Queer Community Flag

A blog where we will compile all the suggestions for Queer pride flags we come across, so that we may easily browse all the suggestions and discussions around a Queer pride flag, but also works as an archive.

Queer Pride Flag [3]

A suggested alternate queer pride flag to the queer pride chevrons. Not meant as a replacement pride symbol, but more a suggested alternative as a pride flag. This is simply a concept, a draft, and...

So, earlier I was sort of talking about how I feel like the queer chevrons don’t really work as pride flags, as much as I think they just work as queer pride symbols.. So I thought I’d come with some suggestions.

Here’s another suggestion for a design we could potentially use.

I would really appreciate it if you all spread this around! This blog was created to document and archive some of the discussions on the creation of a queer pride flag, to both show it to people in the future, but also to make the current selection of a flag easier.

So feel free to @ this blog if you find anything or have created something, and share this blog with your followers too if you want.

Queer Pride Flag

Image description: [The (lavender and magenta coloured) queer chevrons, combined with the pink triangle in the front, with a black background.] The pink triangle has been used for decades by our community, and has been used a lot alongside the queer movement. The lavender and the magenta chevrons are a recent suggestion for a queer symbol/pride flag. Context: The lavender and the pink colours has often been used by our communities, as a way to show a liberation from the binary. Lavender and magenta being a combination/shift from the "feminine" colour pink and the "masculine colour blue. Which make it function as an indication of non-binariness, androgyny, multigender/non-straight attraction, and liberation from a binary; perfect colours for a queer symbol. The bend in the chevron is also meant to symbolicly signify "non-straightness" or that our identities are not confined within society's norms and not straight forward. The pink triangle has been used by our movement for decades to commemorate our losses, and as a reminder for others that we have not forgotten, as well as a sign of solidarity and a desire for liberation. As these both fit well as symbols, it makes sense to put them together into one banner. (The black background is to signify the typical leftist and radical leftist banners that are often used, like with the anarcho-queer banner, and is meant to reflect the radicalism and the desire for justice/liberty of the queer movement, and by association, the queer identity.) Post note: This graphic is a combination of 2 symbols of our community into 1 banner, to create a queer pride banner. This is not as much meant to be an "official flag" for an identity and/or community, as it is just a graphic that uses multiple queer pride symbols. Feel free to use it, crediting back to me would be appreciated.

Queer is something I’ve reclaimed, the pink triangle is something I’ve reclaimed, queer is my identity. And the prior posters explains the background and the context of the reclamation. If you want to use alternative words, symbols, or flags for yourself, or you have umbrella terms you’re ok with for yourself, use those. But I’m gonna be here, and I’m gonna stay queer, so to each their own, I’m still queer..

okay so after playing around with the chevrons and colour schemes and stuff for a while (read: my adhd decided everything needed to be fixed so i started colouring in a crapton of individual pixels) i’m finally done with my queer flags!

in order, they’re my Asexual, Bisexual, Agender and Poly queer flags :)

[chara-hates-antis]

I mixed the awesome chevron idea from this post and my earlier suggestion from this post  The red is my own little touch

So, I created a Library for all the queer chevron flags so we have them in one place, as you may already have noticed?

Anyways, its @queerchevron and filed under more you can get to a tag page where I sort all the flags that were created by topic and by creator!

I haven’t found every single one yet :/ but I would really appriciate if you would boost this and maybe show me those that I miss bc I think it would be really great to have them on one place for everybody to search through. 

I only reblog with that blog so every creator will be seen! And also @bizexuals @theangrybi you two could, if you want to, also get the password as you are the most active in creating and I don’t claim a monopol on this!

I hope you like my idea with this and don’t think its too much or anything…

@officialqueer @vaspider bc you two are also very invested in this!

[i just noticed that the library does not work as it should and I am angry…I need to figure out why]

[officialqueer]

I’d love to help out with this! Instead of giving out the password though, why not use the members function?

[bizexuals]

alright, so thanks to the suggestions of @istudyhumanhope i’ve updated the single-chevron version to include an off-white color. i don’t know if i’m super happy with the ace version, but i’m working on it & the classic rainbow flag in versions more similar to the bi/pan flags. 

tagging @vaspider @wetwareproblem @theangrybi @queerflag @vergess because i’ve seen them hopping around these posts

if you have a request for me, shoot me a message & i’ll see what i can do

**these are free to use/modify as you see fit. including the color combinations, weights & number of chevrons. they may be used as icons/headers** 

[istudyhumanhope]

[bizexuals]

more queer pride flags/variations. see if you can spot the differences! 

queer gay pride | queer lesbian pride | queer bisexual pride queer pansexual pride | queer intersex  pride | queer aromantic pride queer non-binary pride | queer trans pride | queer asexual pride

based on the updated version of the queer chevron flag, now with 80% more symmetry. the traditional colors of each flag was used, with a chevron design on an off-white background, representing the queering of these sexualities, the inherent non-straightness of queer identity. the chevron is reminiscent of militaristic imagery, reminding everyone of our pride in the radical anti-assimilation of queer identity. 

more awesome identity versions by @theangrybi here and here 

**these are free to use as icons, headers, avatars, as well as for inspiration for your own designs**

if you have any requests, shoot me an ask!
