    I always liked FLIPPers…

    Since MAMILs is usually used as a pejorative, I always like to retort with FLIPPers…

    Or if you’re feeling polite: SLIPPers…

    precisely.

    ‘cyclist’ seems to work.

    Not sure how sexual orientation is supposed to relate to gender identity and the ‘MAMIL’ debate, as they are two separate things. A quick Google would tell you that much.

    Trans people generally identify with one gender or the other so MAMIL (man or maiden) would be appropriate. As for people that are genderqueer or other, perhaps MAPIL (person) would be appropriate? But, then, that’s if they choose to ‘out’ themselves of course.

    Not sure what you mean by ‘otherkin’ or ‘butterfly’, could potentially be offensive to some people. Just my tuppence seeing as though it’s 2015 and we’re supposed to be living in a progressive society. Also trying to encourage people into the cycling community.
