#plato repulsion
Note
Plato repulsed aro culture is thinking about how rapidly society would advance if the arospec community would start saying "nonromantic" instead of "platonic"
yeah, and if other people also started doing this. (bc I see ppl outside the aro community do this a lot too)
see also : if people would start saying 'nonsexual' instead of 'platonic' if thats what they actually mean
Its okay to say platonic to mean friendship, but it can be really annoying when ppl keep saying 'platonic' as if its merely an absence of romance and/or sex, and as if romance and/or sex can't occur alongside friendship for some people.
Also when aros and other ppl don't want me to assume theyre expressing romantic attraction or something, they can just say they mean it nonromantically instead of platonically bc it would cause me to feel repulsion if they expressed platonic feelings/attraction for me.

The lack of consent on friendships has always disturbed me.
Platonic/amical relationships are the only type of relationship that you can be entered into without even been asked.
Friendships "just happen". You aren't supposed to be asked or ask people to be your friend, that's a silly thing kids do because they don't understand. People can just call you their friend and you have to accept it.
And if you don't want to reciprocate the title you were given without even been asked, if you don't want to enter that relationship with that person, YOU are the bad person; because we aren't supposed to reject friendships.

So tired of hearing people say “But aplatonic people can still have friends!!!” as a way to justify our existence. Like, what if I don’t want friends? Has anyone stopped to consider that? Has anyone ever considered that you can have a happy and fulfilling life without friends??

There's these idea outside and within aro spaces that aro people have to be plato favourable or/and see their platonic attraction and relationship as the most important. Even when they take aplatonic people into account, it's always because "they can still have friends/be in platonic relationships"
But, that's not my case. I'm nonfriending and I don't desire qprs. I'm apothiplatonic and either apothiqueerplatonic, inactqueerplatonic/orchidplatonic or a mix of both (not sure if I'm aqpl or greyqpl ~ light-alloqpl. At the same time, I'm cupioromantic, cupioqueerromantic, and cupio any other type of relationship that resembles romantic ones.
I feel romantic and romo-adjacent relationships are more important to me than platonic and plato-adjacent ones; and coming from a plato-centric society that sees friendship as the most important kind of human connection, THAT is one of the queerest aspects of my identity.
To me, there's nothing revolutionary about centering friendships and pushing platonormativity because I've been surrounded by plato-centric, platonormative people and institutions since I was born.
Not only that, but as an ND person, "being friends" was a tool used by NTs to gaslight, ridicule and bully me. Seeing people in a space that should include me (because I AM AROMANTIC) put into a pedestal the kind of feeling and relationship that was/were used as a tool to harm me, makes me feel alienated from those spaces I should feel welcomed into.
Because no, I'll never feel friendships are better or even at the same level of romantic one. I'll never see friendships as healthier than romantic relationships; In fact, the lack of (concept of) consent regarding platonicity/friendships disturbs me. They aren't "less harmful than romance" to me, because no other type of bond, feeling and realtionship has harmed me/been used to cause me harm as much as friendship/platonicity.

Being a plato neutral-to-repulsed aplatonic aro checking the tags on Valentine's Day is just this:

Plato repulsed culture is feeling excluded from aspec communities because your kind of relationship anarchy involves rejecting friendship/putting friendship last instead of the other way around
Yeah. This is also why I feel disconnected from the label of relationship anarchy bc so much of it emphasizes that you have to care about family and friends and its like. no thanks I dont even WANT those relationships. People forget that relan is just not having a hierarchy based solely on societal ideals, and emphasizing consent and boundaries in relationships of any kind. It doesn't have to be "care a lot about friendships" bc ppl who dont have and/or want friends do exist!!

My Redesigns of the Plato Repulsed Flag
As the original one contained yellow as the color (something I find reductive as Im plato repulsed apl and associate blue more w the apl flag and disconnect from platonicism, and I don't like the yellow color in the old flag bc it represents platonic), I wanted to make some redesigns of the plato repulsed flag!
This one is meant to align more closely with the more commonly used repulsion flags
This one is the same but with the colors close to the aplatonic flag colors
This one is inspired by the -repulsion flags made by @/xenoic-verxeno on tumblr !!
(Blank version)
(Alternate color for x symbol)
Just a reminder that this label is for anyone who experiences plato repulsion ! (Regardless of platonic orientation - its not just apls who can be plato repulsed and not all apls are plato repulsed. Also inclusive of plato-ambivalent and plato-oscillating etc. people who find this term relevant to them!)
(-Rift)

Broke: Solving bullying means getting kids friends! Because, you know, bullies like to pick on kids that are alone. We need to support initiatives like “Say Hello Day”! Encourage kids to join clubs and make friends! Wait, there are some kids who don’t want friends? Huh? I didn’t know they existed. Well, at some point it becomes their fault they’re getting picked on, right?
Woke: EVERY kid deserves a safe and supportive environment free of bullying, regardless of whether they do or don’t want friends, and we need to radically change the culture of our schools and society if we’re going to stop bullying. “Getting kids friends” won’t solve the problem.
