Apolista

/ˌæp.əˈlɪs.tə/ noun

Definition

A person who practices or advocates for apolegamy, or in some contexts, someone who rejects the institution of marriage.

Etymology

Derived from Greek 'apo-' (away) and 'legamos' (marriage), with the suffix '-ista' (one who practices). This rare term emerged in philosophical and social discourse about alternative relationship structures.

Kelly Says

Before modern dating apps, apolistas were fringe philosophers questioning why society demanded marriage—now millions live unmarried lives without a special label for it!
