'''Juvelic Orientationsorientations''' are a category of orientations[[orientation]]s that are based on one's [[gender]] and the gender(s) one is attracted to. For example, [[lesbian]] is a juvelic orientation because it specifies the gender of the identifier (women or non-men) and the gender of the people they're attracted to (women or non-men). An example of non-juvelic orientation would be bisexual, because it does ''not'' specify the gender of the bisexual person- anyone can be bisexual, regardless of their gender.
All the orientations in the [[Gender-Loving-Gender|gender-loving-gender]] format are inherently juvelic because they're based on telling one's own gender and the gender(s) of the people one is attracted to. However not all juvelic orientations are in the gender-loving-gender format. The GLG format is specifically for terms that are non-exclusive and explicitly use the format of GLG. Terms such as [[feminamoric]], [[marsic]], [[venusic]], and [[viramoric]] are all examples of juvelic orientations that don't explicitly use the GLG system.
Juvelic orientations most commonly refer to men, women, and [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] (or some combination of those three), however any gender(s) can be used when describing a juvelic orientation. Juvelic orientations can also be used by a-spec individuals, as juvelic orientations can be used to refer to sexual orientation, romantic orientation, or any [[Tertiary Attraction|tertiary attractions]] one has.
