Abrosexual refers to an individual whose sexuality is changing or fluid. For example, someone could be gay one day, then be asexual the next, then polysexual the next. While it is possible—and even common—for a person's sexual identity to shift or change in some way throughout their life, an abrosexual person's sexuality may change more frequently, over the course of hours, days, months, or years. Because of their inconsistent attraction, some abrosexual people may not feel compelled to seek out a relationship or may prefer a wavership.
The timing of the fluctuations is different for every person; for some the fluctuations may be erratic and for others they may be regular. The sexualities that a person fluctuates between also varies. Some abrosexual people may be fluid between all sexualities, while others may only be fluid between a few.
The romantic equivalent of abrosexual is abroromantic (or abromantic).
Abrosexuality is sometimes considered part of the asexual spectrum.
Resexual is under the umbrella of Abrosexual, but changes more frequently.
Flag
The creator and meaning of the abrosexual flag are unknown.
History
Both the term and the flag are thought to have originated on DeviantArt in 2013. They gained traction on Tumblr in 2016.
Etymology
The prefix abro- is derived either from the Ancient Greek word ἁβρός (habrós) or its Modern Greek descendant αβρός (avrós), meaning "delicate" or "graceful."
