    (Changed "man-aligned" to "nonbinary" so as not to misgender non-man nonbinary vincians. Also removed the bit about "exclusive attraction" as historically lesbian has not referred to exclusive attraction to women and n-bs, just attraction to women and n-bs.)

    '''Vincian''', also called '''Patroclian''' and '''Wildean''', is one of multiple terms used to describe [[gay]] men or men-aligned people. It is unclear what the exact meaning of the term was intended to be. Some people treat it as a variant of achillean (referring to any MLM attraction, exclusive or not). Some people use it as the masculine equivalent of [[lesbian]] (referring to exclusive attraction).

    The term "[[gay]]" is used as an adjective to describe homosexuality, and is also often used by the entire [[LGBTA Wiki|LGBT]] community in general. For this reason, various proposed terms for homosexual men were coined, including vincian. Some individuals also argue that "gay" should just mean homosexual men all together, due to the fact that homosexual women are referred to as lesbian. Other people simply refer to homosexual men as "gay men".
