Aro(spec) Experiences with the Queer Community

hiii if you are aromantic/arospec and can take a bit of time to answer some questions about your experiences in the wider queer community, i'd really appreciate it. & if you are alloro please spread this around anyways!

What if we invaded Europe together and formed the AroAce Spec Empire?

One can dream... 😔

BorealAqua Lesbian

BorealAqua Lesbian, Boreal Lesbian, Aqua Lesbian, or simply B.A. Lesbian is a term for lesbians who don't seek/prioritize neither sexual or romantic relationships. BorealAqua Lesbians might, or might not, want other unique types of relationships with other non-men, like QPRs, for example.

The violet and the lavender tint covering the heart were chosen because of the history surrounding these colours, like the lavender movement or the violets used by lesbians to show interest to each another. Violet means lesbian culture.

The cyan was chosen out of the aroace culture of using, not only purple and green, but also blue and cyan. You can see the blue and/or cyan on some aroace, oriented aroace, demirose, etc. flags, and I used this detail on this flag. You can tell I valued the cyan aspect more than blue, but it's because the colours would be too equal, imp. But the purpose is still the same. Cyan means lack of both romantic and sexual attraction/lack of interest in romantic and sexual relationships.

The gradient means two things: 1- Diversity in the lesbian community; From the butch women to the genderqueer lesbians, from the white lesbians to the lesbians of colour of cultural genders, and others. And 2- The many different and unique relationships that are not exclusively romantic or sexual.

The upside down heart means lesbians who don't seek/don't have/are not in relationships for any reason; Trauma, unable to get a relationship, or simply is not comfortable with being inside a relationship. This last one might seem controversial, but no one is in anyone's heart, everyone is crazy, and lesbians who are only capable of aesthetic attraction are not less lesbian. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Anyways, I hope y'all liked this flag. I really liked the idea of the Bambi Lesbian and the Aphrodite Lesbian and I decided to do something that has the best of both terms. Babaii! XP

A new Aro/Ace flag I made for people who experience NO sexual and romantic attraction at all. It is not made to replace anything, but to add more representation for people who don't feel comfortable using the sunset Aro/Ace flag, or any other Aro/Ace flag that doesn't represent them well. Black stands for Asexuality, Green stands for aromantic, White stands for safety and inclusivity, Purple stands for Community, and the final black stands for Absence of Romantic love.
