in 2026 be nicer to aroallos
similar to many other subtypes of aphobia, aroallophobia is derived from the socially dominant purity culture of amatonormativity and sex negativity, dictating that sex can only be justified in monogamous, marital, romantic relationships, but that having those relationships is mandatory. this is worth mentioning to emphasize that aroallos' fellow queer siblings did not invent aroallophobia, but most likely grew up in a culture that instilled it; i.e., some queer people have done the work to unlearn said amatonormativity, sex negativity, and aroallophobia, but others have not, so they continue to perpetuate it. in 2026, take it upon yourself to listen to aroallo people's experiences (here's a good starting post) (and this one too, but with a TW for rape mention). unlearn aroallophobia just like anyone growing up in homophobic society would need to unlearn homophobia.
