Progress Pride Flag

Valentino Vecchietti is the visionary behind the creation of this flag, which incorporates the intersex symbol into the Progress Pride flag, resulting in a more comprehensive and inclusive symbol.

Polysexual Pride Flag

Polysexual people are attracted to many, but not all, genders. Queer People of Color Pride Flag

Although this flag was used before, 2020 was the year when the queer people of color (QPOC) Pride Flag raised considerably in popularity as a sign of solidarity with Black Lives Matter demonstrations worldwide.

This colorful flag represents not only QPOC but also how the black community and the queer community are often woven together.

To represent that, the raised fist with six stripes in shades of brown, from light to dark, was added on top of a black circle onto the traditional and most current LGBT Pride Flag.

Created in 2013, the intersex flag is a simple but powerful one. This includes trans and nonbinary lesbians, including lesbians who use pronouns other than she/her. Bisexual Pride Flag

Created in 1998 by Michael Page, the bisexual flag represents the increased visibility of bisexual people in the LGBT community and society.

The color scheme is borrowed from the two overlapping triangles used as a symbol of bisexual community and pride.

The inverted pink triangle, a symbol reclaimed from WWII, was used to identify gay men in concentration camps.

Please make sure that if you use the lesbian flag, you are not using it in a way that goes against the core values around which it was created.
