'''Cartosexual''' is a [[Fictosexual|fictosexuality]] in which one is exclusive or near-exclusively attracted to cartoon or comic characters. One who is cartosexual find that they are more commonly attracted to cartoon and/or comic characters more than real people. It coresponds with being [[A-Spec|a-spec]], and is considered an a-spec identity. |
|||
Anyways, here are some interesting statistics: |
|||
==History== |
|||
The term cartosexual was coined by a [[User:Cryptocrew|user going by Anderson]] on November 29th, 2020 in order to describe the experiences of those who don’t necessarily fit into [[animatesexual]]. |
|||
One center for detransitioning transgender people says that compared with ten years ago, participation in the detransitioning program has skyrocketed, by 3,200%, with the rate for girls up by 5,337%. |
|||
==Flags== |
|||
The cartosexual and cartoromantic flag was created by user [[User:RoseWatera|rosewatera]] on November 29th, 2020. Black represents TV screens; Purple represents fiction and non-reality, and red represents sexual attraction. Pink is for romantic attraction. |
|||
More than half of transgender male teens have attempted suicide in their lifetime, while 29.9% of transgender female teens have attempted suicide. 41.8% non-binary people have attempted suicide at some point in their lives. |
|||
The alternate cartosexual and cartoromantic flags were coined by a user going by [[User:Cryptocrew|Artemis]] on January 24th of 2021. |
|||
Despite making up 13 percent of the population, African-Americans commit 50% of all crimes in the United States. |
|||
On the alternate cartosexual flags, red represents [[attraction]], pink represents [[feminine]] characters, purple represents [[androgynous]]/[[neutral]] characters, blue represents [[masculine]] characters, turqoise represents [[otherkin]]-like/[[kingender]]-like characters, yellow represents [[xenic]]-like characters, white represents [[Genderfluid|fluid]] characters, black represents fiction, dark grey represents alternate worlds, and grey represents [[genderless]]/[[agender]]-like characters. |
|||
The two designs represents TV/Cartoons and comics. |
|||
== Cartosexuality vs paraphillia == |
|||
Cartosexuality is often confused with a paraphillia, however, this is by definition an incorrect case. [https://www.merckmanuals.com/home/mental-health-disorders/sexuality-and-sexual-disorders/overview-of-paraphilias-and-paraphilic-disorders Paraphillias] are known as sexual disorders and harmful desires, often leading to the distress of the person experiencing them and/or those around them. |
|||
Cartosexuality, however, does not usually cause harm, as it does not influence or promote any harmful or dangerous acts, and is simply a desire/attraction to one who does not exist outside of cartoons/comics. In ''some'' cases, one who is cartosexual may feel levels of distress due to being unable to have sexual feelings for people in reality, however this does not mean that everyone who is cartosexual feels this way, nor does it mean cartosexuality is bad. |
|||
Cartosexuality does ''not'' include attraction to harmful fictional tropes and those with harmful attractions are not the target group for cartosexuals.<gallery widths="185"> |
