Quoiflux is a mixture of "quoi-" and "-flux", wherein the individual feels like they are on the aromantic or asexual spectrum, but their feelings are hard to pin down and determine and may be influenced by their mood or the day. They may feel they fluctuate between labels, like "-flux", but cannot always describe their feelings or say what labels they are. Quoiflux individuals may also feel like they simultaneously identify with multiple labels with varying levels of intensity. This can fluctuate rather quickly, sometimes with multiple labels feeling right in one day. These terms include grey- (ex. grey aroace) and demi- (ex. demispike) labels, as someone who is quoiflux can experience romantic or sexual attraction at some point, just like with these two identities.

Quoiflux can be used for any type of attraction. The term can be used on its own or with the orientation type (i.e. quoifluxromantic) and/or with the gender(s) they are attracted to (i.e. homoquoiflux/quoifluxhomo).

Tumblr user officialaspec coined the term on March 18th, 2020^[1], and created the flag on March 20th, 2020.^[2]

-'''Quoiflux''' is a mixture of quoi- and -flux, wherein the user feels like they are on the aro or ace spectrum, but their feelings are hard to pin down and determine. They may feel as if they fluctuate between different labels, like -flux, but are not always able to describe their feelings or say what labels they are. Quoiflux people may also feel like they identify with multiple labels all at one time, with varying levels of intensity. This can fluctuate rather quickly, sometimes with multiple labels feeling right in one day. Essentially, it would be used by people who have strong aspec feelings that can be hard to pin down and describe and may vary depending on the day or one’s mood. These terms do include gray- and demi- labels, as someone who is quoiflux can experience romantic or sexual attraction at some point, just like with these two identities.
