Lithosexuality

Lithosexual official flag!

Lithosexual (sometimes known as "akiosexual") comes from the asexual umbrella. Lithosexual means "a person who experiences sexual attraction but does NOT want it reciprocated under ANY circumstances." 

The community did face some backlash (specifically from the lesbian community). They accused lithosexual was "stealing" ideas from the lesbian community. Litho can be translated (as a prefix) as "stone" and lesbians felt this was "stolen" from their community because of the idea of a "stone lesbian". However, many people are not sure how true this idea is since it's debated in both the asexual umbrella and lesbian community. This is why the term "akiosexual" came about.

The flag was created by a user named "thejasmineelf" on Tumblr. I was not able to find an origin year/date for the flag. However, I was able to find what the flag colors mean. The flag colors mean (as per the creator): 

• Red represents community, as it is traditionally a color of leadership, life, and sensitivity.  
• Orange represents lith-ness, as it does on a version of the aro flag.  
• Yellow represents our varied relationships, also as it does on the mentioned aro flag. Yellow traditionally represents friendship, loyalty, and honor. 
• White represents romanticism and sexuality. 
• Black represents aromanticism and asexuality."

I could not find the exact origin of the term. However, Google Trends shows people regularly starting looking up the term "lithosexual" on Google regularly between 2012-2013. 

Lithosexual is a more popular term within the asexual umbrella. Many people within the asexual umbrella can easily recognize the official flag. Many people have heard (in LGBTQIA meeting areas) or seen the term float around online.
