Gai ‘n’ Strayt, also known as Gay ‘n’ Straight, is an orientation for someone that feels like their attraction is straight but gay (simultaneously or not). They can be attracted to one or more genders. This could be because one is non-binary or because their partner/the individual they are attracted to is non-binary.

The alternative flag has an additional white stripe in the very middle.
