Blayda mostly liked being a boy, but was yet to choose his gender. It was many moons since Min had celebrated hers at her genderite ceremony, when she came into her 117th lunar cycle. Chapter 3: Living Together, Min Barklin and the Silver Radiants.
Lumins do not prefer any gender over another. Each is equally loved and respected for their contribution to the community.
Gendarite is a ceremony for every ning during their 108th lunar month, (or nine gawple calendar years).
Lumins believe that by then, a ning has a good idea of which gender contribution they want to make as they move into young glinhood.
Some lumins don’t make a choice at all, which is considered normal.
