==History==
The Lith- prefix has been credited to Ian of Tumblr blog [https://stopanthropomorphizingme.tumblr.com StopAnthropomorphizingMe] for its partner (Lithromantic) and himself (Lithsexual along with stone).<ref name="01">[https://stopanthropomorphizingme.tumblr.com/post/86509419088/cisphobeofficial-stopanthropomorphizingme The coiner of Lithsexual explaining it was the coiner, and its opinion of the claim that the term is "Apropriating lesbian culture."]</ref>
Due to a claim of appropriating [[lesbian]] culture, some people have attempted to replace the term Lithsexual with Akoisexual, an alternate name coined by CisphobeOfficial on May 18, 2014.<ref>[https://cisphobeofficial.tumblr.com/post/86169342734/so-since-lith-is-potentially-appropriative-of The coining of Akoinesexual]</ref> This is due to the fact that ''Lithos'', the word Lithsexual comes from, means "stone". In the lesbian community a stone lesbian is a lesbian who is okay with being the giver of sex acts, but not with being the receiver of sex acts. Because of that "lithsexual" could potentially be interpreted as being related to this term. Ian have talked about the claims and refuted it, explaining Lith- and stone are different, similar but not the same. How it is not appropriation when it's a new term that just draws on a similar one.<ref name="01" />
