hodges2 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Is there a name for Queer platonic attraction/desire? Is it just called alterous attraction or is that something different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen of Spades Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Yes, I think so. As far as I understood, "alterous" is a term describing feelings which are not exactly platonic, as in they are more than normal friendship, yet not romanitc in nature.

SamwiseLovesLife Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 @hodges2 How would you personally define this attraction? Just so I can work out the difference between it and normal platonic/romantic desire/feelings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magni Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 I've recently seen the term queerplatonic attraction being used as its own form of attraction. For me, I would consider it a mix of platonic, alterous, and sensual. I have a queerplatonic squish on this one friend of mine, and basically I really get excited about seeing/talking to her and when I do see her, I really want to hug and cuddle her a lot. Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
