'''Achillean''', also known as '''men loving men''' ('''MLM'''), '''apollian,''' '''chaeronean,''' and '''chaeronic''', refers to a man or [[masculine]]-aligned person who is attracted to other men or men-aligned people. One may or may not be attracted to other genders as well. This attraction does not need to be exclusive, as the label is used in a way to unify all men who love other men, including [[gay]] ([[vincian]]) men, [[bisexual]] men, [[pansexual]] men, [[omnisexual]] men, and others, promoting solidarity among men of all identities.
The [[feminine]] counterpart to achillean is [[sapphic]]. The [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] counterparts are [[diamoric]] and [[enbian]].
== History ==
The word achillean has historically been used to describe things relating to the mythological figure Achilles. The first instance of achillean being used in the context of men attracted to men is likely a 2016 post by Tumblr user Asculan.<ref>http://archive.is/c3Rag</ref>
