[[File:Perioriented.png|thumb|The perioriented flag]]
'''Perioriented''' refers to someone whose [[sexual orientation]] and [[romantic orientation]] have identical or similar prefixes. For example, someone who is [[bisexual]] and [[biromantic]], or someone who is [[gay]] (homosexual) and [[homoromantic]] are both examples of perioriented individuals. The noun form is peri[[orientation]].
Most perioriented individuals do not specify their romantic orientation, because one's romantic orientation can be assumed to be the same as sexual orientation unless specified otherwise. The sole common exception to this is [[aromantic]] [[asexual]]s ([[aroace]]s), as they are perioriented but do specify both orientations.
The opposite of perioriented is [[varioriented]].
