Aphysvagueflux, Aemovagueflux, Anattvagueflux/Avagueflux

(using these aphys and aemo flags)

aspec vagueflux are fluctuating a-spec orientations influenced partially or fully by one’s neurodivergence. For example, if a mood disorder's symptoms influences one’s level of sexual attraction and also potentially how they experience it. A mix avague and aflux experiences of attraction(ace used as an example).

Also for the ones that cover multiple attractions, the fluctuation doesn't need to match up. For example someone who's aphysvagueflux, experiencing none of the physical side to sexual attraction while being graysensual and alloaesthetic.

(Made these for me, thought others might fuck with them also. -v)

(Also looks like someone else already made Acevagueflux and Arovagueflux, oops)

Alright, obligatory FAQ!

I'm still questioning technically, but this is my current list:

Sex-Favourable Graysexual / Cupiosexual, Romance-Oscillating Aromantic / Quoiromantic / Aegofictoromantic, Grayplatonic, Graysensual, Cassfamilial, Panaesthetic / Panalterous Agender, Librafeminine / Lunarian, Genderqueer Queer, Ambiamorous, Solo Polyamory / QPR Arolovic, Lovequeer, Lovepunk / Amatopunk / Cupiopunk Any Pronouns (🥰: Ze/Zer/Zir/Zirs/Zemself), Mx. / M. / M*

I'm not completely out to my family, but they are the only ones that know I'm queer (I told them I was Bi). So obviously I'm not publicly out either, but I'm also not completely in hiding.

Feel free to introduce yourself with your pronouns.

I'm an Intersectional Feminist, and my feminism includes Men's Issues as well. I try not to be a misandrist, but I have a tendency to lean that way. In good faith, feel free to call me out. Gotta be better than our elders right?

I'm Child-free and Marriage-free, though I don't necessarily dislike children or the concept of marriage. I actively dislike the focus on marriage in the social and governmental sphere though.

I usually say I'm an Atheist or Agnostic Atheist but I've come to realize I might be more of a Spiritualist. I wouldn't say I'm "Anti-Religious" but I definitely have a so-so relationship with most religions. I don't believe in any God(s), take stock in any scripture or care for organized religion but I'm a big believer in the possibility of the Supernatural. I also believe in Fate/Destiny; that your end goal is where you are meant to be and is a place you like being in. I have a peculiar fascination with the Pagan Triquetra, mostly as a symbol of balance. I love the idea about "threes" which corresponds with my long-time belief in the "black", "white" and "gray" of reality. There is so much nuance. Existence is absolutely a lot more "magical" than most people feel comfortable enough to believe in.

There is absolutely life out there in the cosmos, a belief I don't consider "supernatural" nor do I consider much of a "belief". I'm not self centered enough to think Humans are that special or unique. I really don't believe in any "alien abduction" or "gray alien" stories though, those don't seem right.

[aromantisk-fagforening]

the song is the gun song btw.

anyway, I think actually aroace grayapl who experiences social/intellectual attraction (sorta like platonic attraction but less about friendship/any relationship and more conversation) and some (rare) sensual attraction (sorta like sexual attraction, but not quite) might fit me best.

I used those for a bit before, but felt out of place in oriented aroace spaces because I'm romance repulsed, so wanting to blur the lines there isn't my thing, I also don't experience altrous attraction or queerplatonic attraction, and like the sort of infatuation I sometimes get the impression of there

so yeah

(green-stripe/strictly) aromantic, (mostly) asexual, (dark gray) graysensual, allosocial, (light gray) grayplatonic

I don't really think I experience sexual attraction, but the whole sensual attraction thing makes that kinda blurry.

and not that important really, but I don't define hugs as a part of sensual attraction, it's a part of platonic attraction/friendships. nor do I count handholding as sensual, that's more PDA and romantic to me (aka I don't touch it (ba dum tch)).

contemplating going back to the label non-SAM aro.

or just "aro" without really saying non-sam or aroace or aroallo.

I keep doubting my asexuality. Idk if that's because I'm not asexual or because I don't want to admit that I'm asexual. or maybe it's just something else.

on the other hand I could try to seek out more asexual content.

it feels like everything asexual I see is either alloace (which - wow I've never related less) or it's like, puritanical, sex negative. or it's like oriented aroace. I am not looking for people to talk about their atetriary crushes when I look up my lack of crushes tbh. I don't get any type of crushes. I don't feel seen when I look up asexuality.

no hate to any of those asexuals obviously. I'm just not like them. I was looking for someone like me (and that's when CSH comes in with that "and I hate myself for it")

[demisensuality]

I just sent this in but I'll also post it here as well @staff

I think the term "sensual attraction" should be allowed to be tagged. At the moment it is not and this makes it very difficult to talk about this topic which is a subset of asexuality and aromanticism. It means that one has a desire to hug or hold hands or cuddle with someone. As a community, we are unable to talk about this form of attraction, one of the few forms of attraction some people can feel at all. And I believe we deserve a space to talk about it on tumblr.

Anattractional seems so extreme... Is there something like Gray Anattractional?

I feel gray in most attractions

.

Anyways, yeah long post. Figured I'd just put all these sublabels on the same post so I can easily copy and past definitions lmao. Also likely coining terms here like "Alloasen" is one since I don't really see people using other terms like Alloace and Alloaro for the other forms of attraction really ever. Idk if I'll ever make flags for terms like Alloafa or Alapl, since this post was already a lot lol.

These aren't the only Al sublabels possible, these are just the "main" kinda of attraction in my head where I know what colors to use for. Feel free to request other attraction terms like Social, Xenial, etc in the future when I have requests open, or make your own.
