#new lesbian flag

I made a lesbian flag

I wanted to make my own lesbian flag for fun, and because I have complicated feelings on Emily Gwen. I don't intend to replace their flag but I felt like making one so here it is!

[Image ID: A 7 stripe flag. The stripe colors, in descending order, are: purple; violet-magenta; pink white; reddish salmon; pale orange; pale golden yellow. The second image is the same flag with the assigned stripe meanings, in descending order: gender nonconformity; queer love of women; femininity; unity; lesbian history and diversity; masculinity and those tied to it; nonbinary lesbians and NBLW/WLNB love. End ID.]

Since Emily's is already called the sunset lesbian flag, perhaps this could be the sunrise lesbian flag or dawn lesbian flag. Yeah I like that. Dawn lesbian flag.

Stripe meaning explanations:

1. Gender nonconformity: lesbian history is rich in gender nonconformity. This obviously includes butches and futches, as well as pronoun nonconforming lesbians, trans lesbians, and nonbinary or genderqueer lesbians, but it also includes all lesbians who simply see loving women as nonconformity to traditional roles, something it was seen as historically before it was more normalized

2. Queer love of women: no matter what lesbian definition you use, a lesbian's love of women is queer. Purple is a color often seen in QLW terms, and as such I chose it to represent our love of women

3. Femininity: whether you're a femme or a trans man lesbian who feels a connection to femininity and through his AGAB, the femininity stripe represents all lesbians who feel a whole or partial connection to femininity, or simply have a deep love for femininity and feminine people

4. Unity: despite the fact that the lesbian label has so many different ways to be experienced, we're all united by the fact that we're lesbians. We are a community, united together.

5. Lesbian history and diversity: the lesbian label has a lot of diversity in it. Some lesbians are women who exclusively love women, and some lesbians are bigender boygirls who have split attractions between loving all genders and loving feminine genders. This diversity is backed by the history of the lesbian community and label. But on top of that, this stripe also pays homage to the significance of lesbians in queer history, especially how lesbians played an important role during the AIDS crisis.

6. Masculinity and those tied to it: This stripe is for the butches, the he/him lesbians, the transmasc and trans man lesbians, the lesboys, and all the other lesbians who feel connected to masculinity.

7. Nonbinary Lesbians and NBLW/WLNB love: Nonbinary lesbians have always existed and continue to exist to this day. They are a beautiful part of the lesbian label, and both nonbinary lesbians and lesbians who love nonbinary people are highlighted with this stripe.

I tried to make a 5 stripe variation but it didn't look as nice. This flag is inclusive of anyone who considers themselves a lesbian. All lesbians belong under this flag, and all lesbians may use it, even if I don't personally align with all your beliefs.

Tagging @queer-love-4-women for visibility, if they choose to reblog it.

A NEW LESBIAN FLAG!

Hey! I've been working on making a redesign for the lesbian flag for a while and I don't expect it to pick up or be used a lot but I wanted to make it for myself anyways! Here it is and I'll explain it and why I wanted to make it!

This is what the meaning for all of the colors are. I decided to use these colors despite them seeming initially weird together and are uneven to show that lesbians don't have to be some perfect picture. I picked a purple because its traditionally feminine and a red and yellows to challenge that idea. I also picked these shades of purple instead of the usual pinks/purples because they're clearly different from the older versions. That's also why its yellow instead of orange.

I know no one else has any issues with the sunset flag, but I feel that it's weird how the pinks on the bottom of the flag are still clearly inspired by the old lipstick lesbian flag. It just kind of bothers me. I'm not saying the sunset lesbian flag is bad, I just don't like it. Again, I'm not expecting people to suddenly start using this or it to blow up, but I do hope that it at least resonates with some other lesbians. Thanks for reading!

Flags for: virsian/virsic (feeling gay for men) liersian/liersic (feeling gay for women) rivean (feeling straight for men) reilian (feeling straight for women) avirean (feeling gay for men and women) riverean (feeling straight for men and women) revlian/revlic (feeling gay for men and straight for women) rivlerian/rivleric (feeling gay for women and straight for men)

Transparent .pngs of the symbols: [outline + gradient] [gradient] [plain/no color]

I didn't coin the terms, I just made flags for them. (See the terms' original post here)

───────────────

I got some asks for other terms in that post, and eventually decided to make flags for all of them once I figured out the format (as well as make an alt virsic flag. feel free to keep using the original one though) (original virsic flag here).

I think they came out pretty good :)? I'm open to feedback though.

───────────────

Each has two flags, the first with a symbol and the second is just plain stripes.

