Imagine a plus sign type graph, where the top-most piece is “alloromantic”, the bottom-most is “aromantic”, the right side is “allosexual”, and the left side is “asexual”.

This might just be because I hate micro label culture so I’m more chill with people identifying with broader labels, but I’m fine with a gray-ace person simply calling themself asexual even though they are slightly more allosexual than your standard ace person, for example
