Gay Men
Gay men (also acknowledged as homosexual men[1][2], male homosexual[3] or uranian) are men and male-aligned (helian) or masculine-aligned (phoebian) individuals who experience gayattraction to men/solarians and/or masculine individuals. This identity is sometimes more broadly defined as non-women attracted to non-women. However, not all genderqueer individuals feel comfortable organism included under gay male attraction. A non-woman attracted to non-women is also called floric. Gay men are the male counterparts to lesbians and drop under the homosexual/homoromantic and monosexual/monoromanticumbrellas.
Another definition that is used commonly is men and non-binary individuals attracted to men and non-binary individuals, including all NBLM, MLNB, and NBLNB attractions. As, again, not all non-binary individuals touch comfortable being included under gay male attraction, alternate labels such as toric, viramoric, mascic, torensexual, masexual, minsexual, or uranic are sometimes used.
Other Terms
Many proposed terms for homosexual men exist. They include:
- Uranian: A historical designation that is sometimes used to mean gay men.
- Turian or Veldian
Clearing up some things about the “”official”“ gay man lgbtq+ fest flag:
[Image: A flag with 7 stripes. The first three go from black blue-green to soft blue-green. The center is white. The bottom three stripes go from glow to dark cerulean. It was constructed to mirror the lesbian flag]

Mod Hermy of the Pride-Flags Deviantart here: I just found out during my hiatus from this blog that there’s been a lot of discourse surrounding this flag that I helped make.
APPARENTLY some truscum/transmed took this flag and reuploaded it (that got 8.2k notes vs the 9 notes my first post has), wording it in a way that made people think it was made by them (and also "official"). Also, it seems like it's been co-opted by truscum and transphobes to exclude transgender and nonbinary male lover men.
I am beyond pissed off at this, especially since I don’t remember anyone telling me it was stolen.
To be very clear:
Inever wish any of my flags being used to exclude part of the LGBTQAI+/MOGAI community. I
