    '''Gender Alignment''' is a term used by some [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] individuals to describe the way their experiences and/or gender may intersect with the gender binary. Related terms include [[woman]]-aligned and [[man]]-aligned, and sometimes also [[Abinary|unaligned]], [[neutral]]-aligned, and [[Xenic|xeno-aligned]]. individuals may identify with multiple alignments at the same time or one's alignment may might change over time.
     
    The terms [[feminine]] aligned and [[masculine]] aligned are also sometimes used but these are not interchangeable with woman female-aligned and man male-aligned. Someone with a feminine gender is not necessarily a womanfemale or related to womengirls, and someone with a masculine gender is not necessarily a manmale or related to men.boys Additionally some individuals may be womenfemale/menmale but their gender does not feel feminine/masculine.
     
    There is no consistent definition of gender alignment. The term is intentionally vague and it can be used to describe several different things. Possible meanings can include:
     
    *Someone who is partially a mangirl/womanboy ([[demigender]]).
    *Someone who is a mangirl/womanboy in addition to other genders ([[bigender]], [[trigender]], or otherwise [[multigender]].)
    *Someone with a vague or partial connection to manhoodboyhood/womanhoodgirlhood, withoutregardless beingof aactual man/womangender.
    *A [[genderfluid]] or [[genderflux]] individual who is only sometimes a mangirl/womanboy or sometimes partially a mangirl/womanboy.
    * Someone who connects to manhoodboyhood/womanhoodgirlhood through experiencing mangirl/womanboy specific attraction. For example, someone may be woman female-aligned because they are a [[lesbian]]/feel attraction to womenother girls as a womangirl.
    *Someone with a gender similar to, but not the same as a mangirl/womanboy ([[proxvirjuxera]]/[[juxeraproxvir]]).
    *Someone with a vague or partial connection to masculinity/femininity, withoutregardless beingof aactual man/womangender.
    * A non-binary individual who [[Gender Presentation|presents]] masculinely/femininely (regardless of their actual gender).
    *Someone who has experiences similar to that of a mangirl/womanboy.
    * Someone who is treated as/seen as a mangirl/womanboy in society, or someone who interacts with society in a way similar to mengirls/womenboys. This includes interacting with the patriarchy as a mangirl/womanboy.
     
    Gender alignment is something that one may identify as, but not all non-binary individuals use gender alignment. Just because someoneone identifies themselfthemselves as a certain alignment doesn't automatically mean that someone else with a similar gender and/or experience will also identify with the same alignment or even identify with alignment at all.
     
    Terms such as masculine aligned and feminine aligned as often misused and misunderstood by individuals who are not non-binary, and are sometimes use to imply that non-binary individuals are actually men or womenfemale/male. They are also misused as a way to try and associate or categorize non-binary individuals using the [[Binary Genders|gender binary]]. The [[Galactian Alignments|galactian alignment system]] was created as less easily misunderstood alternative to alignments based language.
