== Etymology == |
|||
The term was inspired by the name of the African river goddess [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oshun Oshun]. She is an important deity in Yoruba spirituality. She was the only goddess of all 17 gods sent to populate the Earth, and the only one to succeed. She is considered one of the most powerful gods and is associated with water, purity, fertility, love, and sensuality. |
|||
== History == |
|||
The term was coined by Twitter user @mochamoons. It was created because black wlw and nblw felt excluded from the sapphic label, noticing that it was dominated by white people and wanted a label that was their own and they felt a connection to. |
