Joyqueer ⛅🌈

Coined by 👑 of our system, a revamp/recoining of Joycore from our old host, done as a blankqueer label 💛✨

An 8 stripe flag with a pastel rainbow stripe in the middle. The top 4 stripes are, from top to bottom; purple, blue, teal, and yellow. The bottom 4 stripes are, top to bottom, yellow, light green, darker green, and pink. There's a smiley face symbol in the middle

Joyqueer is a blankqueer label that is derived from / a sublabel of Radqueer. You do not have to be RQ to be JQ but they share a lot of beliefs ! They are cousins ☆

Joyqueer aims for radical inclusion and radical kindness. It's about doing whatever you want forever, so long as it makes you and others happy 💛 It promotes self-kindness, kindness to others (your neighbors!), love (except by those who are loveless!), friendliness, etc etc! It is extremely hedonistic in its philosophy.

Joyqueer is inherently inclusive of :

  • LGBTQ+ / MOGAI / LIOM identities
  • Queerness & deviancy of all forms, whatever that means for you!
  • All fetishes, kinks, and paraphilias
  • All transidentities / transX
  • Alterhumanity & other nonhumanity (ie otherkin, furries, those with delusion-based identities, KFF, etc)
  • Youth liberation
  • All neurodivergencies & disorders (including MUDs)
  • Mad & disabled pride
  • All system types & origins (including tulpamancy)
    ...and is consang safe, age regressor safe, & pro-fiction!

Joyqueer is anti-bigotry, anti-harassment, anti-callout culture and anti-bullying. It is not anti any way of existing. It believes in harm reduction, not forced recovery, and believes people should choose their own way of coping / recovering / reducing harm, even if nonconventional or strange!

Joyqueer believes in risk-aware informed consent and discourages nonconsensual abuse. It has no inherent contact stance, but is pro transid transition! For transharmful/transhateful identities, it encourages roleplay and other outlets rather than direct transition, as it would not bring joy to others.
Anyone can use Joyqueer if they believe in it! The only rule is that you adopt The Joyqueer Way of no harassing people/involvement in callouts etc, and you take people in good faith. JQ does not like discourse and arguments, only education and respectful discussion!

There is no Joyqueer that is exclusionary! Even if you do not agree or understand, you can be kind! Joyqueer inclusionism is based on neutrality in this way. For example, you can not understand certain parts of what Joyqueer includes (transid, consang etc), but so long as you are not anti-these things or are bigoted, you can use Joyqueer!

Joyfreak is a JQ subterm that focuses on the parts of us that society deems freakish! Paraphilias, kink, madpride, etc. Very similar to JQ already, but more precise in it's meaning besides "just joy"! There's no flag (yet?!), just a different word to give distinction to those who want it!

Alt flags :
The Joyqueer flag as described above but without the smiley face symbol
The Joyqueer flag as described above, but the rainbow stripe has been made into rainbow squares instead of being smeared.
