happy aromantic awareness week! 💚🤍🩶🖤
aromantic is an orientation where one feels little to no romantic attraction to others. Romantic attraction is the desire to be in a romantic relationship or perform romantic acts with someone. Aromantics express their love in various ways such as platonic relationships. There isn't one way to be aromantic, so the label encompasses various identities and individual feelings
Aromanticism, the hidden ‘A’ in LGTBIQA+
The ‘A’ in LGTBIQA+ stands for asexuality or people on the asexual spectrum (ACE). Although there is still a great deal of ignorance about asexuality, even within the LGTBIQA+ community, it is even less well known that the ‘A’ also stands for aromanticism or people on the aromantic spectrum (aro). Perhaps it would be better to use LGBTIQAA+ to make aromanticism visible, as it remains hidden behind asexuality. And if there is confusion about what asexuality is, there is even more confusion about what aromanticism is. What does it mean to be an aro (aromantic) person?
I am writing this article as an aroace person, that is, as an aromantic and asexual person. I am also a non-binary person, and I do not believe this is a coincidence. Many non-binary people are also asexual and/or aromantic. And vice versa: many asexual and/or aromantic people do not identify within the gender binary.

Hola comunidad #aroace y #arromantica. Este 14 de febrero suelen darle algo a sus amigues? Yo solía hornearle una galletas a mi mejor amiga y digo solía porque últimamente me da pereza hornear 😅.
Remember to use high traction footwear is slippery conditions.
I just learned that some aspec circles use “-rose” as a suffix to denote romanticism and sexuality, combining their first syllables, “ro” and “se.” Of course, my Dragon Ball-loving brain reads that as “Rosé,” like Super Saiyan Rosé. Super Saiyan Aegorosé.
Aro_Ace Treffen February - Für Menschen am aromantischen und_oder asexuellen Spektrum
14. Februar 2026, 13:00:00 CET - GMT+1 - Die Kometin (Kulturverein), 8010, Graz, Österreichhttps://events.graz.social/events/ffeac6ee-063c-4bc7-87b4-7ed8e837853c
Może i lepiej, że nie mam przyjaźni i tego typu, bo potem jako aroace z ASD i fobią społeczną musiałabym się użerać z ludźmi co nagle coś, by do mnie poczuli... A ja raczej nie jestem taka łagodna w takich sytuacjach...
Poważnie, relacje z ludźmi co nie są rodziną lub nawet zwierzętami, mogą cię mocno uwięzić w tym bagnie...
I tak, jak ktoś mi wyznawał "Zauroczenie" to uznawałam, że ze mnie drwi i raczej to chyba była najlepsza droga...
Aroace to w sumie limbo bez końca… Z jednej strony inne osonby queer cię wykluczają (A niektóre dosłownie chcą "Leczenia" osób aseksualnych co robiono w przeszłości z osobami homoseksualnymi), a z drugiej strony, hetero patrzy na ciebie jak na życiową porażkę
W sumie, tak wygląda życie aroace… Wszystko do bani, bo wspierasz osoby queer, ale traktują cię jak gówno i nie uznają ciebie za swoją część… Po prostu jesteś częścią, ale traktują cię jak kamień w bucie niż ich część społeczności :blobfoxannoyed:
Po prostu limbo, nie ma miejsca dla takich jak ty, chyba że tylko w małej grupie innych osób aroace/aseksualnych/aromatycznych, ale dla innych osób queer jesteś odpadem i niczym więcej, nie chcą cię i widzą ciebie tylko jako problem
Dosłownie możesz wkładać wszystko dla reszty, ale oni nic nie zrobią nic dla ciebie, bo ciebie nie uznają za swoją część… W ich oczach jesteś cis hetero, więc jesteś zagrożeniem…
Ended up rewatching JaidenAnimations' video about being #Aromantic and #Asexual.
If either of those topics don't make sense to you or you just don't "get" them, I recommend watching her video.
Even if you do, it's still a good intro into what it's like to grow up feeling that way without understanding everyone didn't feel like you.
I don't like the term sex repulsed. I'm not repulsed. I can hang out at an orgy and just do a little "parallel play." As they are all fucking and I read a book and occasionally chat with naked ppl around the snack table. I've never felt so ok being around sexual activities and being included without needing to do anything I don't want. It's so nice to have a polite chat about somebody's fetish & their arts and crafts but not have that taken for a reason I am totally a freak and I'm so into that.
The allosexuals who get cold feet arguing in the couple rooms are more repulsed by sex than me. They have so many weird hangups. Many of them resent their eyeballs being exposed to any too ugly fat hairy naked people but will also resent their partner is exposed to anyone too pretty.
It honestly seems a very *allosexual* thing to assume *repulsion* is the reason I wouldn't ever fuck anyone. I get that some aces will feel that way, that's valid and everything. but sex indifferent doesn't really seem to sufficiently stress that I'm not gonna fuck you.
then again, what does? does anything, ever get people to stop trying to fuck me?
they're concerned I'm insecure about my body. but I'm so not. I'm so tired. I know people like my body and my face. I know this and maybe the hopes I will sit thru their favorite show are the only criteria. They will NOT stop telling me I'm hot, pretty, sexy, etc unless I tell them to quit multiple times and get irritable about it.
I can tell many people who bother me with their attractions are just completely starved for attention so like, why would their desires be validating?? Just shut up. If you are really that lonely, shut the fuck up about how hot I am. I might talk to you and be a friend to you if I don't think you're still trying to flirt.
La pareja arromática da una explicación reveladora de lo que significa para ellos la intimidad y el romance.
En una sociedad atascada con programas televisados de citas y bodas de celebridades, para algunos puede ser difícil imaginar una existencia puramente platónica.
Pero para aquellos que son arromáticos, un individuo que experimenta poca o ninguna atracción romántica hacia los demás, esta es una realidad diaria.
Cuando las personas reciben críticas de propuestas de boda dignas de Instagram y cualquier cosa escrita por Nora Ephron a diario, la presión para expresar el romance de cierta manera puede ser agotador .
El amor romántico es solo un sabor de amor, y las personas arromáticas experimentan lazos de uno y respeto con quien elijan.

I have really enjoyed the first two books by Cedar McCloud in the Eternal Library #QueerFiction series. When I saw the third book The Flame that Sings was looking for backers, I jumped on the opportunity for some special editions. They finally arrived today, and they are incredible. The packaging is thoughtful, the hardcovers are beautiful. But the thing that has me crying is the hand-painted designs on the edges of the pages. My photos can't do it justice.
The first two books have great #AroAce and #QueerPlatonic representation. Today is a snowy cozy day perfect for diving into the newest book.

Hype for the Future 65B: Nantucket, a Queer Haven, Town, County, and Island
Introduction The Town of Nantucket is the sole town in the consolidated town-county arrangement of Nantucket County, Massachusetts.
