Neptunic or nomascsexual is the attraction to women, feminine non-binary individuals, and neutral non-binary individuals. It can also be described as attraction to all genders except men and/or man-aligned/masculine-aligned non-binary individuals. This orientation is mostly used by non-binary individuals to describe their attraction without relying on the gender binary, but can be used by anyone. The term can be used as an identity on its own or combined with other orientations.

Similar terms include trixensexual, trixic, venusic, nomasexual, and nominsexual. The mascic/nofemaric equivalent to neptunic is uranic. The enboric/noboric equivalent is saturnic.
