'''Sapphomoric''' is a term in the [[Longsword Lesbian|LsL]] [[Umbrella Term|umbrella]] for women who are exclusively attracted to other women. It was coined by @wiccanfemme on Instagram because “''bisexuals have invaded the Lesbian label and changed it to include men''”. The term excludes [https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Bi%20Lesbian bi lesbians], though [[Non-binary Lesbian|nonbinary lesbians]] are free to use it if they want to.

Sapphomoric is a term in the LsL umbrella for women who are exclusively attracted to other women. It was coined by @wiccanfemme on Instagram because “bisexuals have invaded the Lesbian label and changed it to include men”. The term excludes bi lesbians, though nonbinary lesbians are free to use it if they want to. It is an inherently exclusionary label, much like vixenamoric, and shouldn’t have been created to begin with as bi lesbians are going to continue to exist regardless of how someone feels about them. The non-problematic equivalent is trixamoric.
