Autiattractional & Autiorientation Pride Flag

Autiattractional term coined by @ten-clowning-street and flag designed by @asphyxiatedredherring.

Autiorientation term coined by @themogaidragon (aka me héhé).

Definitions:

Autiattractional: An orientation in which a person on the autism spectrum cannot tell the difference between different types of attraction due to being autistic. And/or an orientation in which a person on the autism spectrum is unable to understand and/or relate to the neurotypical concept of attraction, sexuality and/or orientation. And/or an orientation which can only be understood in the context of being autistic.

Autiorientation: orientation which can only be understood in the context of being on the autism spectrum, when one's autism greatly affects one's orientation. Autiorientation is not autism as a orientation, but rather an identity that is so heavily influenced by autism that one's autism and one's orientation cannot be unlinked. Not all autistic people identify with autiorientation(s), only those whose orientation is influenced by them being autistic.
