Queerotic/Queeroticism/QE: A form of queerplatonic/alterous (attraction and/or relationship) that has significant erotic, sexual, or sensual components. It is an alterous, erotic emotional bond, and the erotic aspects of the relationship/attraction feel tied into the emotional aspects. While not necessary, queerotic relationships often use eroticism as a way to express emotional bonds, and not just for sexual attraction/satisfaction. A queerotic partner/relationship is called a QEP/QER for short, but individuals may also use QPP/QPR (queerotic and queerplatonic attraction/relationships are not mutually exclusive in any way and overlap).
Based off of one of the queerplatonic flags, but with adjustments to suit the term.
The green heart represents aromantic love and attraction, alloaros, and the concept of a non-romantic erotic and emotional bond. It's also a color used in the autoerotic and homoerotic flags. The darker green stripe represents arospecs in general.
Pink represents queerness, as one of the colors associated with queerplatonic. Yellow is also associated with QP, representing the platonic part, but I didn't use it in order to distance the term from platonic for apl folx like me who may feel weird about queerplatonic having the word "platonic" in it. It's also used in the autoerotic and homoerotic flags, represented here as a deeper shade.
Gray represents lack of “traditional” romantic attraction/romantic aspects of a relationship, including arospecs who are grayromantic and queerotic relationships that have some romantic component (like a wavership or semiship).
This term can be used by anyone but it's made with alloaros and aplatonics in mind, especially those who feel that their sexual and alterous/QP orientations/attraction are tied to one another, as opposed to being entirely split from one another.
