#bambi aro

[ryanyflags]

Mega post of new bambi flags :) These are all made to be in the same style as my other bambi flags.

(Also, if anyone coins any alternative names for these terms, then these flags can be used for those too.)

In the order they're shown, the flags are: bambi achillean | (2nd ver) bambi sapphic | (2nd ver) bambi sapphillean | (2nd ver) bambi diamoric | bambi owtic/enbian bambi gaybian bambi gai | bambi strayt bambi uranic | bambi neptunic bambi cetero bambi a-spec | (2nd ver) bambi ace | bambi ace-spec bambi aro | bambi aro-spec bambi aroace | bambi aroace-spec bambi quoisexual | bambi quoiromantic bambi pomo | (2nd ver) bambi t4t

The designs follow a similar pattern as my other bambi flags. The top 4 stripes are for deer (and other animals), with the bottom 3 stripes for the respective orientations. (The white stripe also includes trans/nb people.)

The colors are based off of the original flags, but aren’t exactly the same. Since a lot of flags here have more than 3 colors/stripes, I focused on trying to simplify them down to their main colors (and combining some colors). There’s also rearranging of color orders, and changing the colors to be warmer / more pastel (to fit with the style I have for these flags). Plus, though this doesn’t contribute much to any meaning and is just aesthetics, each flag has slightly different brown stripes to fit with the bottom colors better.

More specifically, the bambi achillean, sapphic, ace-spec, aro-spec, and aroace-spec center stripes have been changed to use the white colors from their original flags, instead of the bambi white color. Since those flags didn’t just use plain white, and I think they contribute to the overall look / recognizability of those flags.

There’s also the bambi achillean, sapphic, and sapphillean flags. They have a symbol version and a plain stripe version. For the first 2 specifically, the plain stripe versions are slightly different, they include a color from the symbols (achillean with a green stripe and sapphic with a magenta stripe), to help make them more unique/recognizable. The symbol versions are just variations of the main blue and pink colors (3 stripes since I want them to match, the extra shades don’t have any special meanings). (sapphillean symbol made by @isobug here.)

The star symbols on a-spec and pomo are just made by me. I would love to add more symbols for other flags, especially since with the round outlines they look like stickers (love them so much!), but there weren’t any svgs I could find of them.

───────────────

Wow super long post haha. (But I guess that’s just what I do)

I wanted to explain my thought process behind the flags though, since when I work with other’s flags sometimes, the lack of meaning can be a bit confusing. I like explaining it so if anyone else wants to make something based on my flags, they know what to do.

[marooncookie]

clenches my fists. okay i need to talk about this cause it's been on my mind. can we like . stop erasing bambi being aroace. like i get that headcanons exist and i don't have anything against people who do ship dave x bambi or whatever (btw shipping here refers to romantic shipping exclusively i have no problem with like. qppr content of them i don't see their relationship that way but Good for them!) and i understand you could just like . hc bambi as demiromantic or something. but at the same time it never feels like its ever acknowledged that bambi is somewhere on the aro spectrum in that situation. and i know people just headcanon him as not aroace but. that rubs me the wrong way. and also people saying "it's canon in golden apple!" isn't an excuse because it's actually Not canon and dave and bambi shipping cute was a joke song and no bambi is not gay in current gapple lore (see: this). and even if it was it's still a fan mod that doesn't make it canon and just cause it's popular doesn't automatically make it okay. it's just frustrating because every time there's an aro and/or ace character in like any media ever the fact they are aro/ace is IMMEDIATELY erased for the sake of shipping because people simply cannot wrap their heads around the fact that platonic relationships exist! friends can be close without it being romantic! friendship is not just a stepping stone for romance it's just as important and valid! and. again i understand headcanons and stuff and again I Do Not hate you if you ship bambi with whoever!! (as long as it's not like. a character that's a minor i KILL YOU if that's the case) i'm not telling you to stop having fun or anything and like. you can ignore this if you want because in the end i can't tell you what to do. but i just wish that we could have aro/ace characters without that fact getting completely removed from their existance solely because people just have to ship them romantically So Badly that they get rid of a part of who they are. and also i wish people acknowledged bambi being romance and sex repulsed specifically more!! i know that was more recent-ish information and people who don't use twitter probably just Did Not Know (technically i don't use twitter either i don't have an account or anything i just browse for dnb content sometimes LOL) but like. aroace people who don't want to be in a relationship are valid too! can we stop acting like aroace characters just don't exist. please if someone irl told you they were aromantic and/or asexual you wouldn't try to force them into having a relationship they wouldn't want (at least i HOPE you wouldn't). so why do the same to fictional characters? also no saying it's "just fiction" isn't a valid argument shut up i kill you with the power of a thousand suns fiction affects reality shut your mouth. aroace people need representation too, let us have it without completely erasing us. rant over thanks for coming to my ted talk. also reiterating again I DO NOT HATE YOU if you ship bambi ships!! i just don't really like it personally!! this is just my thoughts and feelings on the matter don't act like this is a personal attack i beg also this is all coming from an aroace person so i am very qualified to talk about this topic :3 but of course this isn't how other aro and/or ace people might feel about this, in the end this is just my silly little opinion

