Yeah, that too for sure. Gender also is starting to be viewed in a less rigid way, and as something that can sometimes change or be described differently at different times, similarly.
I'm ace but not aro, so I never know quite what to do with the usual sexuality labels because they treat sexual and romantic attraction as the same thing. If you don't experience one of those types of attraction, or if your romantic and sexual attraction point in different directions, the usual labels alone don't really suffice to describe that. Even 'asexual' is often automatically assumed to mean 'aromantic' too.
