List of asexual, grey asexual, and demisexual peopleList of people on asexual spectrum – More simple. Asexual spectrum covers both asexuals and grey asexuals (demisexuals are gray asexuals). Based on List of people who identify as sexually fluid which uses "list of people" first. Xdtp (talk) 20:19, 1 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

This sounds like a great option! As one note, though, I believe there is a difference between grey-A and demi. Demisexuals can be grey-A, but not all grey-As are demi. People who are demi only experience sexual attraction after developing an emotional bond with that person. Grey-As experience some form of sexual attraction at some point in their life. This attraction can be context-dependent, or it can be random. Grey-A kind of serves as a "catch-all" for people who lack sexual attraction but do not feel the labels of demi or ace appropriately define their attraction.[1] Significa liberdade (talk) 22:34, 1 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

"asexual spectrum" coveralls all anyways.
However, "List of people on the asexual spectrum is what I'm supporting, what should be fairly uncontroversial because "the" should precede "asexual spectrum" per the English language. DecafPotato (talk) 00:20, 3 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Support, but also adding "the" as well per English grammar conventions on definite articles, so I support "List of people on the asexual spectrum." Iscargra (talk) 18:17, 3 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, I was unsure of adding "the" but after seeing Category:People on the autism spectrum it seems more appropriate to use the. Is there a way I can add it to the request or it doesn't need? Xdtp (talk) 20:22, 3 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
I don't believe so. Just request to the closer that the alternate title be taken into consideration when they determine consensus. Iscargra (talk) 17:04, 4 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
