fragarirose attraction

⟢ a term for people who experience their romantic and/or sexual attraction as intermixing with their fragarian attraction

⟢ most people experience some fragarian attraction alongside ro/se attraction (e.g. sensual attraction, platonic attraction). the term fragarirose becomes relevant when: ⤷ neo-attractions are experienced in tandem with ro/se attraction (e.g. chivalsexual, ceduralromantic) ⤷ in discussions about queer experience where the word is useful to fill a linguistic niche ⤷ or simply when one self identifies with it! gatekeeping sucks, microlabeling for the people lol

⟢ people that experience fragarirose attraction might: ⤷ feel that large parts of their sexualities or romanticisms are replaced with fragarian attraction instead, and thus that their ro/se attraction is inseparable from their fragarian attraction ⤷ be x4x (e.g. pet4owner, mentor4student), and feel that what others might label as preference, actually leans more toward the realm of orientation for them ⤷ feel that they can't fully conceptualise ro/se attraction, and thus understand what they feel to be their own ro/se attraction through a fragarian lens ⤷ etcetera.

made with arosespec people in mind, though anyone is free (and warmly encouraged) to use if they resonate with it! coined as a gift for my sibling @skyblueskater in honour of them realising they were on that spectrum

shoutout to @strangergraphics-archive for making the divider. thank you @rwuffles for coining fragarian and rosean attraction, those were gamechanging for the queer community fr

I, uh, would like to request genderfaunan and aroace (the green + purple one) moodboards?

Happy pride! 🌈

Yeah absolutely!

Genderfaunan

Genderfaunan is an identity under the genderfaun umbrella which describes when a genderfluid person experiences neutral, unaligned and/or masculine genders. This can include feminine genders as long as they are attached to being masculine, making it androgynous, and they will never experience femininity on its own. (I found two flags, but it seems like the first one is used more. Figured I’d do both just in case.)

Aroace

Aroace — often shortened to arose — is an identity to describe when a person experiences a lack of or extremely diminished amount of both romantic and sexual attraction and desire. (There are like three versions of this flag, one of which is the well known orange and blue one, so I’ve excluded that one since you specifically wanted green and purple.)

[redtail-lol]

Is there a full/bigger version of yr pfp?? I fckn love lgballt sonas and I need to see yours for scientific purposes. /nf

Yeah and a flag guide that I'll provide but keep in mind it hasn't been updated in a while and I'll have a new one soon

Term Definitions because I can. Some definitions are personal to me and not general definitions

Woman/Girl: A gender identity that is connected to femininity and the female sex

Cisgender: Someone who's gender identity is congruent with their AGAB

Cisconfusgender: A cis person who often is unsure of their gender but always comes to the conclusion they're cisgender. I didn't coin this term but I made the flag based on a description of it

Quoieuphoric: Someone who isn't sure what gender euphoria feels like or if they feel it. I coined this term myself!

She/her/hers/herself: Someone who would appreciate if you referred to her by she/her pronouns

They/them/their/theirs/themselves: Someone who would appreciate it if you referred to them by they/them pronouns

Femme: Someone who presents femininely

Aspec: Someone on the ace, aro, or other a-spectrum(s)

Arosespec: Someone who is on both the aro and ace spectrums

Acespec: Someone who is on the asexual spectrum

Arospec: Someone who is on the aromantic spectrums

Asexual: Someone who doesn't feel sexual attraction at all (personal use definition)

Cupiosexual: Someone who doesn't feel sexual attraction but still desires a sexual relationship

Demiromantic: Someone who experiences romantic attraction exclusively to people they have formed a strong emotional bond with

Cupioromantic: Someone who desires a romantic relationship even in the absence of romantic attraction (personal use definition)

Angled Aroace: Someone who is on both aro and ace spectrums but isn't fully ace, aro, or either

Lesbian: A feminine, neutrally, xenically, or unaligned person who is attracted, usually exclusively, to other feminine, neutrally, xenically, or unaligned genders. This is a definition I came up with that I think accomplishes what the nonmen definition attempted to describe and doesn't exclude multigender/multialigned people and acknowledges the common exclusive use of today but doesn't exclude historical use. (personal use definition)

Aurora Lesbian: An all inclusive alt flag. An aurora lesbian can be considered an all inclusive lesbian

Lunian: An mspec lesbian

Bi lesbian: Someone who's bi attraction is also simultaneously lesbian attraction because it's only towards people who are considered part of lesbian attraction (personal use definition)

Sapphic: WLW, doesn't have to be exclusive.

Midnight Sapphic: A sapphic who feels othered and ostracized from the greater sapphic community for their identity

Omni lesbian: Someone who is attracted to all genders considered part of lesbian attraction (personal use definition)

Bi lesbian with bi- as a modifier: Someone who primarily identifies as a lesbian, and sees being a bi lesbian as a subset of that lesbian attraction

Neptunic lesbian: A lesbian who is also neptunic

Closeted mspec lesbian: An mspec lesbian who is closeted about being an mspec lesbian in at least one aspect of their life

Acespec Mspec Lesbian (yeah apparently it's not just the acespec lesbian flag oops): An mspec lesbian who is acespec

Neptunic: Someone who is exclusively attracted to all non-masc genders

Bi: Someone who is attracted to multiple genders. Commonly used to mean not all genders and with gender as a factor, but because of its history, it can refer to any mspec attraction

Multi: Someone who is attracted to multiple genders. An umbrella term for bi/pan/poly/omni

Mspec: Someone who is on the multispectrum

Bi-Gay: Someone who considers their attraction bi and gay (gender neutral)

Stellian: Someone who considers their attraction mspec and gay (gender neutral)

LGBTQ: Someone who is not an allocishet

Autistic: I'm not yet diagnosed and I'm working on it but I believe I am on the autism spectrum/have autism spectrum disorder. You can use person first or identity first language I don't mind either.

Queer: Someone who reclaims Queer as an identity. Not all LGBTQ people will be queer, because we should acknowledge that is has been used to harm people and they may still have trauma with the word queer.

Inclusionist: Someone who includes all good faith identities and seeks understanding before calling something nonsense.

Lykoi Lesbian: A lesbian inclusionist group that passively fights exclusionism by being inclusive.
