== History ==
Historically, the term "straightqueer" was slang for a [[gay]] person presenting themselves in a metropolitan and "[[Straight passing|straight-passing]]" way.<ref>[http://graphbooks.com/index.php/app/detail/straightqueer An archived zine from 1972 about gay culture in Berkeley, California, entitled "Straightqueer." (Warning: This is an older site and may not be secure.)]</ref> By the early 2000s, the term and its known variations also applied to (assumed) straight people in queer meeting spaces.<ref>[https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1057/palgrave.fr.9400117?journalCode=fera Scholarly article entitled "Heteroqueer Ladies: Some Performative Transactions between Gay Men and Heterosexual Women" published in ''Feminist Review'' in 2003.]</ref>

The current definition and first heteroqueer flag was created by Tumblr user beyond-mogai-pride-flags on June 29, 2019.<ref>[https://beyond-mogai-pride-flags.tumblr.com/post/185937857940/heteroqueer-pride-flag Tumblr post on straightqueer.]</ref> A simplified version of their flag was created by FANDOM user [[User:Homesick_Moonstone|Homesick Moonstone]] on December 16, 2020.[[File:Static-assets-upload10745202555671514959.png|thumb|Scourgeface's flag with white circle]]The queerhet flag was created by Tumblr user xenogender-aligned on December 19, 2020.<ref>[https://xeno-aligned.tumblr.com/post/637927974464897024/id-a-flag-with-three-downward-facing-chevrons Tumblr post on the queerhet flag.]</ref> The flag is a combination of the queer chevron flag’s style and colors with the straight flag’s monochrome color scheme. The different shades represent the vast spectrum of experiences queerhet can include.

▲An alternate straight queer flag was created by FANDOM user [[User:Scourgeface|Scourgeface]] on January 12, 2021. The lavender stripe represents trans people, the pink binary women and women-aligned people (including through a multigender experience), the yellow non-binary genders, the green aro-spec people, the blue binary men or men-aligned people (including through a multigender experience), and the purple ace-spec people.
[[User:Scourgeface|Scourgeface]] also created the same flag but with a white circle in the center. The circle is white because white is all light and therefore all colors, representing all pride flags. The circle shape encircles every identity/group that is not specified by the stripes, or for those who technically fall under a stripe but don't connect with it specifically (ie. nonbinary falls under transgender however not every nonbinary person identifies with being trans.)
