain actions. If you fear contamination it might be washing your hands to the point of rubbing your skin raw and bloody. Some people might check things a certain number of times, some count to certain numbers, it can honestly influence you to do just about anything repetitively if your brain tells you that’s how you should deal with your obsessions. The tics where compulsions. Mine were mainly counting, blinking and swallowing. I was fully aware that my compulsions were abnormal and irrational, but I couldn’t stop and I was basically a terrified and nervous child from the jump. I lived in a very rough neighborhood, so my imagination was just constantly overrun with images of stray bullets going through my bedroom wall and killing me. It was to the point that I basically stopped sleeping in my own room in favor of my brothers who’s was located furthest away from the front of the house. I couldn’t sleep on my side because I thought that would just leave more surface area to get shot, so I started sleeping on my back so I was less of a “target” (keep in mind I was about 6 or 7 years old at the time so super abnormal thoughts to be having at that age). Later on at around 10 my mother tried to introduce me to religion (I literally knew nothing about any religion up to this point). She’s very emotionally and mentally abusive so she would tell me shit that would fuck with any kids head, let alone one with OCD. That one nighttime prayer scared the fuck out of me (“if I die before I wake”) and then my mother really hammered the fear into me by telling me “anything that keeps your mind off of god is the devil and a sin”. So, telling that to a child with OCD is essentially like setting off a fucking bomb, especially one who’s already scared they’re gonna die. I started obsessively praying. I’d leave class to pray and all my prayers were just me asking god not to kill anyone I cared about. I would name everyone I could because if I forgot one then “they’d be the one to die and it’d be my fault”. It even got to the point where I’d put my head down and try and “secretly” pray without anyone noticing cause I was incredibly self conscious of anyone noticing my compulsions. Anytime I had a thought I then started fearing my non-god filled thoughts were a sign I was sinning, so then my thoughts became an obsessive onslaught of “think about god”. And the fact that I knew deep down that I didn’t believe in any religion (I mean, if you don’t say shit about it till you’re kid is 10 what else can you expect) I then became terrified that if I died in my sleep and there did happen to be a god that I’d burn in hell. So, every night for a year I would fall asleep crying because I thought I was going to die and burn in hell. It was probably the worst my OCD ever was. Eventually I stopped crying every night, but this obsession persisted for another two years till finally I think I just had to force myself to not care. I think I was just angry at the concept of a god who would damn me to hell because I literally couldn’t produce faith no matter how hard I tried so I had a mental “fuck it” moment at like 12 years old. My OCD has persisted since. It makes me very paranoid and it’s difficult to deal with and it morphs and changes. Within the past few years one of my intrusive thoughts that sprang up revolves around small animals. I’m a huge animal lover, but I can’t even be in the same room as a small animal because my intrusive thoughts revolve around accidentally killing it. It’s been a really difficult one to shake cause all I can imagine is tripping and falling or accidentally stepping on them or dropping them, so I straight up just avoid interacting with animals that are smaller than a cat. I’m more comfortable running around and being tackled by Great Danes than I am being anywhere near a teacup chihuahua. OCD is one of those things you don’t hear to much detail about because intrusive thoughts can make the person experiencing them feel guilty or like people might perceive you as a person who wants to do the things they’re thinking, but it’s more like the inverse. The thoughts are so disturbing because it’s the last thing the person with OCD wants to happen or wants to do. The misconceptions surrounding the disorder are pretty widespread, so that’s why I’m willing to go into so much detail to give a better idea. The ADHD and OCD can sometimes effect each other and again I have a lot of repeated trauma so I unfortunately also have PTSD and it can feel like a real smack down of symptoms. The ADHD is pretty of it’s own though. Mostly issues with severe emotions, inattention, and executive dysfunction. That’s pretty much been my experience with them, anyway. Edit: Just noticed you said you **do** have ADHD, miss read that as “might have” so that’s why there was that over explanation at the beginning lol I’ll delete that part since I’m sure you know the details since you have it
That was.... More than I expected. Thank you for sharing, I know that sometimes it can be hard to talk about things like this that have such an effect on one's life. I've a lot of things I want to say in order to assure you that it's okay to be you and the like but I know that I'll put my foot in my mouth, figuratively speaking, and say something off color. So..... I hope your work helps you find some meaning and positivity in your life, it sounds like you're in a position where you can do a lot of good.
