I have a lot of love for aro ppl tonight
Getting out ahead of it this year! Check out @aromantic-official
lmao i remember when i was like about 10-11 years old i cut out paper hearts and gave them to all my classmates on valentine...
This was obviously before I knew I was aromantic but I was just thought it was complete bullsh!t and didn't want anyone to feel bad, so I just did that I guess.
But turns out only my teacher appreciated it so that was kinda sad...
aro culture is sending your best friend a valentine's gift to spite the amatonormativity
.
Y'ALL HAPPY AROSPEC AWARENESS WEEK!
Being on the aromantic spectrum means that you experience little to no romantic attraction.
The term aromantic can be used as an umbrella term for all arospec identities:
Aromantic
Greyromantic
Demiromantic
Frayromantic
Aroflux
Arospike
Lithromantic
Quoiromantic
Cupioromantic
And many more...
For more informantion about these identities:

Arospec people can still be in a romantic relationship or in a queerplatonic relationship or in a sexual relationship or honestly whatever sort of relationship they choose to be in, all of these can be with 1 or multiple partners but they can also do none of those things.
A common misconception is that aromantic people also "have" to be asexual, this is not true. Being aromantic has nothing to do with your sexual orientation so arospec people can still basically be any sexuality.
For example: aro lesbian, aro gay, aro bisexual, aro ace, aro pansexual, aro omnisexual, aro heterosexual, aro polysexual...
This does not mean that allosexual aromantics are sex obsessed or sex addicts!
They can be but being aromantic doesn't equal sex addict.
Aromantic people can be:
- romance repulsed
-romance neutral
-romance favorable
And to finish it I would to remind everyone that:
Arospec ppl are part of the lgbtqiAp+ community!!!
🌈 It's okay to be romance repulsed.
💛 Being romance repulsed doesn't make you heartless or evil.
🐥 Romance is not the height of human connection, and romance repulsed people aren't "missing out."
🌻 We all have different ways of relating to people, especially those we care about, and that's okay.
☀️ Romance repulsed people don't need to change. They're perfect as they are.
⚡Romance repulsed people's boundaries, especially around romantic topics, deserve to and need to be respected.
🌙 Amatonormativity is an extremely prevelant construct in our society, and it hurts those who are romance repulsed.
⭐ Romance repulsed people are important members of the LGBTQ+ community, and deserve much more recognition than they receive.
🍋 Romance repulsed people are valid no matter their orientation, whether they're aro, demiro, grayro, apothiro, or any other orientation.
🌈 Having pride is for romance repulsed people too, and it's important to support and uplift the pride of romance repulsed people.
