'Heteroromantic homosexual' means one is romantically attracted to the opposite sex, is not sexually attracted to the opposite sex, is sexually attracted to the same sex, and is not romantically attracted to the same sex.

Ow! My head...

The split attraction model is based on a misunderstanding of the philosophical concept of platonic love. In Plato's writing, 'carnal love' is a step for platonic love and they don't exist mutually separated from each other as most tend to believe.

The people that peddle the split attraction model tend to conflate close friendships with romantic love like compulsive shippers. As with the whole 'genital preference' shit, this occurs mainly because most of them are touch starved inexperienced colege kids.

Most people (men and woman alike) think this is either:

  • A gay men taking a beard

  • A bisexual men that wants to still sleep around with other men while in a relationship with a woman
