Acespike

Acespike is an orientation on the Asexual Spectrum defined as someone who usually feels no sexual attraction, but occasionally has rare, sudden, and intense spikes of sexual attraction for a short amount of time, before returning, just as suddenly, to one's normal amounts of Asexuality.

Acespike can be a sexual orientation on its own or can combined with other orientations. For example, one could be Acespike and Gay, meaning that when one does experience sexual attraction it's only towards people of the same/similar gender.

History
The coiner and the coining date of the term are currently unknown, but an early mention of Acespike was in an AVEN forum in August 10, 2015.

Flags
The creator of the Acespike flag has been credited to Cyzu of tumblr blog Pride-Flags-For-Us, but the blog has since been privated or deactivated. The flag was possibly created on or before August 10, 2015.

Some other alternate flags were designed based on the original by Deviantart user Pride-Flags. The two flags Pride-Flags made were posted on Deviantart on August 17, 2015, along with one made by tumblr blog Pride-Flags-For-Us. The third was possibly made by an Anonymous person and was submitted via Pride-Flags-For-Us.

A redesigned alternate Acespike flag was created by tumblr user I-Love-My-Trans-Body alongside an Arospike and an Aroacespike flag on February 2, 2020.
