== Flag ==
The cupio- flag was designed by an unknown DeviantArt user on or before July 4, 2015.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/pride-flags/art/Cupio-Kalos-2-543925404</ref> The color meaning is unknown.
The cupioromantic flag was proposed by an anonymous WikiFandom user in the October of 2020. This was done to help distinguish between the cupiosexual flag and the cupioromantic flag, as the flags were the same beforehand. The flag was turned upside down, since the aromantic flag is upside down compared to the [[asexual]] flag. Another stripe was also added to match the aromantic flag, which, in the same way, has one stripe more than the asexual flag. The pink was changed to peach as a way to show that the desired relationship type is romantic, rather than sexual.
The third alternate cupioromantic flag was proposed by Fandom user idratherhavecake on January 20th20, 2021. The first three stripes have the same meanings as the cupiosexual flag, and the final pink stripe was switched out for green to represent being aromantic.
The alternate flag by Fandom user Mothfree were designed in September 2021. The darker pink represents love, the lighter pink represents lack of attraction, the white represents relationships, the lighter green represents romanticism, and the darker green represents romance.
The cupioromantic symbol was created on 28th October 28, 2021 for an LGBT+ symbols poster. It consists of a heart and a slash through it to represent a lack of romantic attraction but a heart at the tip to represent a desire or taste for romantic relationships. Along with the cupiosexual symbol, it was created by wikiFandom user WiiFyneLM.
