Venusic

Venusic is an orientation for non-binary people who are exclusively attracted to women, women-aligned people, and lunarians. The term was created as an alternative to gynesexual, and is meant to be used along side the galactian alignment system, though it can be used by any non-binary person. The term can be altered to indicate sexual attraction, romantic attraction, or other forms of attraction with venussexual, venusromantic, etc.

Similar terms include feminamoric, trixic, and lunaric.

The masculine equivalent to venusic is marsic. The non-binary equivalent is terraric.

History
The term was first thought of from a reply to an anonymous submission to the Tumblr blog, temp-nb-blog on December 30, 2016.

Flag
The venusic flag was designed by temp-nb-blog on February 21, 2017. The color scheme was chosen to represent femininity and to resemble the clouds of Venus.

The simplified version of the venusic flag, which has four stripes, was made by twitter user @strwbryfemme and posted on June 17, 2021. The same user also made a higher-contrast version of the original flag, posted on twitter on May 30, 2021. @strwbryfemme's flags should be used with caution as fawn has a history of exclusionism against m-spec lesbians and fetishism of Korean artists.

Another 4-stripe version of the venusic flag was made by FANDOM user ElderflowerJuice on July 27, 2021.

Etymology
Venus was chosen as the root of Venusic because Venus was historically associated with women and feminine energy.
