Umbrella term

An umbrella term is a word or a phrase that covers a broad range of related things instead of just one. The things covered by the umbrella are different from each other, but they all belong to the same category. For instance, bisexual is an umbrella term for many identities that share the common trait of having attractions that are not limited to a single sex or gender like sexual orientations that are monosexual. The "bi umbrella" thus includes people who identify as bisexual as well as those who instead or additionally identity as pansexual, polysexual, omnisexual, or multisexual. Other umbrella terms include non-binary and transgender.
