Lunarian



Lunarian, also called a lunar non-binary person, is a non-binary gender and gender alignment from the galactian alignment system. In many cultures around the world, the moon is personified as a woman, or is associated with feminine energy, so lunarian is used to refer to non-binary people who are woman or feminine-aligned.

Possible examples of lunarian experiences include:
 * Someone who is partially a woman.
 * Someone who has some connection to womanhood without being a woman.
 * Someone who has a gender similar to, but not the same as, a woman.
 * Someone who is fingender or connected to femininity while not being a woman or having a connection to womanhood.
 * A non-binary person who presents femininely (regardless of their actual gender).
 * Someone connected to womanhood through their experience with society. They may be treated as or have experiences similar to that of a woman.

The term is meant to be a less easily misused or manipulated form of "female-aligned." Since there is no consistent definition of gender alignment, there is no consistent definition of lunarian. Some non-binary people may fit some of these experiences but not identify as lunarian.

The masculine equivalent is solarian. The neutral or unaligned equivalent is stellarian.
