'''Shadowgay''' is the [[umbrella term]] for [[shadowlesbian]], [[shadowturian]], and [[shadowenbian]], as well as any other [[queer]] shadow- labels. Includes and [[trans]]/[[nonbinary]] people who feels semi-connection to a certain label despite [[dysphoria]] or not being the [[gender]] the label usually pertains to. Being _LW; _LM; _LNB and/or _LX, etc., and feeling [[attraction]] to that same/similar [[gender]] but not necessarily being that gender or being dysphoric about being considered that [[gender]].
It also includes those whose orientation is fluid and/or flux. They may not 100% identify with certain labels due to not being those labels often, or may have a disconnect with the labels. This also includes labels that where one's attraction is fluid between queer and [[queern't]], or can be considered both queer and queern't together.<ref name=":0">{{Archive|URL=2022.09.07-184239/https://sir-eldritch.tumblr.com/post/688241512537047040/shadowgay/}}</ref>
==History==
The shadow- orientations (shadowlesbian, shadowgay, and shadowturian) were first coined by Tumblr user ashix0trender0juice on 19 July 2020, with shadowenbian and [[Shadowstraight|shadowstraight]] being coined later. The flags were made around the same time. The blog has been deleted, but the user remade as [https://sir-eldritch.tumblr.com/ sir-eldritch]. The flags were also redesigned and posted on 27 June 2022.<ref
A redesign of the shadow- flags were created by Tumblr user [https://thepokedexisgay.tumblr.com thepokedexisgay]. The shadowgay redesign was posted 28 February 2021.<ref>{{Archive|URL=2022.01.27-013324/https://thepokedexisgay.tumblr.com/post/644417096637464576/some-more-shadow-flags-some-at-the-request-of-an/}}</ref>