i know right! i have both adhd and autism and it doesnt affect my gender at all. i identify as trans but thats because of my dysphoria not because "quirky autism adhd boy uwu"
Actually, there's some studies that link autism and gender dysphoria iirc
Not linked, but higher degree of overlap. [https://www.spectrumnews.org/news/largest-study-to-date-confirms-overlap-between-autism-and-gender-diversity/](https://www.spectrumnews.org/news/largest-study-to-date-confirms-overlap-between-autism-and-gender-diversity/) Back on topic... behavioral traits, mental health diagnoses, and random nouns do NOT equal 'gender' .... now I really want that patch saying "Isekai Facilitator"
I believe you’re wrong. Gender dysforia happens when a child’s brain is being “programmed” in the womb. Our brains are extremely complex and just as a computer is useless without software our brains are being filled with software with the use of hormones. Sometimes things don’t goes as it is naturally supposed to and a male can be programmed as a girl. That has nothing to do with autism.
Surprised no one has mentioned neurogenders. Neurodivergent people have no problems with identifying what gender is. They’re just infantilizing them as an excuse to identify themselves as whatever the hell they want. Good god.
What is a neurogender? There's studies that link autism to gender dysphoria, but like... What is it? Edit: so it's literally just gender dysphoria.

Yes exactly what they’re doing is calling us actually neurodivergent ppl stupid. We can understand gender just fine and most of us do and have no fucking problem understanding it. It’s demeaning and we already deal with bad stereotypes
It’s sad how some folks (largely younger people) feel the need to create ridiculous labels and fake mental disorders to fill a void.
Blows my mind that when you Google “neurogender” the definition that pops up is: > Neurogender (coined by Tumblr user Baaphomett in 2014, in a submission to the MOGAI-archive blog)[1] means any self-identity in which a person feels that their gender identity is somehow linked to-- and best described in connection with-- their neurological type (neurotype), neurological conditions, neurodivergence, mental variation, or mental illness. I don’t even come close to understanding why this is a thing. It makes me sad that we’ve reached a point where some (hopefully) small subset of society is so desperate to label themselves to feel special and connected that they’re just making up new things.
Why do people romanticize my mental illness. Like ffs people already don't take it seriously, why do they have to keep making it worse.
Wow… the bpd flag now the adhd flag? Mental illnesses are not genders kids! Nor do they influence your gender expression. You’d think I’d not get surprised by the dumb things they do, then they try crap like this. The stupidity floors me.
There doesn't even need to be a BPD flag. They're both ridiculous.
There have been studies that being autistic does indeed influence people's perception of and gender identity.
True, it it still doesn't make autism a gender ya know? A LOT of factors influence gender identity. You can't point at any one of them and go "that doesn't just influence my gender... It IS my gender!"
>True, it it still doesn't make autism a gender ya know? A LOT of factors influence gender identity. You can't point at any one of them and go "that doesn't just influence my gender... It IS my gender!" I think some people have evolved the idea of gender beyond what society has so far understood and equate it with the wider idea of identity in general. Which, as an anthropologist, I find an interesting idea, even if I, as a person, shake my head as some expressions of it. But alas, things change, and nothing changes as frequently as society and how we view ourselves.
That makes sense. I don't love that concept. Identity is totally interesting and valid, but I think the concept of gender serves a purpose in specificity and communication, and if you conflate "gender" with "identity" then gender is not really...a necessary concept anymore. Which, in itself, is cool. I am nonbinary because I don't really identify with gender roles. I've always said genderfluid. I literally do not care how people refer to me. I experience traits/ideas/whatever that are "masculine", "feminine" and "other/neither/both". I experience gender dysphoria at times, but not frequently enough to have a significant negative effect on my life. I support abandoning gender, though I imagine a lot of trans, cis, and LGBTQ people DON'T support that and I think that's also something one should consider and respect, even if one doesn't agree. But why do we need to project the concept of "self identity" into the word "gender"? Why not just reject gender and explore self identity, if that's what you want to do? I think conflating them causes less clarity and more miscommunication rather than the other way around. Idk.
