[[Umbrella term]]s cover a group of ideas that have something in common. In this wiki, an "umbrella term" usually means a term that covers a group of [[sexual orientation|sexuality]] or [[gender identity]] labels that have something in common. A person could identify as one of the specific identities under an umbrella term, and/or [[pronouns#they|they]] could identify with the umbrella term itself, if applicable. One problem with umbrella terms is that they can be applied to large groups of people who don't all necessarily want to be identified by that term.
