Idk if ASAW will still be going on when this is posted, but I was scrolling through the aromantic tag and I'm so confused by how many people are calling it Aromantic Awareness Week / AAW????

Like granted it's a minority that and I /know/ learning new terms can be really hard for some people, but I remember when I first learned about ASAW back in… I think 2018 or 2019 it was very much talked about and explained to those who asked; That Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week was much preferred and was trying to become the new default because arospec who weren't the aro version of "black stripe aces" feeling left out and dismissed during our week. So well I assume it's probably mainly just people who didn't know that, I can't help but feel like it aromantics specifically trying to exclude arospec folks as I saw that happening way to much in the past to trust it suddenly died out and everyone who used Aromantic Awareness Week in their posts aren't exclusionists. This kinda turned into a half vent half history lesson lol, but I was not expecting to see AAW used especially more then I personally saw even last year.

Aromantic Awareness Week is starting on Sunday and there doesn’t appear to be a list of fandom prompts for it this year. Anyone want to request any icons or lockscreens? [character + aro spec flag] Send in aro spec headcanons? I’m open to ideas!

Aromantic Awareness Week

With Aromantic Awareness Week coming up Feb. 17-23, I would like to invite you all to share your experiences of platonic love and other nonromantic forms of love to highlight that romantic love is not the only / most important form of love. Please share your stories of the kinds of love which you’ve experienced and how you express these forms of love, what these kinds of love mean to you, how they feel compared to romantic love (if you’ve experienced it), your thoughts on the importance of different kinds of love in a romance-saturated society, or something else. While this week is named after aromantic people, any aro/aspec person is more than welcome and encouraged to participate, which will even better raise awareness for a group that receives little attention. 

 To participate, you may make a submission to one of the host blogs (below) or use the tag “aro love”

Hosts: @demiromantic-official @demi-romantics @demisexual-kingdom

Black arospecs are amazing and valid as fuck and deserve so much love (no romo XD )

Zephyr hadn't wanted a partner for a lot of reasons. Some he voiced easily - arrogantly - such as not wanting someone to slow him down. But other reasons were harder to articulate. Yet somehow Zephyr manages to accumulate not just one partner, but four.

If he could travel with Allen, Sara, Lippy, and Kana forever... that would be wonderful, wouldn't it?
