Gynesexual



Gynesexual refers to someone who is exclusively attracted to femininity and/or female anatomy. This means that heterosexual men and lesbian women can be considered gynesexuals. However, the term is was made with non-binary or genderqueer people in mind.

However, many non-binary people prefer terms like finsexual, venusic, or womasexual to describe this attraction, because gynesexual can have unfavorable connotations. The term gynesexual is commonly used by transphobes as a reason to exclude trans women because they are only attracted to "female anatomy". Additionally, some definitions of gynesexual say it is the attraction femininity or female body parts, regardless of whether that person identifies as female. Under this definition it reduces people to their genitalia, and puts cis women and pre-surgery trans men in the same group because they have "female anatomy".
