The first usage of the term, alongside feminamoric, was in an anonymous tumblr ask to Tumblr user Marlowelune in May 12, 2017.<ref>{{Archive|Site=today|URL=https://marlowelune.tumblr.com/post/160601325244/this-is-kinda-late-but-re-words-meaning-nb-into}}</ref> A follow up definition also sent anonymously was posted on the same day.<ref>{{Archive|Site=today|URL=https://marlowelune.tumblr.com/post/160603205784/im-actually-gonna-cry-theres-finally-a-term-for}}</ref>
The term is styled after diamoric and comes from the Latin words ''femina'', meaning "woman", and ''amor'', meaning "love".

The original and most commonly used flag, designed by Milith Rusignuolo, has 5 stripes: maroon, white, pink, white, olive green. It was based off of the Diamoric and Genderqueer flags, as well as the traditional female and male colours.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20170619010107/https://avia-viridis.neocities.org/sof/femi.html</ref><ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20180210192310/https://avia-viridis.neocities.org/flags.html</ref>

In several proposed new feminamoric flag shades of blue are used to represent non-binary or genderqueer people's attraction to women, for numerous reasons (the Venus symbol is used to symbolize women, the clouds covering the planet Venus' surface are blue, and the mythological roman goddess Venus emerged from the sea when she was born).▼

In the "yellow banner" non-binary version of the flag by demisexual-yuri, feuillyadeux, bizexuals, and justfolieadoit, the non-binary colors dominate the flag to show that the individual's non-binary-ness is central to the attraction and is what makes the attraction inherently non-straight. The yellow stripes at the side represent women, as Venus is seen as the "female" planet, and is yellow.
