Aceflux is a sexual orientation on the asexual spectrum that describes someone whose experience of sexual attraction fluctuates over time. It's characterised by a shifting intensity of sexual attraction.

Here's a breakdown of what that means:

Fluctuating Attraction: The key aspect of aceflux is that the level of sexual attraction a person feels isn't constant. It can vary.

Movement on the Asexual Spectrum: Generally, these fluctuations stay within the asexual spectrum. This means an aceflux person might move between feeling completely asexual (no sexual attraction), gray-asexual (experiencing sexual attraction rarely or under specific circumstances), and sometimes even closer to allosexual (experiencing sexual attraction more frequently).

Intensity Changes: The changes aren't necessarily about who someone is attracted to (that would be more in line with abrosexuality), but rather how much or how often they experience sexual attraction. They might go through periods of feeling no attraction, low attraction, or moderate attraction.

Timeframes Vary: The duration and frequency of these shifts differ for each individual. Changes can happen quickly or last for longer periods.

Aceflux vs. Similar Terms:

Asexual: Asexuality is a lack of sexual attraction. While an aceflux person identifies on the asexual spectrum, their experience isn't a consistent lack of attraction.

Gray-asexual: Gray-asexuality describes those who experience sexual attraction rarely or under specific circumstances. An aceflux person might experience periods of gray-asexuality, but their attraction levels are not fixed there.

Abrosexual: Abrosexual refers to a fluid sexual orientation where the gender(s) someone is attracted to can change. Aceflux focuses on the changing intensity of attraction, typically staying within the asexual spectrum regarding the experience of attraction itself.

Acespike: Acespike describes someone who is usually asexual but experiences sudden, brief, and intense spikes of sexual attraction. While an aceflux person might experience spikes, their overall experience is one of more general fluctuation.

In simple terms, aceflux means that your sexual attraction is not a fixed state but rather something that flows and changes in intensity, typically within the realm of asexuality.
