sennkestra Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 A question for everyone: What kind of colors/words/imagery do you like on your pride swag? With ASAW fast approaching, I’m thinking of putting together some small custom buttons for my local area, but I want to go beyond just the standard aromantic pride flag and the word “aromantic”. 1. Besides pride flags and actually spelling out the words, is there any kind of imagery or symbols that you associated with the aromantic spectrum that you think would be fun to include? (I’m definitely not up to date on all the latest puns and memes) 2. Also, for those who use more specific labels under the umbrella that they wish they had swag for, what are those labels and what kind of imagery (pride flags, puns, or anything else) do you associate with them? (Also, if you could link to your favorite definition of the term, that would be a big to help to me so that I don’t flub it if someone else asks me to explain it). I’ll also eventually post the design files for anything I make online in case anyone else wants to make use of them in the future 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LBMango Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 I just came up with this, so I don't have a firm idea, and maybe it's been done: but something with some pun on arrow/cupid's arrow/aro.... I'm not really sure how that would work.... I kind of want there to be a thing where the symbol of aro is the banana. Because, "Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana". But I'm weird, so don't base anything off of me. Also, It's Monday, and I haven't had enough coffee yet, so I'm a extra weird right now...

Autumn Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 There's always archer imagery (arrows, bows, quivers). I believe the aro community has claimed griffins? And also possibly frogs. Yellow roses are a semi-common symbol since they traditionally symbolize platonic affection while other roses are for ambiguous or strictly romantic purposes. Aro ghosts or space themes would be cool, not because the community really claimed them but because...ghosts and space are nice lol. I think I've seen a few people say we claimed aardvarks? I'm not sure though. As for other flags, the alloaro and aroace flags have become more common, so seeing some of those would be pretty cool! And of the flags used by the spectrum would be good, like the cupioromantic or quoiromantic flags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bydontost Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 im voting for cats all the time, bc they are often seen as aloof and independent but can be goofs and softies too and i think that's fitting for aros :3 I also like yellow roses and arrows!!

time-is-ticking Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Frogs, cats, ghosts, succulents, robots and ice-cream are pretty aro to me. And arrows, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgenfluss Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Definitely arrows. Also, pizza, ice-cream and frogs for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LBMango Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Is frogs just because of green? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
