{{Sexuality Info|image1=Feminamoricflag.png|caption1=The original feminamoric flag.|gender(s):=Male|gender(s)_attracted_to:=Women}}'''Feminamoric''' is a femmoric orientation that refers to men who are exclusively attracted to [[Man|women]]. This is also known as a [[Super Straight]] male. People who go by this term are usually transphobic like other [[Super Straight]] people. |

The term was created because it was decided that [[Super Straight]] men should have their own term to describe their orientation. |

The term was created because most other ways to say that one is attracted to women involve the assumption of one's gender. For example, a straight person attracted to women is typically a man. A [[gay]] or [[lesbian]] person attracted to women is typically a woman. Although some non-binary people have also adopted this framing of their orientation, some non-binary people are uncomfortable with this, and found the term feminamoric useful for specifying a non-binary person attracted to women. |

The [[masculine]] counterpart to feminamoric is [[viramoric]]. The non-binary counterpart is [[ceteramoric]]. A similar term is [[Gynesexual|gynosexual]], though some people are uncomfortable identifying with this term as it can have transphobic implications. |

In the original flag, there were 5 stripes: maroon, white, pink, white, olive green. Some colors were borrowed from the genderqueer and diamoric flag. The creator and history of the original flag is unknown. |

In several proposed new feminamoric flag shades of blue are used to represent non-binary or genderqueer people's attraction to women, for numerous reasons (the Venus symbol is used to symbolize women, the clouds covering the planet Venus' surface are blue, and the mythological roman goddess Venus emerged from the sea when she was born). |

In the "yellow banner" non-binary version of the flag by demisexual-yuri, feuillyadeux, bizexuals, and justfolieadoit, the non-binary colors dominate the flag to show that the individual's non-binary-ness is central to the attraction and is what makes the attraction inherently non-straight. The yellow stripes at the side represent women, as Venus is seen as the "female" planet, and is yellow. |
