The word [heterophile] is an alternative to the word for heterosexual.
The term heterophile came about after the Church Of England started to use the term [homophile] for homosexuals in 1991.
The term heterophile and homophile is rarely used, as some claim that when the word is spoken aloud it sounds similar to [pedofile].
