'''Vixenamoric''' is a term used by lesbians who feel like the identity 'lesbian' no longer suits their attraction. This is due to the large amount of nonwomen identifying with the term (whereas the term feminamoric is for nblw exclusively attracted individuals). The term is for people who identify as women (who use she/her pronouns) and are exclusively attracted to people who are women. |

The term faced controversy, as nonbinary 'lesbians' claimed the label was exclusive and transphobic. This is however not the case - as vixenamoric includes anyone who identifies as a woman (no matter their agab) as long as they are exclusively attracted to other women. |

Vixenamorics exclude [[Pronoun Non-Conforming|PNC]] lesbians in the belief that [[pronouns]] equal [[gender]], and that the term "lesbian" is only applicable to she/her [[binary]] women who are attracted to other she/her binary women. While this is already reductive considering the rich history of [[GNC|gender nonconformity]] and experimentation in the lesbian community, there are also many languages that lack gender-specific pronouns. |

Vixenamoric safe spaces were flooded with negativity and hatred. This is due to the opinion that it is an 'exclus label' - and it is mainly associated with the discourse and exclus community. |

Vixenamoric is a term used by longsword lesbians (exclusionary lesbians) who feel the label "lesbian" has been "watered down too much" by the existence of non-binary and pronoun non-conforming lesbians.[1] A similar term is sapphomoric.
It was coined by Twitter users @ssapphrodite and @viixenyy.[2][3]
Vixenamorics exclude PNC lesbians in the belief that pronouns equal gender, and that the term "lesbian" is only applicable to she/her binary women who are attracted to other she/her binary women. While this is already reductive considering the rich history of gender nonconformity and experimentation in the lesbian community, there are also many languages that lack gender-specific pronouns.
Some have attempted to reclaim the term to refer to binary women attracted to binary women. However, a pre-existing non-problematic alternative to vixenamoric is trixamoric.
In September 2020, one of the creators of the vixenamoric label came out as agender and announced he would go by he/him pronouns. He disowned the vixenamoric label and, as of November 2020, has spoken out against the term and describes why he thinks it is wrong.
The gay male counterpart is todamoric.
Identities Excluded
