#or when people kept using the old yellow stripe verison of the current flag instead

A reminder that this is a very special Aro week this year!

Because our lovely Aro flag is turning 10 years old!

Let this year also be a reminder of how far we've come as a community!

When I was a baby AroAce out in the early 2000s, Aromanticism was virtually unknown. It was attributed to misogyny, misandry or being anti-social. But I've seen you guys prove it for almost two decades now, that Aromantics are some of the most wonderful, inclusive and welcoming people out there. And true revolutionaries that redefine what relationships and love and family truly means in this world.

From the loveless Aros to the high love Aros. From the Queerplatonic Aros to the Aplatonic Aros. The AlloAros to the AroAces. The Demiro, Greyro, Lithro, Frayro, Recipro, Quoiro, Aegoro, Aroflux and all the other Arospecs under the umbrella. Whether you are starting to be recognized or still fighting to be visible.

We are all valid, and we have all come so far! So celebrate yourselves and your community this year! We're all amazing!

I can't wait to see how far the next decade will take us~
