Transyada is an online community and discussion forum for users interested in "messing around with gender" which became active in 2010.
Origins
The forum was a spinoff of the "TransWhatevers of AVEN" thread, hosted on the Asexuality Visibility and Education Network forum. User Teagan KGB created the thread for trans people who desired an alternative to previously existing threads for trans men and trans women.[1]
The term "yada" originated on the first page of this thread in an exchange between users Pugnacioun, Percy McKean and P is For...[2][3][4] The Yada Wiki describes yadas as "...originally brought together under the pretense of... slip[ping] between the cracks of the binary, identifying as something neither wholly male nor wholly female - perhaps both, perhaps neither, perhaps either on alternating days or one only when it rains, but certainly not how they were born."[4] Definitions of "transyada", a related term, also appear in an AVEN thread from November 2010.[5]
Forum
Sample threads from the gender subforum include "What the gender are you thinking?![6]" (miscellaneous thoughts about gender), "Genderwatch" (relevant news articles), and "Rantfest Thread-- Gender Version" (venting related to gender).[7] Users also asked questions about and contributed their definitions of gender-related terminology.[8][9]
Wiki
The Yada Wiki can currently only be accessed via the Wayback Machine. It includes entries on gender labels including agender, androgyne, demigirl, and neutrois. [10][11]
