[[File:Aesthetic attraction.png|thumb|The aesthetic attraction flag.]]'''Aesthetic attraction''' is a form of [[Physical Attraction|physical attraction]] to a person's appearance. It is defined as an attraction to the way someone looks, or how they present themselves. It is typically based on a desire to observe someone because one finds them aesthetically pleasing. It is often described as a similar feeling to looking at a nice painting or landscape. One way of experiencing aesthetic attraction is a stronger desire to admire or gaze at a person
Among [[Allosexual|allosexuals]] and/or [[Alloromantic|alloromantics]], aesthetic attraction is commonly felt alongside [[Sexual Attraction|sexual]] and/or [[Romantic Attraction|romantic attraction]], and is sometimes considered a necessary element of the experience. However, aesthetic attraction can sometimes be felt separately from other forms of attraction. In the [[A-Spec|a-spec]] community, it is typically useful to distinguish aesthetic attraction from sexual and romantic attraction.

When someone wants to show a certain attraction is aesthetic they will put that attractions flag in flower shape.
An alternate flag was created by FANDOM user Zer0Rebel4. Magenta represents alloaesthetics (those who experience aesthetic attraction), pink represents greyaesthetics (those who rarely experience aesthetic attraction), orange for nonaesthetics, yellow for demiaesthetics (those who only experience aesthetic attraction to those they're close with),
Another alternate aesthetic attraction flag was designed by Reddit user u/MIRROR 11 on May 17, 2020.
