A contact increased in contact reliability by accommodating misalignment from a mating contact. A female-side contact includes a contact body including a contact portion that is brought into contact with a mating contact portion of a male-side contact, and a supporting member formed separate from the contact body, for receiving therein the mating contact portion and movably supporting the contact portion. The supporting member includes a supporting member body for receiving therein the mating contact portion and the contact portion, and first and second spring portions provided on the supporting member body, for bringing the mating contact portion inserted in the supporting member body and the contact portion into contact with each other. The contact portion includes a contact portion body having a flat plate shape and contact point portions protruding from the contact portion body into the inside of the supporting member body.