The flags' color meanings are: Virsian: blue & green for men, lavender for feeling gay for men, and off white for all genders (since these terms don't specify the gender of the user). Liersian: pink & orange for women, lavender/violet for feeling gay for women, and off white for all genders. Rivean: blue & green for men, grey for feeling straight for men, and off white for all genders. Reilian: pink & orange for women, grey for feeling straight for women, and off white for all genders. You're probably seeing a pattern with the color meanings here. The remaining flags are similar, they're combinations of the above flags' colors with the same meanings, with some minor adjustments (specifically the green and orange of revlian and rivlerian) for aesthetics.

For the symbols: Like originally, the symbols are inspired by the interlocking gender symbols other orientations have. I used a plain circle to represent any/all genders. The colors for the symbols are taken from their base flags, and carry the same meanings. I wasn't sure how to represent feeling gay or straight for a gender using symbols (that isn't just using the same or opposite gender for the other symbol, since this is for all genders), and thought colors might be a way to represent that (there's likely a better way to do it than what I did). They use the main colors green/orange, with a purple/grey gradient for feeling gay/straight. They also have darker outlines to help separate them from the background colors.

lunigirl | soligirl

luniboy: being both lunian (mspec lesbian) and a boy; a boy who experiences gay/queer/etc. attraction to women and is mspec

soligirl: being both solian (mspec veldian/turian) and a girl; a girl who experiences gay/queer/etc. attraction to men and is mspec

[pt: luniboy: being both lunian (mspec lesbian) and a boy; a boy who experiences gay/queer/etc. attraction to women and is mspec

soligirl: being both solian (mspec veldian/turian) and a girl; a girl who experiences gay/queer/etc. attraction to men and is mspec. end pt]

for anon! these use colors from the lunian and solian flags and colors representing boyhood and girlhood. these terms could also be used as a shorter version of 'mspec lesboy' and 'mspec veldigirl/turigirl'.

[fluent-in-lesbianism]

I just saw a girl from high school at the store and she started gossiping about the folks we went to school with and she goes, “did you hear about your ex-boyfriend—” and I instinctively made a face and went “ew” bc I’d forgotten I dated boys back in the day, but she thought I said ew bc I was still upset over “losing him” or whatever, so this girl legit hugged me and tried to make me feel better as if I’m still holding a flame for the 17yo boy I only dated as a 16yo closeted lesbian bc his sister was insanely pretty and I got to hang out with her in her bedroom all the time

(Alt flags and symbols at the end of the post.)

(Also thanks to @julietianboy for the image ids (link).)

──────────✦──────────

I saw this pretty bi4bi flag, and didn't find any cenelian4cenelian and turian4turian flags, so I made some :3 (I did find a couple of lesbian4lesbian flags, but I wanted to make a alt one in the same style as the others.)

──────────✦──────────

The designs for all these, like mentioned, are inspired by this bi4bi flag.

The stripe colours just come from these cenelian, wintergreen turian, and aurora lesbian flags. I added extra colours so they'd have 7 stripes, and adjusted the colours to be brighter. (There's not really any reason for this, I just went with what felt fitting / looked nice with these flags.)

The symbols are also kind of inspired by the bi4bi flag. I liked the idea of overlapping symbols in the middle (which is also kind of like the overlapping gender symbols commonly used). I just chose suns for turian, moons for lesbian, and stars for cenelian. And I think the overlapping connects to the "4" and relationship part of the terms well. Since turian and lesbian can include nonbinary people, I added stars in the middle of the suns and moons for nonbinary (people who wish to be included under those orientations). The cenelian4cenelian symbol is a bit different. When I think of two stars, my first thought is having two stars rotate around each other, but that doesn't really match / make sense with the overlapping symbol style of the other two, so the final design here is a combo of both of those ideas.

I kind of just went with a more artsy style for these flags. The stripes don't have any specific meanings, and the symbols I picked based on nebulous "this seems fitting and nice" ideas, so not my usual flag style I guess. That's also why I didn't include plain stripe versions, since these flags really rely on the symbols to make some sort of sense / be distinct.

──────────✦──────────

turian4turian/veldian4veldian | lesbian4lesbian

While making these flags, I came up with two designs, one with sparkles on the outside, and on in the middle. Having the sparkles on the inside makes more sense, but I like both sparkle designs, so here's alt versions that use sparkles in the middle and on the outside. Extra sparkly versions haha.

Here are the transparent cenelian4cenelian, turian4turian/veldian4veldian, and lesbian4lesbian symbols if anyone wants them. I included outline and no outline versions, plus versions with transparent space around them. The transparent space ones are made so that you can overlay them on a 2000x3000px flag and they will be centred, same as on my flag.