[allastoredeer]

Hello, don't mind me, I just need to vent for a second.

First off, I just wanna say, as an aroace person on the ace-spectrum, feel free to ship Alastor all you want. Ship him with anyone. Have fun with it. Sex repulsed. Non-sex repulsed. Grey-ace. Demisexual. Pure unadulterated smut. Whatever, have at it. I love that shit.

Just please do it without infantilizing ace-aro people.

The amount of art, fics, and takes I've come across that's so patronizing to Alastor and his sexuality. Thing's like Alastor venting to Rosie about his feelings for a character with the caption "Alastor feeling love for the first time." Or Alastor wanting to have sex with a character and having feelings about that, and someone commenting "That's called a boner, sweetheart. That means you like them 🤭"

Like??? Like do ya'll not see how patronizing that sounds? Being ace-aro doesn't mean you don't know your own body. It doesn't mean you don't understand the functions of your body.

It doesn't mean you've never experienced intense emotions. It doesn't mean you've never experienced love before.

And, look, I know these are meant to be jokes. I know. People are joking. I laughed at the first few I came across, too. It's not meant to be harmful or condescending; no one means it that way. But there's been so much with such...bad takes recently, and I don't know about any other ace-spec people (I don't speak for all ace-specs. Hell, there are probably other ace-spec's who don't mind, enjoy it, or are making content like it themselves. I just speak for myself) but GOD it's getting uncomfortable.

Alastor is in his late 30's-early 40's in human years. That is the established age range we have for him. Do you really think that he'd go that long without ever experiencing "love?" He went through puberty just like everyone else, do you think he doesn't understand his own body???

Being asexual, or sex-repulsed, or touch-repulsed doesn't mean you automatically don't explore these parts of yourself. It doesn't mean he's never, once in his life, touched his own dick, or pussy, or whatever genitalia you're giving him. He can still very well be a "virgin" (which in and of itself is a social construct) while also knowing his body and confidently handling any "sexual needs" he has.

Do you really think he doesn't know what a boner is? That in all the years he's been alive and dead (on Earth and in Hell), he wouldn't have experienced these things once? (And you know what? Maybe he hasn't! Perhaps there are ace's out there like that! But you're telling me he doesn't KNOW what that is??? Really???)

Ah, no, it's all because he just hasn't found the right person yet, right? It's not until Lucifer/Angel Dust/Vox, whoever found him, and they gave him these feelings, and oh no, poor Bambi is feeling twitterpated and horny for the first time, isn't that romantic!

Honestly, not really. It just sounds like the same, stupid shit ace-aro people hear from family, friends, and acquaintances about their sexuality. You know, the tried and true: "Oh, you just haven't found the right person yet. You'll want all that eventually, you'll see😊"

Do you not see how frustrating that is?

