New Term: Lovepunk
ok buckle up i wanted this term to exist so i went and coined it
Lovepunk can be both an identity and an opposition to the societal norms surrounding the concept of love. Lovepunk rejects the norms surrounding gender, attraction, orientation, and relationships, while actively resisting aphobia (arophobia, acephobia, aplphobia, etc) and the oppression caused by defying these norms. One doesn't have to be aspec to be lovepunk, but lovepunks stand with aspecs. This term is open to anyone who feels that they defy societies norms surrounding the concept of love, either via intentional rebellion or simply existing as their true self.
For example: arospecs, acespecs, aplatonics, loveless, lovequeer, polyamorous people, trans and nonbinary people, queer people, neurodivergents, disabled people, BIPOC, and anyone else may feel that their society's standards for love were not made to include them and were potentially even used to dehumanise them.
Think genderpunk, but for love! Identities like loveless and lovequeer can fall under this, but they don’t have to. It could even be considered a subset of, or related to voidpunk, but specifically defying norms as they relate to loving the “correct” way that all humans supposedly do.
