Obsidian refers to refers to an individual who has never had consensual or authentic sex before. Non-queer people can use it but the term was created with ace-spec individuals in mind as a description for people who are proud of their virginity, but are uncomfortable with the word. In queer usage, it is often linked with a lack of intercourse because of being closeted or not finding someone of the same gender to share it with.
It was made to show that 'virgin' isn't an insult to certain people who are proud of it, otherwise an attempt of an emerging term made to overwrite the word 'virgin' and its negative history as well as connotations.

🦢 Swanromantic
Swanromantic is a microlabel on the aromantic spectrum for someone who experiences romantic attraction toward only one person in their entire life — and never feels romantic attraction to anyone else.
The label is inspired by swans, who are known to form a single, lifelong bond with one mate. In the same way, a swanromantic person may only ever fall in love once, forming a deep and exclusive romantic connection that doesn't repeat or shift to anyone else, even after separation or time.
This is not just about commitment — it's about how the person experiences attraction at their core.
It can be used as a standalone identity or alongside others (like bi, gay, or ace).
Swanromantic people often don’t develop romantic crushes or interests beyond that one singular bond
No flag :c feel free to make one
Um... I'm not gonna do an introduction 'cause this will probably be the only time I'm on here. (I'm assuming it works the same way as on the Gender Wiki....)
Gayjoke (or Gayironic) is an orientation where someone claims the identity "gay" without necessarily completely/trully being gay, usually in a joking (but respectful) way. Anyone can identify as this weather they're actually gay or lesbian or even aroace. (It can also be a sexuality or romantic.)
(No flag yet, but if you wanna make it, be my guest!)
I am sooooo boreeed! And what is my way of not being bored? Reading books, playing crk or coining stuff! And I am choosing the 3rd rn! And the community to coin is Orientation Wiki! Yaay! So I will be coining 3 things, Puresexual, Pureamorous and Pureromantic!
Firstly, I want to remind y'all that I was the person that coined Puregender in the Gender Wiki, and it is normal for me to use the same prefix for orientations. So now, I present y'all the descriptions of those new orientations and their flags!
1) Puresexual:
Puresexual term is used for people who has little interest in sex, regardless of gender, but desires more. It can be misunderstood as asexual, but even tho it is not the clearest, they have some interest in sex.
2) Pureromantic:
Pureromantic term is used for people who has little interest in romance, regardless of gender, but desires more. It can be misunderstood as aromantic, but even tho it is not the clearest, they have some interest in romance.
3) Pureamorous:
Pureamorous term is used for people who has little interest in relationships, regardless of gender, but desires more. It can be misunderstood as nonamorous, but even tho it is not the clearest, they have some interest in relationships.
revace:
a form of asexuality caused by anxiety that redirects the missing sexual attraction into a form of reverence or worship of a specific person/a group of people
coined by me!!! @aecyll on tumblr (not posted yet), coined 17/05/2025
Abelian refers to an individual on the A-spectrum, either in all types of attraction, or at least one. It is an attraction-type neutral label, an alternative term for ace-spectrum and aro-spectrum, and all other a-spec identities. It is an amari-related identity and formatted to resemble a juvelic term.
Albizian, or abromari refers to an individual whose orientation is changing or fluid. It is an attraction-type neutral label, an alternative term for abrosexual, abroromantic, etc. It is an amari-related identity and formatted to resemble a juvelic term to avoid specification of every type of abro attraction they have.
(Flag made by me, Yellows showing the "Amber" Park with the Circle showing A piece missing, showing a Lack of full Acceptance.)
Amberic is an umbrella Term, spanning from Genders to Sexualities. Amber is A Hidden Term for being part of the LGBTQ+, but not able to directly share it due to People they know following them or Parents checking their accounts.
This way, People can add "Amber" or "Amberic" to Their Bio to protect themselves from pushback or Jokes from Others they know IRL.
Amberic's flag exists to simply be able to add it to Lists of flags and better able to match with others, But the flag is not meant to be added to someone's Bio as A Flag makes people raise questions about it.
TL;DR
Amber (Or Amberic) is A Term meant to protect the Gender or Sexuality of Someone so people who are part of the LGBTQ+ community can See they are part of the same Community and make friends like that. It's not meant to be Shown as anything besides A Simple mention in A Bio to farther protect the same people who use it.
About Homotonic:
(Name may be subject to change)
A relationship type (like queerplatonic, etc.) where the parties involved have this unlabeled / unsaid deep mutual bond which comes in the form of them feeling like buddies / bffs, friends with gay tension, fwbs, queer platonic and gay lovers all at once
This label isn’t exclusive to male / male relationships, just whatever constitutes as “gay” to the parties involved (like idk, lesbians)
Individuals in a Homotonic relationship may or may not care what others perceive their relationship as
Im aroace and really needed this term for several of my ocs🙏

