@radiomogai

The indigo on both flags is from the loveless aspec flag

Gradient of first flag inspired by afamspec flag (link) by @felignis

Blue on the alt flag isn't really for anything, I just wanted it to be similar to the arospec and acespec flags but still visually distinct

Ananthrolove

[PT: Ananthrolove. End PT.]

Ananthrolove: Simply put, when one does not feel "love" for people, or finds that the word "love" is not applicable/accurate, but does love any number of non-people things. For example: concepts, music, smells, pets, hobbies, other emotional experiences not involving people, etc.

Obviously lovelessness is a spectrum, and so the Nuanced definition is "when one does not love, no longer loves, or conditionally loves people, but this does not apply, or applies to a significantly lesser degree, to non-people things."

It may also result in one feeling disconnected from the people-related aspect of an experience. For example, one loves making art, but does not love sharing art with others.

This can be a result of bad experiences, neurodivergency, other things, or a result of nothing in particular.

Anyone can use flag anywhere idc

Color meanings under cut, plus some "People" nuance.

@radiomogai

Dark brown to tan on the bottom to represent different degrees of people-oriented love.

The middle dark purple and grey stripes represent lovelessness.

Purplish-blue/periwinkle at the top to represent non-person-oriented love being felt more, prioritized more, or less confusing than people-oriented love. The different shades also represent degrees of lovingness/lovelessness.

When I say "people" here, I am including alterhumans/nonhumans (I myself am so). They must be divorced from personhood to count as not people, so conceptkin/etc are people under this definition. I don't really have a good qualifier for what "people" is; that's a bit of a tough ask. General society. Maybe things that can't reciprocate, but then pets are on thin ice. So it's some combination of those things to any reasonable mind.
