Mavmav, this is complicated because there are a lot of people who aren’t MO and don’t consider themselves Yeshivish either — maybe they call themselves “frum but not yeshivish.” (Which makes it a hard decision whether to choose MO or left-wing Yeshivish if they ever use Frumster.) Some MO tend to call anyone Yeshivish who seems more charedi-leaning than MO, like having a velvet kippa or only wearing white shirts or wearing a black hat, even if the person doesn’t consider himself full-blown Yeshivish.
