Flag
The term variorented aroace was coined by Tumblr user Varioriented-pride on April 10, 2019[1]. The flag was created in the same post. The blue stripe comes from the oriented aroace flag, used to represent shared aroace-ness. Grey represents the grey area in romantic and asexual orientations. Light yellow comes from the aromantic allosexual flag. Red comes from the alloromantic asexual flag.
