Not to be confused with Lunettian.
Lunarian, sometimes written as a lunar non-binary person,[1] is a gender alignment in the galactian alignment system, referring to non-binary individuals whose gender is woman-aligned and/or feminine-aligned.[1][3] A lunarian is someone who has similarities in identity or experience with women, in the same way that many cultures consider the moon to possess feminine energy.[1] It can also refer to someone who has a complicated but existing relationship with feminine genders/alignment.[3] The term is meant to be a less easily abused form of "female-aligned".[1] Since there is no consistent definition of gender alignment, there is no consistent definition of lunarian. Possible examples of lunarian experiences include:
- Someone who is partially a woman.
- Someone who has some connection to womanhood, without being a woman.[1][3]
- Someone who has a gender similar to, but not the same as a woman.
- Someone whose gender is feminine-in-nature or connected to femininity while not being a woman.
- 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 and/or have experiences similar to that of a woman.[1]
Some non-binary people may fit some of these experiences but not identify as lunarian. (See Subsets)
The masculine equivalent is solarian.
The neutral/unaligned equivalent is stellarian.[1]