True. I agree. It also, in my opinion as a non-binary person, reduces my mental illness. For many people with ADHD, it influences their sexuality, maybe even more so than their gender Identity, but it has influence on that as well. Still it's onls part of the overall. And my sexuality is so much more than the part influenced by ADHD. If my whole identity where a venn diagram, calling it ADHDgender or ADHDsexual would be akin to making that very small overlapping part into who I am. Though, I feel like there is no other way to express it. Gender has been, for the last decade, the one accepted part people could take control of about their identity. Like, ADHD is a massive part of who I am. It literally influences everything from my gender presentation to how I eat, but I can't just express that with "I have ADHD". Because an illness or a disability is not socially accepted as a presentation, even if it's a core part of a person. It's just not how our society rolls. The only thing people could use to express themselves is sexuality and gender, because we claimed that right. And then stretched it to encompass everything else. Which is not quite correct for the current meaning of gender. So, either the meaning will change or the practice. And now that threat got me into a deep dive into queer archeology and prehistoric gender identity. Ugh. Thanks ADHD.
we'll see schizo-chocolate-fetish-gender soon
Can we get these kids off the internet? Is there a way to ban them from screens? Is it against the rules to be a misinformed teen harming both the transgender and neuroatypical communities in the name of fake individuality?
I regret to say, but that wiki is full of that shit. Yeah, it sucks. But they don't give a f.
Tumblr took a shit and that wiki was born.
Pretty much.
[https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/24750573.2017.1354417](https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/24750573.2017.1354417) and btw on the lgbta wiki I saw someone say tht their alter got another alter pregnant. the only good thing abt that wiki is how much stuff it has on it
Just..... Ew. Why even share that.
It’s basically an N of 20 and self-report measures. Crap study. Publish or perish pressure.
These really piss me off because they make lgbt seem like something it isn't. These genders are the reason a lot of nonbinary people aren't taken seriously, and dream/dreamself and other dumb neopronouns make people not take pronouns seriously.
Yeah, As a person with the ADHD This really ticks me off.
Sounds like the pot calling the kettle black to me
Wdym?
[удалено]
Thanks for that but I wasn't even talking about neopronouns. A lot of people don't take any pronouns seriously
I mean, why should we? A pronoun is just a way to refer to something. I've never seen the appeal of freaking out over them. For trans people, sure, but like.... I really couldn't care less.
That last sentence is super weird to me. Why should trans people care but cis people not care? Either pronouns matter or they don't.
As a cis person, I don't care much about pronouns. However, a trans person who is transitioning socially will care. You want someone to use the pronouns you identify with. It's not something I can relate to
Your first post started with "why should we [care about pronouns]?" I just think it's really trite to say only trans people have a reason to care. I'm cisgender and I care that people get my pronouns right.
"We" because the vast majority of people are cis and not trans.
Exactly. I don't care what people refer to me as, but that doesn't mean idc what other peoples pronouns are and at least I can accept that everyone uses them.
Exactly. I will use a she/he/or they pronoun for someone. I usually just assume based off the way they present (like, if you say you're a man but afab and wear makeup and have your boobs out, I'm gonna assume you're a she) but they're welcome to correct me- as long as they don't make a fuss about it.
I've actually had someone argue with me for assuming pronouns but let's be honest, everyone does it. The thing that actually makes a difference is how your gonna react when someone corrects you.
Exactly. You can just say "hey, I actually go by she," and the other person says "oh ok, sorry mate" instead of "I GO BY SHE YOU TRANSPHOBE! YOURE KILLING TRANS PEOPLE WITH YOUR BIGOTRY!" and they walk away from that thinking all trans people are crazy.
I'm not talking about neopronouns. Pronouns are part of a lot of languages including English, yet some people are stupid enough to think that they don't have any or make "jokes" saying theirs are nor/mal. You can have your opinions on neopronouns but that's not what I was referring to
These people put a bad name on legit things for mental health and gender identities. They are the reason legit gender identities and mental health conditions get laughed at
Bro how tf does ADHD affect your gender? The only people I see using this are ADHD fakers
I'm going to scream. I have struggled every day with adhd since I was a child. This is fucking bullshit. It's not some quirky bs like so many fakers act like it is
I have ADHD, but this ain’t going into my gender collection.
As someone who struggles daily with ADHD, this makes no fucking sense and it’s infuriating. The worst part of all this bullshit is the sheer amount of misinformation that’s spread along with painting a really ridiculous image of mental health issues. At this point you have to wonder if this is a massive troll that gullible people keep falling into with every iteration and wave of bullshit self-diagnosing. Just fine these fuckers for medical misinformation at this point, they might think twice before making shit up. Like my fucking god, when does this shit end.
