'''Gender-Loving-Gender''' is a format used to describe attraction or relationships. Examples include mlm (man loving man) and wlnb (woman loving non-binary). These terms are based on one's own gender and the gender they are attracted to. This attraction does not have to be exclude.

These are umbrella identities, and typically aren't used as orientations on their own, however they can if one wants to. Rather, they're mostly use to form a sense of community around a common identity. For example, [[Lesbian|lesbians]], [[bisexual]] women, and [[pansexual]] women all fall under the category or [[sapphic]]. Some people, such a does attracted to [[Plutaric|multiple genders]], may fall under multiple of these categories.

== How To Use ==

The first letter indicates what one personally identify as. "M" represents men, those who are male-aligned, or partially men, “W” represents those who are women, female-aligned, or partially women, or “NB” or sometimes just "N" represents those who are [[Non-Binary|non-binary]]. One can fall under multiple of the gender categories at once. For example, one could be [[genderfluid]], or one could be non-binary but still have a strong connection to masculinity or femininity, or one could be [[bigender]] or [[multigender]], experiencing multiple different genders at the same time.

The second letter, “L”, is for loving.

The third letter indicates who you are attracted to, either “M”, “W”, or “N”. You could experience that attraction and/or participate in those relationships exclusively or not. One may identify with any of these terms or any combination of them, all dependent upon how one views themself and how one views their relationships/attraction(s).
