Hey guys I coined a new orientation term called Duo-

Duo- having two or more well defined orientations that you switch between (e.g. cupiosexual and fraysexual)

I mainly coined it because we’ve been getting a lot of asks about switching between orientations, but usually only a few, and sometimes only in the ace/aro spectrum. It is not synonymous with abro- because that orientation is very fluid, to the point of not being able to be categorized where as with duo- one’s orientation may only switch between a few genders. In addition, the person experiencing this orientation should have a clear or semi-clear idea of the orientations they are switching between. This is so it can be distinguished from other, more fluid orientations like panflux, aceflux, and biflux. 

It may be used by anyone who experiences changing between specific orientations. The orientations may also be complex (eg one could switch between being demi-polyromantic akoisexual and biromantic gray-asexual ) It may also only apply to one area of orientation (eg switching between biromantic masexual and biromantic womasexual)

In theory any number of orientations may be used with duo- but there should not be so many/be so fluid that another term fits better

The term comes from the latin root du- meaning two, but as with the bi- label, there may be more than two orientations that one switches between.
