From "shacking up," 20th century slang for a couple living together without being married. You "shack up" with your "shackup." Despite its earlier negative connotations, it has lost much of its bite. It is often preferred over "domestic partner" and "significant other," due to its more conversational style. Contrasting to "boyfriend" or "girlfriend," it denotes a higher level of commitment and is also gender neutral.
