    I don’t think there needs to be a word that describes the negative of a condition. You just don’t need a descriptor at all. There’s no value add.

    Inject vs eject? Am I being trolled here?

        autistic/non-autistic, asexual/sexual, aromantic/romantic, trans/cis

        asexual and aromantic are already based on being the negative, adding another term to reverse that just makes a double negative

          I mean being romantic or sexual carries some other connotations and meanings making them ambiguous in many situations if used as the antonym to the asexual and aromantic label.
          I don’t really care what words are used for it but I find the allo ones useful as they are the most commonly understood ones and are unambiguous.