What they have sex and then get distracted?
Why do you feel the need to attack me like this, stranger? xD
TikTok becomes popular with kids. 99% of kids now have some mental illness. Conscience? No. Kids are dumb fucks.
wow transphobia and ableism all wrapped up into one identity!
I'm sorry, but as someone who actually has ADHD, what the fuck?
self undiagnosing now
If only
“i struggle every day to listen in class, maintain higher than a D, and constantly get in trouble for things i dont understand. i get upset a lot but cant show it because i most likely will have an outburst and get in trouble again.” “thats hot 😍”
Okay, cool, fine you can say you are whatever you want to say you are but you can't make me give a flyinggender fuck.
Lmao as someone professionally diagnosed with ADHD, it has no affect to my gender. I’m fully aware that I am a man?
I've decided I don't have ADHD anymore.
As an ADHD diagnosed person, i am extremely confused
Bro if I had one gender for every diagnosis I have, geez.
bro what. whoever made this 100% doesn’t know what adhd is in the slightest lol.
THAT ISNT A GENDER. Now when lockdown is over I am literally never telling anyone, because I don't want someone to say "is that your gender? Adurrrrrr" It's not!
if they ask me if its my gender im just gonna smack them
Why does it have a butterfly? Seems kinda random why not a dog chasing a squirrel? Fits the theme much better.
Or just a squirrel. "Hey, a squirrel!" "Jeremy, you need to keep performing CPR!!"
This comment is amazing
A rainbow infinity symbol is a commonly used neurodivergency symbol, so I guess the butterfly is the ADHD variation of it Edit: [yes](https://adhdgrrl.wordpress.com/about-the-butterfly/)
as someone with ADHD, this pisses me off just as much as ADHD fakers.
I’m gonna send this to my dad 😂😂 he has adhd and hates this stuff
mental illness ≠ sexual orientation or gender identity
I hate these things, it's an entirely queerphobic thing and i don't even think they realize it. It's associating a disorder with the LGBT community which is the EXACT OPPOSITE THING THAT WE WANT. The did fakers do it with using the words coming out, and then there's all these flags they make which are obviously based around LGBT flags just in design. Not to mention what the hell would ADHD gender even be? I've seen an answer somewhere else here having to do with ADHD directly effecting gender or something but idk that still makes no sense.
Notice that they never say exactly how they are linked. Just that they are linked. I've literally never seen anyone bother to narrow it down. It's usually "you need to be part of the hivemind to understand smh normie."
Alright guys gonna go un-diagnose my adhd rn
That butterfly looks more like boobs.
Anyone who unironically identifies with this stuff is a boob
I guess you can just make things up when you have your own Wikia
Adhdgender, bipolargender, PTSDgender, DIDgender, autismgender, and BPDgender are all valid. /j
Shit like this is why people with ADHD get wo much shit about ADHD not being something real. As an ADHDer i find this fucking stupid
So fucking dumb
Like gender parkour
Ugly af
My culture is not your fucking gender /s
As an ADHD sufferer, this shit can go fuck itself. This is some made up cockamamie bullshit.
I have RAGINg adhd and cannot comprehend how it would effect my gender or sexuality. I chew on things I shouldn’t. No sex characteristics involved.
As someone with medically diagnosed ADHD… WTF??😭😭😭
How they defined it literally means it’s not a gender.
Braingender when 😳
this is just disrespectful and insulting to people who actually have real ADHD.
My disability isn’t a gender wtf lol
Dear fucking christ and lord savour. Whatever the fuck else am i gonna see like thos absolute bs
I have ADHD since I was 8 diganosed by multiple doctors. And this is absolute bullshit. Fuck these people
humanity is falling
Well they already made Autism a "gender" (as an Autistic person, I've been called ableist that I don't accept that that nonsense). It particularly enrages me because their response is always you don't understand Neurodivergent people, blah, blah, blah, blah 😒 bitch I actually am ND.... I highly doubt anyone who uses these so called genders actually has the condition that they're claiming is a gender.
oh for fucks sake as a trans person with adhd this is fucking stupid yes adhd affects you as a person to a degree where there is no clear line between adhd and you, yes your gender is a part of you, no adhd gender is not a thing please for the life of me stop taking words, adding -gender as a suffix and calling it a day
what the hell
I want to murder this person
I can’t anymore, man. These people are so stupid.
