Uranian is a 19th-century term that referred to a person of a third sex—originally, someone with "a female psyche in a male body" who is sexually attracted to men, and later extended to cover homosexual gender variant females, and a number of other sexual types.

It is believed to be an English adaptation of the German word Urning, which was first published by activist Karl Heinrich Ulrichs (1825–95) in a series of five booklets (1864–65) which were collected under the title Forschungen über das Räthsel der mannmännlichen Liebe ("Research into the Riddle of Man-Male Love").

A "Uranian" can refer to something related to the planet Uranus. It can also refer to a person who is bisexual, based on an obsolete 19th-century terminology.

How many days does Uranus revolves around the sun?

Uranus is way farther from the Sun than Earth, so it takes longer to revolve around it. Instead of taking about 365 Earth days, which is how long it takes Earth, Uranus takes about30,685 Earth days!You can't have a simple exact answer. For one thing there are slightly different definitions for the "orbital period" of Uranus and the length of an "Earth day".(I've used one of the numbers given by NASA.)


How long is the orbit of Uranus in days?

It takes 84 Earth years for Uranus to make one orbit of the Sun . That is for every once Uranus has gone round the Sun , the Earth has gone round the Sun 84 times. So for Uranus to make one orbit of the Sun , the Earth will make 84 X 364 = 30660 days.
