Solarian







Solarian is a non-binary gender / gender alignment from the galactian alignment system. In many cultures around the world, the sun is personified as a man, or is associated with masculine energy, so solarian is used to refer to non-binary individuals who are male-aligned and/or masculine-aligned. A solarian is someone who has similarities in identity or experience with men/boys. Possible examples of solarian experiences include:


 * Someone who is partially male.
 * Someone who has some sort of connection to boyhood/manhood, regardless of actual gender.
 * Someone who has a gender similar to, but not the same as male.
 * Someone who is mingender/connected to masculinity regardless of actual gender.
 * A non-binary individual who presents masculinely (regardless of their actual gender).
 * Someone connected to boyhood/manhood through their experience with society. They may be treated as and/or have experiences similar to that of a man/boy.

The term is meant to be a less easily abused form of "male aligned". Since there is no consistent definition of gender alignment, there is no consistent definition of solarian. Some non-binary individuals fit some of these experiences but they do not need to identify as solarian.

The feminine equivalent is lunarian. The neutral/unaligned equivalent is stellarian.

The yellow stripe represent the non-binary nature of this gender. Black represents those with no gender. Grey represents the varying levels in which individuals can experience gender.
