What Does It Mean to Be Homoromantic?

Is Being Homoromantic the Same Thing as Being Gay?

The answer is, No. Being homoromantic is not the same as being gay.

While homoromantic refers to romantic attraction, gay refers to sexual attraction. But people gay are also homoromantic. Basically, the word “gay” is used to refer to a person who is both sexually and romantically attracted to people who are of the same gender as them.

This explains that a gay person is most likely homoromantic, but a homoromantic person might not be gay.

People who are homoromantic might identify as gay, or they might not. It’s up to you to decide which labels and terms are comfortable for you!
