Can there be a mention of aplatonic individuals or platonic attraction in general? --MikutoH ^talk! 01:56, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Article Platonic love is probably a better article to discuss it in detail, but we could add a link to it in see also or so if there’s a good context that links it in some way - do you have a specific suggestion on the context to add in in? Raladic (talk) 02:07, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've added it to the aromanticism article, I think that was the best place to mention it.

I felt people would think this label is fringe to be there, alikely how people are dealing with fictosexuality article, which is originally an a-spec identity but now is seen as controversial. --MikutoH ^talk! 02:16, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, I think the addition you made is fine since we already mention platonic love right where you added it.

i think you could still probably add it to the platonic love article if you wanted since it about the opposite of platonic love, but I understand your point that it is a bit novel as a term. Raladic (talk) 02:31, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Biohistorian15, please discuss what you find confusing as the section seems pretty clear - it lists a series of romantic identities that fall under the aromantic spectrum umbrella. Raladic (talk) 16:52, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
