microlabels, babyy

so ive been researching asexual microlabels a bit

mostly bc i was bored

and also, of course, i was thinking
and like

i dont really understand both the definitions of romantic and sexual attraction

buT

i understand romantic attraction less?

like i think i can vaguely imagine what sexual attraction might be like, hypothetically

but romantic? no fucking clue

so i thought idk looking at some definitions might help

im pretty sure im like 100% aro

but my ace identity might be a bit more ... detailed

so i looked it up

and theres:

"Aegosexual, also known less commonly as anegosexual and formerly referred to as autochorissexual ("autochoris" means "identity-less"), is a microlabel on the asexual spectrum that describes those who experience a disconnect between themselves and the subject of arousal. The contemporary term is made up of the prefix "a/an-" meaning 'not', "ego" for 'self', and 'sexual'. Hence, "aegosexual" or "anegosexual" literally means "sexual without self". Aegosexuals may have sexual fantasies, view sexual content, or masturbate, but typically feel little to no sexual attraction or desire to engage in sexual intercourse. Many aegosexuals fantasize about sex from a third-person perspective."

(from: https://lgbtqia.fandom.com/wiki/Asexual_spectrum)

which seem really accurate tbh
and its got a fun flag

but im not really sure
idk

have any of you got microlabels? or just... know of more?
id love to learn about as many as possible!