Look, I am all down for Alastor exploring parts of himself. I want him to navigate different relationships, feel them out, figure out what kind of relationship he wants and what he's okay and not okay with doing. But there are ways to do that without treating him like a little UwU silly baby boy who doesn't know his own body, or his own emotions, or his own relationships with other characters. Like he needs someone to teach him about himself.

How about instead, he finds someone he feels comfortable exploring these elements with? Instead of them "teaching" him how to fuck, or masturbate, or whatever the hell you want to call it, they're giving him the room and safe-space to explore it at his own pace??!!

It comes across as someone who isn't on the ace-spectrum "teaching" an ace-spec character about their own sexuality which puts such a gross taste in my mouth. Or, at least, that's how it comes across to me.

And the thing is, I know people aren't going to stop. I know they're going to keep infantilizing Alastor and his aro-ace identity, and I wasn't originally going to make this post, because you can't control what people do in fandom.

So this is mostly just a post to say: HEY! Hello! Ace-aro person here! I hope you all are having fun and I love that you're exploring Alastor's asexual/aromantic identity! Especially those who may not be in the ace-spectrum themselves, as you're learning about us and our experiences! That's awesome! Can we just do that while also treating Alastor like the adult he is? Can we do that without being infantilizing and patronizing about his sexual identity? Please?"

That's all I really wanted to say. I just needed to get this off my chest instead of letting it fester. This isn't an attack on anyone, this is just the perspective of an Alastor multi-shipper who loves exploring his relationships with other characters (sexually and non-sexually) and deep-diving into the dynamics of the show.

Thanks for reading.

[twosoulss77]

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you are allowed to have a favourite ship, canon or not, out of a particular show.

Shipping is just a way for artist and what not to explore different dynamics, or even their own. That’s why I believe we should let people enjoy what they like, without forcing our own image of a certain spectrum into them. Especially cause shaming those people, for trying to explore their identity through art, might cause actual harm to them or cause them to not enjoy doing what they like anymore, bc of hateful comments from someone who hides behind a fake identity to hate on a fictional ship, which in itself it’s a very sad and pathetic way to live, but just cause your life is miserable doesn’t mean you need to make others people’s life miserable you know. Go touch Grass when you feel like being a dick!!!

As an AroAce fellow with no desire for a sexual relationship, I applaud and adore all those people making content of my fav husbands, let it be a fics smut or just normal fluff, I love it all SO MUCH Hazbin Hotel ep 5 changed my whole chemistry, and Say what you will about radioapple / appleradio, but I will always be entertained by the idea of Lucifer angrily doing acts of kindness for Alastor because it's what ‘Charlie would want’, and Alastor being a stupid ‘Bambi’ and try to wiggle himself out of it at the beginning, but then realise that he actually doesn’t mind the king of hell company at all. Both slowly growing to actually tolerate and maybe even like being around the other. Exchanging snarky remarks in a more playful way, playing music together, telling dad jokes, hating on the same delusions glorified iPad …like there is so much potential there that it’s crazy how much it pisses people off. It might be cause I am a sucker for Enemies to Friends to Lovers, but by God if that isn’t the best trope.

I know there will be some smart people out there, that are gonna be like “Alastor is ace”, but so are half the people who ship him!!! I hate when people make assumption on us, on who and how we want to love. I might not be interested in participating in sexual stuff myself, but that doesn’t stop me to explore my own ace-spectrum with these two characters, who if they wanted to could and would kiss each other, Cause for one I says so, I have the power to make that happen *insert hysterical laugh* And second It was confirmed that Alastor is a repulsed Ace, but would also be down to date someone if they were strong asf, (Confirmed in a stream, take that with a grain of salt) still makes this ship more possible than others.

