    '''Gender-Loving-Gender''' is a format used to describe [[Juvelic Orientations|juvelic]] attractions or relationships. These terms are based on stating one's own [[gender]] and the gender(s) they are attracted to. Examples include mlm (man loving man) and wlnb (woman loving non-binary). This attraction does not have to be exclusive.
    '''Gender-Loving-Gender''' ('''GLG''') is a format used to describe some [[Juvelic Orientations|juvelic]] attractions or relationships. These terms are based on stating one's own [[gender]] and the gender(s) one is attracted to. Examples include mlm (man loving man) and wlnb (woman loving non-binary). For terms that use the gender-loving-gender format attraction does not have to be exclusive.


    These terms are commonly used to form a sense of community around a common attraction. For example, [[Lesbian|lesbians]], [[bisexual]] women, and [[pansexual]] women all fall under the category of [[sapphic]] (wlw), because they are all attracted to women and these attractions don't have to be exclusive. In this case by identifying as sapphic they are emphasizing or prioritizing their attraction to women over any other attractions that they may have.
    These terms are commonly used as umbrella terms to form a sense of community around a common attraction. For example, [[Lesbian|lesbians]], [[bisexual]] women, and [[pansexual]] women all fall under the category of women loving women (wlw)/[[sapphic]], because they are all attracted to women and these attractions don't have to be exclusive. In this case by identifying as sapphic they are usually emphasizing or prioritizing their attraction to women over any other attractions that they may have.


    Some people, such as [[multigender]] and/or [[Pluralian|multisexual]] people, may fall under multiple of these categories. One may identify as multiple of these terms or some combination of them, all dependent upon how one views themself and how one views their relationships/attraction(s).

    One can fall under multiple of the gender categories at once. The category(s) one falls under is based entirely on one's own perception of their gender and what aspects of their gender they consider important to their attraction. For example, a woman aligned non-binary person may identify only in the W category, or they may identify only in the NB category, or they may identify as being in both categories.
