#poly pride flag

[imustbeamermaidrango]

The votes are in and the new Polyamory Flag is here!

The intention behind this design was to create a simple, bold tricolor, with a contemporary approach to traditional vexillological (relating to the study of flags) elements from the original “Pi” flag.

It takes the best of the original flag, including its color symbolism, and improves on those elements of the Pi flag which alienated viewers.

A white chevron flows outward to depict the growth and possibility of the non-monogamous community. It sits asymmetrically on the flag to reflect the non-traditional style of polyamorous relationships.

The heart reminds us that love in all forms is the core of non-monogamy.

As in the original polyamory flag:

Red stands for love and attraction.

Blue stands for openness and honesty.

However, this redesign also makes thoughtful alterations:

Gold represents the energy and perseverance of those in the non-monogamous community.

Purple to represent a united non-monogamous community.

Polyamorous pride!

Have you heard about a vote for new polyam flag?

What are your thoughts?

I have heard about The Vote 🗳️, which is running until November 22

I have mixed feelings. 😖 I won't be weighing in on any particular 🚩designs, simply because this blog has a following of several hundred and I don't want to sway anyone who wants to vote. (I did vote myself.)

I think the group putting it on has amazing intentions and sought a lofty goal, and I respect that. I love the idea of us having a widely accepted flag the community can actually get behind. I think their social media campaigns have also helped push polyamory to a wider audience. I like that they had a diverse and knowledgeable panel to select finalists. I really respect their commitment to having a creative commons flag.

Having said all that, and with acknowledgment there are likely very good reasons why some of these things aren't easy to address, I'm not McLovin' it. I think most the designs miss the mark and a lot of the color symbolism stated of the new designs are unintuitive (though I concede that is a common issue with pride flags lol). I dislike that none of the options pay homage to any popular designs (the infinity heart symbol, the colors 💙❤️🖤, etc). Most importantly, I feel this risks further splintering our community's means of representation.

The day the "new poly flag vote" people start including the option to vote for sticking to the old design is

the day their survey will actually start to mean anything instead of excluding a massive part of polyamorous people

also the day that I stop blocking every account that shares the survey or promotes their new flag as representative in any way

No me gusta el amor.

Porque se siente cálido y frío, te llena y te vacía.

Te consume con su cálido manto y te quema sin enfriarse jamás.

i was gonna make a post like "this pride month, pour one out for the polyam folks for having the worst flag"

(and like, i know theres been a bunch of flags, but this is the one i've seen the most)

however! when i went to google the polyam flag, i found this website, where they apparently held a vote for a new flag that accurately represented the community (and, presumably, didn't look like absolute dogshit), and they apparently settled on this one!

i hadn't seen it before, but I think it looks really nice and if you check their website, it seems like they have good reasoning/backing/community support, so I really hope I see it around more!!!

Intro post!

Hey! I'm Finnley. I'm a minor, non binary *them/them/theirs pronouns please* I'm a lesbian *tenically trixic because I'm enby but yeah-*. I'm also ace(asexual) and polyamorus. If you don't know what polyamorus is, basically I date multiple people at once with the consent of all those people. I'm in a relationship with my girlfriend, Breilyn, for almost a year and a half now.

DNI if phobic of any LGBTQIA+, if racist, or if you're just gonna be a rude person

Love you all 💛

-Finnley

AFTER SO MUCH TIME, I HAVE FOUND ME AND BESTIE'S FLAG WE MADE!!!!

I am Sonu, and I shall call my bestfriend after The Outsiders characters (You're welcome, Johnny. >:] )!

It began because of a "TikTok" I saw of somebody with short, blonde hair. They said, "Our flag is why we have no rights" xD

I'm disappointed the tags have legit TWO RAINBOWS- Lemme see if "#rainbow" is rainbow..? Now pray to Gods above they don't find my account-!

~ I am terrified. :D .

The NEW POLYAMOROUS flag color-picked from JACK IN THE BOX

[nightfallsystem]

I hate the new polyamourous flag it feels like forgetting our history and a kick in the face.

I get the original one is eyestrain and that's why people make eyestrain accessible flags! But fucking ditching the original flag in favour of this shitty redesign is shit and feels like forgetting history for me. We don't need a new flag, the original one is fine, the creator is good and the symbolism is good. The new flag is shit imo.

Fuck the new flag
