Homoromanticism

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Homoromanticism is a romantic orientation. A homoromantic person is most likely to have romantic relationship with a person of the same gender or sex. Homoromantic people can have any sexual orientation.[1] The term homoromantic is useful for asexual people to express their affection.[2] Some homoromantic people may also identify as lesbian or gay man.

The term was created in on-line communities, such as Asexual Visibility and Education Network.[3][4]
