Acespec

The asexual spectrum or asexual umbrella is a group of sexual orientations that all fall under the umbrella term of asexual. People on the asexual spectrum may completely lack sexual attraction or feel it so little that they relate more to the asexual experience than to the allosexual experience. The common link between people on the asexual spectrum is that they do not feel the "standard" amount of sexual attraction or feel it in the "standard" way.

People on the asexual spectrum are often referred to as "ace-spec" for short. Ace-spec people can have any romantic orientation, including aromantic.

Flag
Although the Asexual flag can be used to represent the Asexual spectrum, a flag was created that represents all Ace-spec people, not just focusing on people who exclusively identify as Asexual. The flag was created by tumblr user PotionFlags on July 25, 2020.

The dark blue or black stripe represents the Asexual community, its history and solidarity. The purple stripe comes from the Asexual flag and represents all Asexual identities. The pink stripe represents self-determination, pride in one's identity, and acceptance of one's own and others' asexuality. The cream stripe represents diversity in experiences and types of attractions.
