Gold Star Family

A modern generalization (presumably removing gender specificity) from the terms of Gold Star Mother and Gold Star Wife, both of which have been formally applied to the relatives of US Servicemen (and Servicewomen) who died since World War I and World War II.

see www.army.mil/goldstar/

The term Gold Star family is a modern reference that comes from the Service Flag. Gold Star Mothers, as well as all Family members who are grieving a military loss, will always be cherished members of the Army Family.

Gold Star Bi

A term in the same vein of Gold Star Gay (a gay man who's never had sex with a woman) and Platinum Star Gay (Gold Star Gay born via cesarean section) and Gold Star Lesbian (lesbian who's never had sex with a man). This 'Star System' is inherently harmful and transphobic. However, calling oneself a Gold Star Bi is simply a way to subvert the purity politics of the system and affirm oneself as a Bi person without any exclusive criteria. First used in a comment on a Reddit post by a now deleted account.

"I'm a gold star bi. The gold star has nothing to do with bisexuality, I've just been good and decided to give myself one :) You can have one too ⭐️"