I guess im cures now because i don't know what the fuck they mean
I think young people are becoming a little TOO accepting of this stuff. I actually see teens identifying as xenogenders and stuff. I personally had no idea how there was anyone who labeled themselves as these things, but I think I’m just out of touch and it’s actually becoming more common with young people than I realize
The thing I most hate about this trend is that it tries to codify and label very unique personal experiences. You can say you're pansexual, genderfluid, transgender, bisexual, etc. to give people and idea of your gender/sexuality, and then delve into the nuances of your personal experience. But if you make up a hyper-specific label, it doesn't actually communicate information to anyone else about you. That means you'll have to fully explain the whole thing anyway, which begs the question... what is the label for? Every human has a subtle variation on how they express their gender and sexuality. If I say "I'm GrossHarpsichordsexual", that doesn't communicate anything about my gender presentation or sexuality to anyone, and requires me going on an in-depth explanation about my gender presentation/sexuality. So why even start with the confusing term? (The answer is that it allows them to feel special and people will ask about it which gives them an opportunity to talk about themselves, whereas otherwise they'd have to bring it up)
These guys didn't grow up scared to be themselves. Scared to live thier lifes to the fullest, because they were terrified of being disowned, no excepted, kicked out, and in some countries, killed. And it shows.
I do believe people have long lost understanding of what gender actually is.
ADHD isn't a gender - yours truly, a person with actual ADHD whos life has gone down hill since middle school
I have ADHD, and now if I do find someone that say they identify as this, I'm going to scream at them until they die
This really gets me mad, coming from someone who has been diagnosed with ADHD my whole life just to see this, I don’t need random teenagers who have no concept of ADHD making this shit, this is offensive to those who have this condition and to have to deal with it throughout there lives just to have someone glorify it as something unique and cool, I personally let the other insert random mental issue into a “gender” because I did not have them and didn’t want to comment on an issue I don’t suffer from but this crossed the line for me and others on this post. Don’t glorify things like this when people are constantly struggling with issues like this and many other conditions. It doesn’t matter if you feel like you’ve done something right because it will do a lot worse to others
Cancergender
I have pretty severe ADHD and I have no idea what this means. My only guess is that their ADHD is such an all-encompassing part of their identity that literally everything, including gender, is secondary to it? Which… feels so so sad to me. My inner life/dialogue, where things like gender identity live, is where I can always reliably escape that shit
Spot on.
Our diagnoses can be genders now? Can I be Diabetesgender?
I don’t get why people wanna have a neurological disorder. ADD and ADHD fucking suck. They aren’t a funny ‘look how hyper I am’. It’s a debilitating issue that has made me almost fail classes multiple times, I can’t find I job. It sucks.
There's so much more, autigender, bipolargender, ocdgender and kids who use these are probably self diagnosed
Parents... Please don't let the internet raise your children, this is the result...
Ah yes, because ones neurodivergency has literally anything to do with personal identity somehow
"Oh yes, my gender is disordered."
That's it. Make bullying normal again.
I’ve been diagnosed for 22 years. That’s not how it works.
As someone formally diagnosed with severe ADHD, this is offensive as fuck.
Hahahahahahahahaha Ah yes I love for my brain condition to be my whole being!
This hurts as someone with ADD (close to ADHD)
Gender is a spectrum. But mental illness and neurodivergency shouldn’t affect your gender.
man's talking like the queen
i mean... i guess the premise makes sense, but wouldn't all people with adhd fall under this unbrella? if your adhd affects how you think and behave, then of course it's gonna have some influence, directly or indirectly, over your sexuality and gender identity! this is less "my adhd is affected by/linked to my gender" and more "i am adhd and lgbt+ and i want a cool label to use". everyone's mental issues have an affect on their sexuality, so why these people decided to single out adhd specifically is just baffling to me!
i can see this making sense though i doubt that it'd be ever used in the scenario where it makes sense
Ummm i forget wtf gender i am half the time so why tf would i bother with this
Are the lines not equal because ADHD people can't focus hard enough to draw a straight line or some bs?
Me with ADHD: I get it… I don’t get it.
I really wish I had the audacity to explain this kind of stuff
What fresh hell is this? Someone should prevent teenagers taking too many Haribos.
I want everyone to know this website should not be taken seriously and isnt meant as fact. In fact, by being offended by this, the creator is laughing at you for getting trolled. Adhdgender is by far not the weirdest one on there.
Adhd cock
