#Aplatonic Visibility Day

[papercranesandpride]

Happy aplatonic visibility day! Here are some reminders!

Not everyone feels platonic attraction

Not everyone has or wants friends

Aplatonics can still be social (I'm extremely social), but also a lot of us just don't have the same socialization needs as alloplatonics. If your first question for aplatonics is "how do you fulfill the need for socialization without friends?" please consider why you think that's something that everyone needs

Conversations and interactions with strangers and acquaintances can be just as meaningful and fulfilling as those with friends

Friendship, like any relationship, should require explicit consent and a conversation. Don't start referring to people as friends without discussing it first

Friend and bestie are not casual terms to say to anyone; ask for consent before you use them

Platonic does not mean non-romantic. It specifically refers to relationships between friends. If you want to say something without romantic intent, say you mean it non-romantically

Aspec means more than just aro and/or ace. Atertiaries are here too. That doesn't just mean aplatonics, but also afamilials, asensuals, anaesthetics/nonaesthetics, etc

Not all aspecs value friendship above all. Not all aspecs want QPRs

Not all aplatonics are aromantic. Not all aplatonics are loveless. Not all aplatonics are asexual. Not all aplatonics are afamilial

Anyway, have a lovely day my fellow apples! Don't forget that you can't commit crimes today without being caught

Just a reminder to everyone that aplatonic visibility day is tomorrow! Aplatonics are so often erased and overlooked as a part of the aspec community. Tomorrow is a day dedicated to aplatonic pride for that reason. If you can, do something that day to spread awareness or show support. It means a lot.

happy aplatonic visibility day reminder that someone not having friends is a completely neutral trait it doesn't make them inherently sad or evil or heartless or anything

First aspec pride poll of the month!

(for poll purposes pick the label you identify with most)

Sorry if the aspec abbreviations on some are weird. I had to make some up.

Happy pride month to my fellow aspecs! Remember that your attraction/lack of attraction is just as valid as anyone else!

As always reblog to spread <3

Happy aplatonic visibility day to all my fellow apls! Make some noise today, and be proud of your aplatonicism. We're a valuable part of the aspec and queer communities, and we deserve respect and recognition just as much as any other aspec/queer identity.

in case you didn't know already. aplatonic people are actually cool as fuck.

happy aplatonic visibility day to aplatonics with friends, aplatonics who don’t want friends, aplatonics who don’t like their friends, aplatonics who want friends, aplatonics without friends, aplatonics who love talking about their aplatonicism, aplatonics who are super social, aplatonics with personality disorders, aplatonics with low empathy, mean aplatonics, cruel aplatonics, autistic aplatonics

Happy aplatonic visibility day to aplatonic alterhumans/nonhumans! Whether you’re a bird, cat, dog, dragon, fish, elf, or fictional character, whether you’re plato favorable, plato repulsed, or plato indifferent, whether you’re grayplatonic, demiplatonic, apothiplatonic, quoiplatonic, or aegoplatonic, you are welcome to celebrate this day!

All aplatonic alterhumans/nonhumans, I hope you enjoy today!

Shoutout to aplatonic objectums on this aplatonic visibility day!

It’s okay to not be platonically attracted to humans, or to not want any friends besides your objects.

It’s okay to not be platonically attracted to your objects, and to want them in a different way than a friendship.

It’s okay to be the “loner who can’t connect with people” stereotype of the objectum community.

Aplatonic objectums are wonderful. I wish a good aplatonic visibility day to all aplatonics.

Happy Aplatonic visibility day!!!!

We haven't been great about including apl folx in the queer(and even aspec) conversations and I think today is a reminder of what we should work to change. My apl folx, y'all are valid and queer as it gets! And I hope y'all have the best day today!

Edit: fixed the typos 🥲

Wishing a very happy aplatonic visibility day to non-SAM aplatonics! You are an important part of both the aplatonic community and the non-SAM community! Keep being your fabulous self!

Happy Aplatonic Visibility Day! Wooo!

Go shine in all your aplatonic glory!

I need Aplatonic Infographic Ideas!

Following an extremely annoying conflict I had in the comments of an aplatonic post on @aspec-vents, I think people need help understanding the aplatonic experience and what platonic attraction/feelings actually are, and what it means to not have them

Send in your asks, comments, or reblogs for your questions for aplatonics or your aplatonic experience/what aplatonic means to you!
