'''Wechselnd Attraction''', alternatively called '''Switch Attraction''', describes a tertiary style of attraction with relevance to both [[Cedural Attraction]] and [[Tutelary Attraction]]. Under Wechselnd Attraction, the subject's attraction style may fluxuate between Cedural or Tutelary depending on the emotional, intellectual, or otherwise state and context of the subject, as well as the individual they are attracted to. In so many words, Cedural is to submissive as Wechselnd is to switch. A subject may have a stronger Tutelary Attraction towards an individual who they are interested warding and otherwise protecting, but may have a more Cedural Attraction towards a different individual, or even with the same individual if they temporarily (or permanently) take on a more caretaker-esque role for the subject. The aspects and nature of the subject's Cedural or Tutelary attraction are intermittent, and may change or be nonextant depending on mood or context, two separate instances of the subject's Cedural attraction may look and feel different to the subject and to the recipient. |

The term Wechselnd Attraction was coined during a private conversation between two members of the LGBTA Wiki, users Creacket and BigGalFastThough were speaking over the nature of fluxuating, caretaking-related, tertiary attractions and desired a term to describe intermittence, alternation, and variance of said attractions. The German word Wechselnd was chosen, as it captured all relevant ideas effectively. |

| ⚫ | The inversion of colors from left to right symbolizes how the subject may switch from being primarily Tutelary to primarily Cedural. The red is reminiscent of the more intense colors from the Tutelary flag, while the lichen green calls to the more passive coloration of the Cedural flag. The black, grey, and white, gradient is a theme seen in many tertiary attraction flags, particularly the Cedural and Tutelary flags. |
