The term can be used as a modifier combined with other identities to specify that one prioritizes their attraction to and relationships with other men/enbys. It may also be used as an identity on its own and may be particularly useful for individuals who know they are attracted to men/enbys but may be uncertain if they are attracted to other genders. It can also be used to describe a relationship between the same/similar gender.
It can be used as the non-exclusive counterpart to vincian. Vincian and achillean are the men-loving-men counterpart to [[turian]] and [[floric]].
