Laven describes non-binary people who present with a combination of traditionally feminine and androgynous features.
Laven is a term from the pallet system of non-binary gender presentation. It's used to describe non-binary people's gender presentation without having to use the binary language like 'masculine' or 'woman-aligned'. It is similar to the lesbian terms 'butch' and 'femme'. The term was designed to be used along side the galactian alignment system, but can be used by any non-binary person. For example a feminine and androgynous presenting, androgynous aligned non-binary person could call themself laven stellarian.
