What’s aromanticsm? Did you ever hear the word aromantic? Are you interested in learning more?”

Sharepic with a globe in the colors of the aromantic flag in the background. An arrowhead in the same colors is in front of it. In the upper right is a frog in the colors of the aro flag. Text: Aromantic (aro) is a romantic orientation and describes an experience that differs from the norm concerning romance and/or romantic relationships. This can involve e.g. (completely/temporarily/nearly entirely/…) non-existent romantic attraction and the (nearly) non-existent desire for romantic relationships and romantically connotated interactions. 1/3 aromanticspectrumday.net The link to the website is printed in green.

Text: The romantic orientation of a person is separate from their sexual orientation and many aromantic people experience for example sexual attraction or other forms of attraction. So an aromantic person can e.g. be heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, asexual, pansexual and/or queer at the same time. 2/3 aromanticspectrumday.net The link to the website is printed in green.

Text: Aromantic can also be a label on it’s own, without further terms for describing needed. This is individual and depends on the respective persons needs. People who aren’t aromantic can be described as alloromantic. 3/3 aromanticspectrumday.net The link to the website is printed in green. AROMANTIC SPECTRUM VISIBILITY DAY 25. August

What’s the aromantic spectrum? Did you know that aromanticism like other labels is a spektrum with diverse experiences. And microlabels of course 🙂
Oh, and sexual and romantic attraction are not the only one out there btw.”

Sharepic with a globe in the colors of the aromantic flag in the background. An arrowhead in the same colors is in front of it. A semitransparent white layer is laid above it, in its upper left corner is a frog in the colors of the aro*spec flag. In the upper right corner is a frog in the colors of the aro flag. Text: WHAT IS THE AROMANTIC SPECTRUM? Not everyone is fully alloromantic or aromantic. Between these poles a wide and diverse spectrum can be found. People on the aromantic spectrum usually experience romance, romantic attraction, romantically connotated actions and/or the desire for romantic relationships differently from the norm. 1/3

Text: WHAT IS THE AROMANTIC SPECTRUM? Many (but not all) people on the aromantic spectrum experience no or little feelings of being in love with other persons. Some do know something like platonic schwarmerei and the sudden appearance of strong platonic feelings for other people, which can be called a squish (term analog to ‘crush’). 2/3

Text: WHAT IS THE AROMANTIC SPECTRUM? For some people on the aromantic spectrum and beyond it’s helpful to name and differentiate different forms of attraction (e.g. sexual, romantic, platonic, aesthetic). This can help to phrase the own feelings and needs. The experience of attraction(s) is highly individual. Other aros find differentiating isn’t relevant or helpful. 3/3

Amatonormativity and Allonormativity – the two constructed social norms that sometimes seem to be our end boss. But then we eat our aro-pear, put the alloaro-sunflower in our hair, set the aro-frog on our left shoulder, give the grey-demi-raccoon the alloaro-ananas as a shield and snack and with our aro-hearts we stand tall against them.”

Text: Amatonormativity … is the socially wide spread assumption that a central, exclusive, romantic relationship is normal for humans, a universally shared goal and inherently more valuable than other forms of relationships. Allonormativity … is a social norm that presumes that every human feels sexual and romantic attraction. aromanticspectrumday.net The link to the website is printed in green.

Today the green-grey-white striped frog wants to tell you about grayromanticism.😊🐸”

There is also a frog in the colors of the grayromantic flag at the top right and one in the colors of the Arospec flag at the bottom left. Text:Grayromantic. The label grayromantic (also grayaro) is used by people who identify with aromanticism and on the aromantic spectrum but do not perceive themselves as fully aromantic. This can mean, that romantic attraction is felt infrequently, weakly, only under certain circumstances, or cannot be clearly identified. Aromantic Spectrum Visibility Day. August 25th

There is also a frog in the colors of the grayromantic flag at the top left and one in the colors of the Arospec flag at the bottom right. Text: Grayromantic. The gray area between aromanticism and alloromanticism is diverse and ambiguous, which is why there are many different experiences. People who feel romantic attraction but do not perceive it as relevant can also describe themselves as gray-romantic as well. Aromantic Spectrum Visibility Day. August 25th

A postcard with a starry sky in the upper part of the background and sand in the lower part. Approximately the left half of the card shows a part of the ASVD-Logo, which consists of a stylised globe with an arrowhead in front of it, both in the colours of the aromantic flag. It looks like a zoomed-in part of it. Within the starry sky four stars are linked with a stylised arrow and framed for clarity. Right above it the text reads „Get involved!“. Benath it above the sand it says „Aromantic Spectrum Visibility Day“ and „25. August“, all in white.