I came up with a 7 stripe flag because I was going to make a bracelet with the colors for my friend. The arrangement came out this way

Somatic is a suffix used to describe an attraction based on biological sex. It is meant to be paired with genderal orientations. This term is used when someone is imprisexual or their somatic attraction doesn't match their genderal attraction, as well as any other need for specification.
Genderal is a suffix used to describe an attraction to gender. It may or may not be an attraction based on gender. This is often used as the attraction-type neutral description of an orientation.
(Example: if a heterosexual person doesn't feel sexual attraction but is still attracted to the opposite gender, they may find heterogenderal to be a better-fitting label to describe themself)
It is also used when someone's somatic orientation doesn't match with their genderal orientation.
(Example: Pangenderal gynesomatic)
Most of these are just for the people whose orientation is unique and needs to be specified. Anyone who's omnisexual is also omnigenderal but they may not be omnisomatic.
(Somatic can also be referred to as somatial)

Lexxbian is a subset of lesbian that is based on sex, not gender. The lexxbian individual may have a preference for gender, but their lesbian attraction is only to AFABS, XX chromosome havers, and female-bodied individuals. Anyone that is lesbian can use this term, no matter their AGAB.
Gxy (pronounced gux-ae) is a subset of gay that is based on sex, not gender. The gxy individual may have a preference for gender, but their gay attraction is only to AMABS, XY chromosome havers, and male-bodied individuals. Anyone that is gay can use this term, no matter their AGAB.
In case anyone is worried about any transphobic connotations behind this, there are none! I'm trans myself and the friend who I'm coining these for is also trans. (Originally it was just lexxbian, but I made a gay counterpart) "It's disregarding a person's gender and reducing them to their genitals" well, no, it's making a distinction between the two and stating the source of their homosexual attraction. Sex and gender are separate, after all! To say what I quoted would be disregarding the separation between the two.
It's similar to the imprisexual-esque definition of gynesexual/androsexual. It also isn't a preference, as for some people they may not have control over their attraction. And nor is it a sexual preference either, as it can also be used by asexual individuals or referred to as hxmyromantic.
If anyone still has any questions or concerns feel free to ask and I shall answer :)

I was thinking about potential orientations that could exist, and maybe it'd let people discover themselves more easily or they'd like a term that was more specific that they identify with. Not that I myself will identify as any of these as I'm confident in my bisexuality atm. Just something I thought would be cool. Let me know about your thoughts, and whether or not you want to make it a proper thing! I know these'll just work simply being labeled as "polysexual", but ig these'll be similar to polysexual except more specific. ;D

Hello so im coining a new term!
Its called alloaegosexual (it could also be called allo-aegosexual, aegoallosexual, etc)
When someone is both aegosexual and allosexual, when someone feels connected to both aegosexuality and allosexuality. you can also be greysexual/demisexual because you would still have a connection to allosexuality.
Someone who's aegosexual, and allosexual regarding attraction (they may be asexual regarding things like libido or sexual desire). they're allosexual, but their aegosexuality prevents them from being attracted to people.
the allo-aegosexualflag:
Its the allosexual flag with less stripes with the inverted asexual triangle. i also darkened the pink because it looked off.
