Flag and History

Lightninggender was coined by ReversedServers on Scratch on June 3rd, 2021. The flags were made on the same day.

Etymology

The prefix lightning- comes from the English word lightning, which is a biological phenomenon that happens in small flashes. The suffix -gender has an obvious meaning, though combined with the prefix it means "flashing gender" which is similar to Flashgender, alternate name for the term.
