'''Romantic Orientation''' is a term, or group of terms, that refers to the gender(s) one feels [[Romantic Attraction|romantic attraction]] to and/or how one feels romantic attraction. Typically, romantic orientation labels are derived using a prefix combined with the suffix "-romantic." For example, [[aromantic]], [[biromantic]], [[Heteromantic|heteroromantic]], and [[demiromantic]] are all examples of romantic orientations. Other labels that do not use the "-romantic" suffix, such as [[gay]], [[lesbian]], [[trixic]], etc, can also be used to describe one's romantic orientation.
The sexual counterpart is [[Sexual Orientation|sexual orientation]]. For most [[perioriented]]
Romantic orientation as an identity concept remains very popular in the aromantic and asexual communities, but its prevalence has sometimes veered into being treated as compulsory. For this reason, some members of the aromantic community have had to push back on this expectation with labels such as [[Aro Neu|aro neu]], [[quoiromantic]], and [[quoisexual]].
