My comic for this issue gives an overview of a few of the different forms aromanticism can take. Often conflated with asexuality, aro is its own separate thing. The fact that the two often present together doesn’t mean that aromantic people are automatically asexual, though. And it’s also not true that aromantic people are incapable of feeling love, even romantic love (demi aro and gray aro, for example, fall under the general aromantic umbrella).

You can read the full comic on the OFM website, where you will find me on page 6: https://www.outfrontmagazine.com/july-2024-rainbow-reflections/

Cheers,
