==History==
The term was possibly made with non-binary or [[genderqueer]] people in mind. However, many non-binary people prefer terms like [[minsexual]], [[mascic]], or [[masexual]] to describe this attraction, because androsexual has no agreed upon definition, which can make it's usage confusing, and it can have unfavorable connotations. The term androsexual is commonly used by transphobes as a reason to exclude [[Transgender|trans]] men because they are only attracted to "male anatomy" or "real men". Under this definition it reduces people to their genitalia,
