Aroqueer

An identity for anyone on the aro spectrum whose aromanticism is the most prominent or most well understood part their orientation. The ‘rest’ of an aroqueer person’s orientation can’t or won’t be defined more specifically than “queer”. Aroqueer is not simply aro + queer, as the aromantic aspect factors into the queer aspect - the aromanticism is part of the queerness, and the two are inseparable. Aroqueer is for both people who can’t define their orientation beyond “aro” and “queer” and for people who can define their orientation further but refuse to. About the flag

Willowan/Willowgender

Willowan describes someone who feels their gender to be softly fluid but inherently tied to nature. Willowans often have a neutral gender/gender element an anchor point from which they will fluctuate. The gender fluidity in willowgender can be subtle and occur over a longer period of time (months or seasons) and can be hard for the person experiencing it to notice. Willowgender often accompanies a neutral gender element or internal feeling of gender, even when this does not match the external gender presentation. The neutrality of willowgender is inherently linked to the earth and nature in that its fluctuations often occur alongside seasons, environment, and weather. Willowans will often feel most neutral in the forest. Like willow, this gender will bend away from its anchor gender but never fully break from it, always returning eventually.