Al being Aroace, doesn't mean he can't date or have sex, he's just not all that interested in it, but that could also derive from the fact that he hasn’t found the right person yet, so it doesn’t feel important to him yet. (fun fact aromantic wasn't the part of my struggle accepting that I was aroace it was actually accepting I was ace bc of my hyper sexual tendencies)

Also Alastor being aro just makes radioapple infinitely more funny to me, or any relationship with him for that matter. He is just this 7 feet tall demon with zero interest in romance, but always managing to find himself having beef with someone, possibly a guy, and act like he is either about to kiss or kill him XD

I really needed to get this off my chest and I absolutely mean every thing I said in here. Everyone has their own likes and dislikes, but you'll be surprised to see how much happier you will be when you stop focusing on what other people are doing and instead focus on what you like.

Thanks for listening 😊💜

BorealAqua Lesbian

BorealAqua Lesbian, Boreal Lesbian, Aqua Lesbian, or simply B.A. Lesbian is a term for lesbians who don't seek/prioritize neither sexual or romantic relationships. BorealAqua Lesbians might, or might not, want other unique types of relationships with other non-men, like QPRs, for example.

The violet and the lavender tint covering the heart were chosen because of the history surrounding these colours, like the lavender movement or the violets used by lesbians to show interest to each another. Violet means lesbian culture.

The cyan was chosen out of the aroace culture of using, not only purple and green, but also blue and cyan. You can see the blue and/or cyan on some aroace, oriented aroace, demirose, etc. flags, and I used this detail on this flag. You can tell I valued the cyan aspect more than blue, but it's because the colours would be too equal, imp. But the purpose is still the same. Cyan means lack of both romantic and sexual attraction/lack of interest in romantic and sexual relationships.

The gradient means two things: 1- Diversity in the lesbian community; From the butch women to the genderqueer lesbians, from the white lesbians to the lesbians of colour of cultural genders, and others. And 2- The many different and unique relationships that are not exclusively romantic or sexual.

The upside down heart means lesbians who don't seek/don't have/are not in relationships for any reason; Trauma, unable to get a relationship, or simply is not comfortable with being inside a relationship. This last one might seem controversial, but no one is in anyone's heart, everyone is crazy, and lesbians who are only capable of aesthetic attraction are not less lesbian. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Anyways, I hope y'all liked this flag. I really liked the idea of the Bambi Lesbian and the Aphrodite Lesbian and I decided to do something that has the best of both terms. Babaii! XP

[leikeliscomet]

Are there any ace lesbians that just don't vibe with "bambi lesbian"? Both ace and allo lesbians that wanna use the term that's great but for me personally I don't really claim it. Not all bambis are ace but not all aces are bambi. I noticed a lot of bambi lesbian & ace sapphic content always equates being ace with being a fem sapphic and I dont get it. Non sexual intimacy gets equated with "feminine" roles like cottagecore, being a stay at home gf, cooking, gardening, pink, sweetness, softness etc. Like where's the stuff for the asexual butches? Asexual studs? Asexual stems? Ace sapphics that lean more androgynous and masc? Where's the ace sapphic & bambi stuff about buying masc clothes with your partner, or building something with them or changing a tire and shit. The term bambi, a small soft, dainty, innocent animal being the representation of not having sex/sexual attraction feels a lil weird too. You can be soft and dainty and sexual. You can be non-sexual and dominant and strong. And again asexuality =/= not liking sex its just means little to no sexual attraction. When you look at ace culture the terms and imagery isn't exclusively masc or fem. An animal that isn't stereotyped as being softy feminine and innocent for lesbian aces is a label I'd feel more comfortable claiming. It would kinda cringe but a sea urchin or dragon would make more sense to me. Or it could take a page from our aro bredren with aphrodite lesbian and be "artemis lesbians" or something idk. There's absolutely nothing wrong with being fem and ace sapphic or just fem btw, it's just non-sexual love isn't automatically purer by default, not all ace sapphics are fem and you can be masc, butch, stud, stem or androgynous and soft too.
