The '''Alloy Alignment System''' is a [[Gender Systems|system]] to describe one's gender, using several metals from the periodic table. The system was meant as a way to describe complex genders in a simpler way. This system ''only'' describes one's gender, It is completely free of [[Gender Alignment|alignment]], there is no male-aligned, female-aligned, [[Abinary|unaligned]], etc. If, for example, one's gender is [[masculine]], in this system that does not say anything about that person's [[Gender Presentation|presentation]] or alignment. A person can have any presentation or alignment and their gender element will still be the same. Each person experiences masculinity, [[Feminine|femininity]], etc., differently. The alloy alignment system
These terms should not be thought of as being genders themselves per se, rather, these are more like [[Umbrella Term|umbrella terms]]. For example, [[aur]], the masculine element, is not exactly a gender by itself, it is an umbrella term for any genders that are masculine, such as [[demiboy]], [[proxvir]], [[cenrell]], etc. These terms can be used as genders by themselves if desired, but that is not necessarily the intent of the terms.

The alloy alignment system should not be confused with the [[Element System|gender element system]]. Both use the term "gender elements" to describe the identities in their system, however the element system uses the classical elements (fire, water, earth, air).
== History ==
The original form of the alloy alignment system was post on December 1, 2018, on the Tumblr blog lgbt-alchemy<ref>https://lgbt-alchemy.tumblr.com/post/180684480755/alloy-alignments-base-metals-genders</ref>. The original system was created by a person named Hail. On December 17, 2019, the blog was handed over to Tired, from the blog Tirednowhasablog<ref>https://lgbt-alchemy.tumblr.com/post/189725164110/oh-hi</ref>. They posted a reworked version of the alloy system on December 19, 2019<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20200224095559/https://lgbt-alchemy.tumblr.com/post/189762817895/metal-system-redone</ref>.
The reworked version changed several things including adding two new gender elements; [[cro]] and [[mana]], and altering the names of several of the gender elements.
