Atertiary

Atertiary, also known as nontertiary, is an identity defined by a complete lack of tertiary attraction. One who is atertiary would not experience any form of tertiary attraction, and would by default be nonamical, asocial, amental, etc.

Atertiary people may still engage in activities traditionally defined by tertiary attraction, such as having tertiary relationships.

The opposite of atertiary is allotertiary, where one experiences all forms of tertiary attraction.
