queerplatonic repulsed culture is feeling excluded from the aro / ace community because of how queerplatonic attraction / relationships seem to be expected
.
(just adding that the aro and ace community are not the same community or identity, they are distinct - and that even people who are neither aro or ace can be queerplatonic-repulsed in case other ppl misinterpret anon's wording) (and aqueerplatonic is still under aspec bc aspec is not just aro and ace, but anon does not mention orientation here only repulsion)

Being aromantic is not inherently all about friendship or having platonic squishes or wanting qprs!
Aros who are aplatonic, aplspec, nonfriending, plato averse, nonpartnering, aqueerplatonic, analterous, qpr averse, or otherwise do not fit norms surrounding platonic and qpr stuff(which seems to be compounded and intensely seen as 'aro culture' in general aro spaces) are amazing and we deserve to have our experiences acknowledged and we deserve to feel included in the aro community!
(-Sonic/Rift)
(This post is about aros who do not fit aro community norms surrounding friendship, qprs, and other nonromantic emotional attraction types/associated relationship types! DO NOT DERAIL)
(Also do not mention anything about us being human, not inhuman, etc. Because alterhuman, other nonhuman, and inhuman identities exist and not all of us id as human or call ourselves that so be mindful of that in any tags or replies!!)

Questioning analterous culture is wanting to explore analterous stuff and see how other people feel but you can't bc there's like no stuff. Like ya there's loveless that kinda touches on it and yes there's aqueerplatonic, but it's more than that yk

INTRO
Hi, I am the first apl-culture-is blog. Ok, I actually don't know that.
Anyway, I first discovered Aplatonicism way back in 2018 on Pride-flags. Back then the community was fairly small and deserted. Since then, the community has slowly been gaining traction and now we have more people than ever. However we are still fairly small and I wanted to give us a place like this blog where we can submit our thoughts about being apl and gain some representation for ourselves.
What is Aplatonic? Look here at this masterpost.
The term first originated back in 2012 when Mr.Shuttershy came up with it on an AVEN thread. (/src)
I will also give my own personal brief rundown -
There are varied meanings for Aplatonicism. I understand it can be confusing but I believe the interpretation is up to you. If it fits you, it fits you.
From my understanding Aplatonic can range from being touch averse, neurodivergent, lacking Queerplatonic attraction(though you can also use Aqueerplatonic), lacking platonic attraction, struggling to form or maintain friendships/platonic relationships.
Though these do not need to be or are the only instances that you can experience Aplatonicism. If anything impacts how you form platonic relationships, interact, or experience platonic attraction then I believe you can call yourself Aplatonic.
This insight is inspired by all the many accounts I saw of what Aplatonicism was when I first discovered the term, and this quote:
Aplatonism can uniquely affect how we form and maintain platonic relationships. (/src)
I also do not think Aplatonicism is for Aromantics only, Allorose can also use it as well. Especially since it was first coined by an Alloro.
Accounts of the different meanings are difficult to find since I first discovered the term. However if you are curious or just inclined to look deeper into Aplatonicism, @aroarolibrary has some threads of the history and other content under #Aplatonicism.
Wondering what platonic attraction is? Well, I will explain quick from my understanding. It's the of feeling of being drawn to others or desire to create a friendship/platonic relationship. This can be experienced such as consistently reaching out, reaching out first(more than just occasionally). If you lack this, you may find you can go weeks, months, or even years without missing them since you last spoke. Or if you and your friends/platonic relationships go separate ways and you're not worried about being apart.
If you have questions feel free to ask and I will answer the best I can or will invite others to!
