Shadowstraight is an orientation that has one of two definitions:
- An orientation affected by the fact that one is transmasculine, a trans man, transneutral, nonbinary, or just not a woman (includes multigender and genderfluid/genderflux/fluidflux folxs), as they either are dysphoric about being called a woman, and/or experience a disconnection from traditional womanhood. They may describe their attraction as any of the following: MLM; MLNB; MLX; NBLM; NBLNB; NBLX, etc – but they don’t identify their labels as WLM due to reasons listed above. With a multigender and/or genderfluid/genderflux/fluidflux identity, one feels straight when with a woman and/or has a fluctuating level of dysphoria where they may sometimes view their attraction as bennetian (straight/julietian) in nature, or as WLM.
- An orientation affected by the fact one is transfeminine, a trans woman, transneutral, nonbinary, or just not a man (includes multigender and genderfluid/genderflux/fluidflux folxs), as they either are dysphoric about being called a man, and/or experience a disconnection from traditional manhood. They may describe their attraction as any of the following: WLW; WLNB; MLX; NBLW; NBLNB; NBLX, etc – but they don’t identify their labels as MLW due to reasons listed above. With a multigender and/or genderfluid/genderflux/fluidflux identity, one feels straight when with a man and/or has a fluctuating level of dysphoria where they may sometimes view your attraction as darcian (straight/romeric) in nature, or as MLW.
In either case, to express the disconnection, the prefix shadow- is used.
In simpler terms, a shadowstraight may be defined as the following:
- Being multigender/genderfluid/genderflux/fluidflux but never MLW, yet feeling like their attraction to women is strayt. Likewise, being multigender/genderfluid/genderflux/fluidflux but never WLM, yet feeling like their attraction to men is strayt.
- Being m-spec and not WLM or MLW, yet feeling a connection to the label depending on your gender identity.
- Being too dysphoric about being called a woman/girl/being thought of as one, yet being either NBLM, MLM or XLM with a connection to the straight label. Likewise, being too dysphoric about being called a man/boy/being thought of as one, yet being either NBLW, WLW or XLW with a connection to the straight label.[1]
This can also be called shadowduaric.
History

A redesign of the shadow- flags were created by Tumblr user thepokedexisgay. The shadowstraight redesign was posted 28 February 2021.[3]
