Asteroid comes from the Greek word for star. Non-binary people are often represented by stars (such as with [[stellarian]]) as there are countless stars completely separate from the influence of our human gender binary (unlike the sun and moon, having been gendered in religions and cultures through time), loving non-binary people as a man is known as being an astroidian, especially as men are represented by squares, and the shape of an asteroid is square-like yet also star like, representing the union of men and non-binary people<ref>https://ask-pride-color-schemes.tumblr.com/post/176299468880/astroidian</ref>. |
