※ Pareil is when you look at a person, wonder “Do I want to date them or be them?” And the answer is “Both.”
On a more serious note, this term aims for the blurry distinction between gender envy and attraction (of any type). For those who can’t, or don’t want to, distinguish between the two. Their ideal gender (presentation) is their orientation, or vice versa.
Can be used as pareiloriented, pareilsexual, pareilaesthetic, pareilgender, etc. Pareilgender may be considered an orientationgender.
Example: a feminine boy who is aesthetically attracted to feminine boys and feels like their attraction is influenced by what they get gender envy from / what their ideal presentation is could call themselves an pareilaesthetic Rosboy.
※ Etymology: From the French pareil meaning “(the) same, alike, like”
※ Note: This term was originally conceptualized using the french word for mirror, miroir, instead. I dropped this because I know there are a few terms using mirror- already and I was worried it’d be too similar to those, I still encourage the use of miroir as a synonym to pareil tho, it sounds very neat
※ This term is purposefully a little vague because putting concrete rules on a term like this only unnecessarily makes people feel alienated in my experience, if you related to the introductory first line you’re more than likely the demographic the term aims for and free to use it!
※ Fun fact: This term started out a little light-hearted but I did also seriously vibe with it once I had written down the concept
