Vixenamoric is a term for strictly women loving women. It was coined by Twitter users @ssapphrodite and @viixenyy to "distance lesbians attracted exclusively to femininity from non-binary, he/him and they/them lesbians"[1]. The reason this label was created was because of the claim that "lesbian" meant "non-men attracted to non-men", instead of it meaning "woman exclusively attrracted to women/gay woman". Many women felt that this made the term "lesbian" not apply to them anymore, as they were exclusively attracted to women specifically; not "non men".
The label in itself is harmless, as it is simply used to describe a gay woman's exclusive attraction to women. The label includes both cisgender and transgender women.
Those who have a problem with this label might have homophobic tendencies, as they might have a problem accepting the idea of exclusive same gender/sex attraction. Along with this, they may also have misogynistic tendencies, as they may have a problem with women specifically experiencing said exclusive same gender/sex attraction.
