This article is extremely long, and most of the terms are obscure and not used enough to warrant their own article. However, they are expanded enough to be more than just a few words in an incredibly lenghty single article. I propose to subdivide this article into sub-articles that divide these genders into categories. I will propose this on the discord as well. --[[User:MorningSparrow|MorningSparrow]] ([[User talk:MorningSparrow|talk]]) 02:25, 9 May 2019 (UTC) | This article is extremely long, and most of the terms are obscure and not used enough to warrant their own article.

This article is extremely long, and most of the terms are obscure and not used enough to warrant their own article. However, they are expanded enough to be more than just a few words in an incredibly lenghty single article. I propose to subdivide this article into sub-articles that divide these genders into categories. I will propose this on the discord as well. --MorningSparrow (talk) 02:25, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
