Mono-spec (mono- spectrum): an umbrella term for identities related to experiencing attraction to one gender [plus affection/relationships involving one gender].
The spectrum includes those who are exclusively attracted to sole one singular gender only (suptilic), and those who are fluid (i.e. abro-, novo-, amplusic), multioriented/centrioriented, varioriented/variangled, also mspec (multispec), cupiospec, orchidspec, or otherwise a-spec (e.g. arospec, acespec, aplspec, etc.) [along with other possible combinations].
For example, someone who is both gay and bi could consider their homo attraction as monospec. Lesbihets/straightbians could be monospec as a result of being multigender/genderfluid (could be a form of novosexuality). Anattractional viramorics or feminamorics could be monospec because of their affection or relationships, instead of their lack of attraction.
Mono-spec / monoattractional spectrum - An umbrella term for those who experience only one form of allo attraction. They may experience other types of attraction on a-spectrums.
Tulipian! An inclusive term for all folks who are m-spec, mono-spec, and a-spec. This could be because a they’re abro-, because they’re is varioriented/use the SAM, or because they simply identify with terms from all three spectrums.
For example, a pan vincian aroace person like myself could be tulipian.

describes those who might experience more than one form of attraction, but only one form of allo-attraction
Mono-spec Flag:
Mono-spec (or monoattractional spectrum) comes from the term, monoattraction. Monoattraction is used to describe people who exclusively experience one form of attraction, while mono-spec describes anyone who is a-spec and only has one form of allo-attraction. For example, one might be aceflux, greyromantic, aplatonic, and frayaesthetic, while also being bisensual (which is a form of allo-attraction). Mono-spec can also be called monospec.
Femboric or fenboric: an umbrella term for those attracted to women and non-binary people; being both femaric and enboric.
This includes trixenamorics, neptunics, mestric lesbians/darcians/feminamorics, pansexuals, panromantics, nomasexuals, nomaromantics, variangled people, and more, for example.
Not every femboric consider themself to be mspec, it depends on the person. Also, this doesn't mean essentially that they are attracted to binary women or every form of nonbinary.
