Are you sure those are actual words? I couldn't find them in any dictionary besides Urban dictionary.

They are equivalent to ‘androphilic’ and ‘gynophilic’, but they are more commonly used when discussing sexual identities than these. ‘Androphilic’ is more commonly used to describe animals (like mosquitos or ticks) that go for humans rather than other species of animals, but that is unrelated to this question.
