Apstellic is a term from the stellate orientation system referring to an attraction to aiaspec (aporine, partially aporine or aporine-aligned), and/or aingender (aporine in nature) genders. This may also include fluid and fluctuating genders that sometimes align with these identities, or genders that partially align with these identities, such as some multigenders, though this term refers specifically to an attraction to the aporine part(s) of such genders.
One may or may not experience apstellic attraction exclusively (one may or may not experience attraction to genders other than the ones the term refers to). It does not inherently indicate that one's orientation involves any form of staticity or preference, and does not describe any information about one's own gender - simply that one experiences an attraction to aporine genders in some form.
Usage
Apstellic may be used to refer to any type of attraction. This includes (but is not limited to): any split attractions, angled or oriented a-spec identities, and fluid or fluctuating attractions. It may be used as an adjective to describe an aspect of one's attraction, or as an identity - whether combined with other identities or used on its own. It may also be used as a general term, encompassing anyone who experiences, or any identities that involve, an attraction to aporine genders.
This term may be combined with other identities in any way one feels is accurate. One may add prefixes and suffixes, such as "demi-" "-flux" "-fluid" and "-spike", to indicate a specific experience of attraction if one wishes, for example: "demiapstellic" or "apstellicflux". One may also add suffixes specifying a type of attraction, for example: "apstellic-sexual" or "apstellic-romantic".
