Text: IDAHOBITA* Why do we need IDAHOBITA*? ... because there's still discrimination against people on the aro*spectrum and other queer identities. People on the romantic spectrum are, for example, affected by pathologization, infantilization, and prejudice. ... because the a*spectrums are often invisible. ... because amatonormativity and allonormativity can be problematic for persons on the a*spectrums but others as well.

Text: Amatonormativity is the socially widespread belief that all people feel romantic attraction and should maintain or at least pursue and aim for romantic relationships. According to this assumption, romantic relationships are seen as inherently more valuable than, for example, friendships, care networks, and many other non-romantic forms of relationships. Pride frogs: fictoromantic & arospike

On the top right is a small frog in the colors of the romantic flag. Text: Dehumanization People on the aromantic spectrum are often dehumanized or called inhuman because they feel little or no romantic attraction. Are aromantic people heartless, cold, or selfish? No, people on the aromantic spectrum feel a variety of different emotions and are no more or less selfish or kind than alloromantic people. Pride frogs: reciproromantic & cupioromantic

On the top right is a small frog in the colors of the romantic flag. Text: Pathologization Since romantic attraction and the desire for romantic relationships are considered a universal human experience, people on the aromantic spectrum are often perceived as "abnormal" and "deficient" Is aromanticism a consequence of trauma, mental illness, or bad experience? No! Aromanticism is a romantic orientation. It can occur with trauma, but often has nothing to do with it. Pride frogs: adexsexual (welp, adexromantic isn't a label that exists (yet), seems like an ace-frog crept in)

Can't other animals love too? Besides there are also people who are loveless. That doesn't lessen their worth or make them less human! Loveless can mean that a person ... ... doesn't use or understand the concept of love ... can't feel love ... is unsure if they experience love ... rejects the idea of experiencing love themselves Pride frogs: loveless (2 flag variants)

Text: (The sentences) "Do you want to die alone" (and) "Aren't you lonely" (crossed out with a red line) Is that so? Why would I be alone? I'm surrounded by people (who are important to me) when I choose to be. I can have friends, queerplatonic partners, relationships, sex dates, cuddle dates, and more. Or perhaps I'm satisfied being by myself. Besides being alone isn't the same as being lonely! Pride frog: aroflux

Text: (The sentence) "You're never gonna be happy" (crossed out with a red line) Is that so? Ever talked with friends into morning hours? Ever ate a huge bowl of ice cream with sprinkles? There are so many things that can make us happy: Friends, (chosen) family, animals, hobbies and so much more. Why link happiness only to romantic partners? Pride frogs: autoromantic & desinoromantic

There is a frog in the colors of the aroace flag at the top right corner and one in the colors of the oriented aroace flag at the top right. Text: (The sentence) "You'll find the right one eventually" (crossed out with a red line) Is that so? How do you know I'm even looking for a partner? Who says there is only one right person for everyone? Not every pot needs, seeks or desires a lid. And even the supposedly right ones won't miraculously conjure up attraction. If they do, that's how it is, but right now romantic fits. Pride frogs: aroace & frayromantic

Text: (The sentence) "Do not close yourself off from love" (crossed out with a red line) Is that so? How can I close myself off from something I don't feel in the first place or maybe don't understand? What about my feelings towards friends, (chosen) family, and animals? I value my bonds with those people and that's all I need (right now). Pride frogs: aegoromantic & quoiromantic

There is a frog in the colors of the alloaro flag in the top right corner. Text: (The sentence) "Sex without love is selfish" (crossed out with a red line) Is that so? Why would it be selfish to have fun with others, or give pleasure to each other, just because we're not in a romantic relationship or don't feel love for each other? We might be connected by feelings other than love. And as long as everything is consensual, there shouldn't be any problems with that. Pride frog: alloaro
