Similar to greenwashing, the act of adding something to your product, advertisement or TV show to make it gay to make sure you're being politically correct.
The new Token in TV shows is having a gay character or couple, even if the actor is clearly hetrosexual. "Every sitcom I watch has been practicing gaywashing. if they don't have a gay sub-plot, they're just not PC, so they have to add one."

Gay ɡā Washing ˈwäSHiNG - The act of altering source material and misinterpreting cannon of character or story to fit a LGBTQ+ narrative. Usually after the founder, or the previous owner has either died, or signed the company over to new owners.
Person 1: "I was reading in an article recently that this character was actually secretly gay, the funny thing is that the original author never mentioned it, or left anything for interpretation in the book to make me believe this."
Person 2: "Well this is a classic case of "Gay Washing". Now that (Walt Disney/J.R.R Tolkein/Stan Lee) has passed its easy to proclaim that in a news article, now that the creator has passed away."
