I'm really, really sorry to bother but can you change the meaning in the description to someone who's aromantic and asexual who feels attraction that's neither romantic or sexual as oriented aroaces are not on the arospec nor acespec like grayace and grayaro, etc I'm sorry again aaaaaaaaa Thank you for making this stamp, though!! I'm happy that it exists ;v;

I’m not entirely sure how this works. If you’re both asexual and aromantic, then by definition you’re not gay/straight/bi/pan. Or am I missing something?

Hello! Actually someone that's oriented aroace is someone that's aroace who're not arospec or acespec (like grayro and grayace, etc since that's why angled aroace was coined which is for anyone that's arospec and acespec, aro and acespec, and ace and arospec) that feels an attraction that's not romantic or sexual like sensual, platonic, etc. I'm oriented aroace myself and I use it because I experience alterous (kind of hard to describe but it's attraction that can’t be described as neither being (entirely/completely) platonic nor romantic, & is an attraction best described as wanting emotional closeness without necessarily being (at all or entirely) platonic &/or romantic) attraction to anyone while experiencing no romantic and sexual attraction. It's different for all oriented aroaces though so I can't speak for everyone

If you're still confused,  biaroace.tumblr.com/post/18549… this infographic is pretty handy and describes it better than I could and that person is also the one who coined oriented aroace, too so you can ask them questions or just look through the advice tag on their blog ovob I'm sorry I'm just throwing a bunch of terms at you but I hope this helps you;;

Which is why I say someone who on the spectrum of both. As in, someone could be asexual and demiromantic and because they can still experience romantic attraction, they can still be gay/straight/bi/etc. And things like that.
I'm pretty sure it's not about purely aromantic and asexual people...

Honestly, I'm pretty skeptical about the whole demisexual/demiromantic thing. Normal people don't automatically fall in love with or want to have sex with everybody they see, so I don't understand why the demi labels are necessary.

That's good for you. I only used it as an example, things like grey-aromantic could also work in its place.

That doesn't really answer my question...

I mean, there's not a lot that I can do if you don't believe in stuff like demi-, grey- or other not fully ace but not-not ace spectrum terms. That's what this whole thing relies on.
