Line 1:
'''Repulsion descriptors''' are used to classify a person's stance on taking part in activities corresponding to certain types of relationships. They are meant to classify both the [[attraction]] as well as the level of [[Sex-Repulsed|repulsion]] toward taking part in any type of relationship or interaction in one compact term. For example, someone who is asexual but [[Sex-Favorable|sex favorable]], and would only consider having sex with someone of the same [[gender]] would be [[asexual]] homofav under this terminology. This terminology seeks to strictly separate the notion of attraction from the notion of actually taking part in a relationship.
== Structure ==
Each identity is comprised of four parts: attraction, type of relationship or interaction, spectrum of gender (which they are attracted to or repulsed by), and favorability.
Line 44 ⟶ 45:
* -[[Sex-Averse|ave]] - [averse] When someone finds the interactions undesirable, uninteresting, uncomfortable, or otherwise unwanted
*-[[Sex-Repulsed|rep]] - [repulsed] When someone finds the interactions undesirable (perhaps repulsive/disgusting/revolting), uninteresting, or otherwise uncomfortable or unwanted
*-osc - [oscillation] When someone's feelings towards the interactions fluctuate
Additionally, if a person has specified that their possible gender spectrum for the favorability of an interaction encompasses a specific group, they may wish to add a third word to specify their favorability for other gender identities outside of the specified group. For example, someone who is heterofav and repulsed by all others could identify as "heterofav elrep" ("el" referring to all else). Some may prefer not to use this identifier, either because they wish to leave their favorability ambiguous or if their gender spectrum already encompasses all gender identities (e.g. pan).
