'''Vincian''',''' '''also called '''Patroclian''' and '''Wildean''', is one of multiple terms used to describe [[gay]] men and/or non-binary people attracted to men (exclusively or not). It is also sometimes used as a variant of [[achillean]]. The term is meant to be a masculine equivalent of [[lesbian]]. 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.
==Etymology==
The term vincian was coined in honor of Leonardo da Vinci, who was an Italian polymath of the Renaissance. He was thought to be involved in various homosexual relationships, although no one can prove it. This man is most famous for his painting of Mona Lisa.[[File:C1c31a6a5cb184159f0a6bbcd465c9b8.jpg|thumb|220x220px|An Older Vincian Flag]]
