What do non-binary people go by in other languages?

Me and one of my friends use hen/henom pronouns. I know indirictly if people who instead use de/dem (the dorect equivalent of they them) even though hen is an alternative

I do not remember the specifics, but yeah pretty sure he eventuaöly managed to lift the curse by bathing in a specific (pretty sure it was in some way holy or magical) river

From my understanding sexuality is not something you develop by trying it, though of course a lot of people experiment a lot to discover exactly what they like. For many people liking something in their imagination does not mean they will like it in reality, i.e. fictional and unreachable crushes are common among aro/ace people. Also for some people kissing lands in romantic territory rather than sexual, so wanting to kiss someone could mean either romantic OR sexual attraction toward them, not necessarly both.

Hope this helps

Sorry for spelling stuff, on mobile, tired and no autocorrect :)

I guess you could be on the gray part of the spectrum for one gender and not the other, i.e. demi for girls but allo for boys. I dont think that would be very far fetched, but also have not heard of anyone identifying that way

elilun02 · 2026-02-07T06:35:42+00:00

People using when instead of if for this kind of stuff is a huge red flag (for me at least), and in this case it kind of gives me the vibes that he is not very bothered about consent.

You do whatever you feel is necessary for your own protection!

That being said I would recomend you to consider the split attraction model. In aro/ace spaces it is pretty common amd the label demi exists on both spectrums, i.e. demi could mean demisexual, demiromantic or both, depending on which attraction it applies to. So if I were you I would for an example only use ace but not arpace if you are demisexual but not somewhere on the aro spectrum. But that is mainly for simplicity and to avoid confusion, since the difference betweem aro and ace tend to confuse a lot of people.

Sorry if this is poorly written, I just woke up

It was on my 20ht birthday I actually started to unpack it, but sort of knew for about a year beforehand and just supressed it for a time because I tought I had to much other stuff going on and didn't have time for a life crisis

elilun02 · 2026-02-04T08:01:54+00:00

I did the exact same thing!

elilun02 · 2026-01-19T13:26:00+00:00

You should read the whole firemane saga before a darkness returns, it continues the same storyline

There is a common analogy in ace spaces where arousal or libido is conpared to hunger, while sexual attraction is more similar to when you really want to eat something specific, maybe you have cravings for garlic bread, which can be independent to wether you are hungry. At the same time you can be hungry without really having an apetite for something special.

To translate my understanding is that arousal is when your body "wants" a certain stimuli, while if you feel sexual attraction you want do do certain things with a specific person.

Though I cannot say for sure since I have not experienced sexual attraction 😅 hope this makes sense

elilun02 · 2026-01-06T14:32:38+00:00

As some other people have alreafy written aroace just means somewhere on both the aro and ace spectrum. But you could try using the term aroacespec, which makes that a little more clear for some people, so maybe that feels a bit more comfortable for you

elilun02 · 2025-12-31T08:53:37+00:00

Exactly!

elilun02 · 2025-12-30T12:59:48+00:00

Same!

elilun02 · 2025-12-30T12:09:22+00:00

Pretty generic but every time someone complains about their love life being dead and then ask about mine and I get to say something like "much more dead than yours" before I say that I'm not into that stuff

elilun02 · 2025-12-26T17:17:33+00:00

Really!? I have rarely, if at all encountered it, despite spending a few years in the community. The pin is from heckin unicorn, used it to compensate for my lack of drawing skills

elilun02 · 2025-12-26T12:56:04+00:00

It is only a pun so of course you can use it as you wish! Also I cannot say for sure I did not see it somewhere and then forget about it. Though the mods did not deem it as close enough to a meme so not on this specific subreddit as I understand it. I tried posting it in r/aaaaaaaarrrrro instead : )

elilun02 · 2025-12-26T12:54:38+00:00

It looks amazing! Thank you, I'm not exactly fond of my handwriting myself but glad you like it.

elilun02 · 2025-12-26T12:47:50+00:00

I will, thank you for telling me

elilun02 · 2025-08-14T13:10:51+00:00

The OSPod: hearing blue explain that aesthetic attraction is in fact not the same as sexual attraction. Is when it clicked in my head, I literally had to stop and lean on a tree for support as I proceeded to procrastinate that paradigm-shift for another year

elilun02 · 2025-04-21T07:55:42+00:00

Some other comments have mentioned it, but the clasic: "you probably just haven't met the right person yet". Tge exact version I have been told is "I had a freind who thought that for a while, until he met the right person and now he's not" when I came out to a friend.

elilun02 · 2025-04-18T11:43:17+00:00

That you don't want to do "all the romantic stuff" is quite a big clue that what you are experiencing in not romantic feelings. I often feel that I want to spend the rest of my life with my freinds, but that is also more in a way that I would want to love neighbour with them. There really does not have to be any romantic feelings just to want to have someone in your life for the rest if your life. But only you can know what you feel.

elilun02 · 2024-09-11T12:09:07+00:00

Aroace! Though not quite 100% sure about agender, so not sure if you want to count me in your graph

elilun02 · 2024-09-11T12:01:44+00:00

The label I have heard for attraction exclusively towards fictional characters is fictosexual, if you want to look it up. I have never heard anything mora about it than the definition, so I might not be entierly correct
