    '''Perioriented''' refers to someone whose [[Sexual Orientation|sexual orientation]] and [[Romantic Orientation|romantic orientation]] have "matching" prefixes. For example, someone who is [[bisexual]] and [[biromantic]], or someone who is [[gay]] (homosexual) and homoromantic are both examples of perioriented individuals. The noun form is periorientation.

The noun form is peri[[orientation]].


    Most perioriented individuals do not specify their romantic orientation, because one's romantic orientation can be assumed to be the same as sexual orientation unless specified otherwise. The sole common exception to this is [[aromantic]] [[asexual|asexuals]] ([[aroace|aroaces]]), as they are perioriented but do specify both orientations.
