Happy Pride!!! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Over the course of the month, I’ll be posting stimboards based on various pride flags!
Today is the rainbow, or the progress pride flag! Info/History is at the bottom, if you would like to learn more! ꈍᴗꈍ
In the original rainbow flag, the colors represented:
Pink - for sex (later dropped)
Red - for life
Orange - for healing
Yellow - for sunlight
Green - for nature
Indigo - for serenity (later dropped)
Violet - for spirit
Among these, the stripes added by Quasar, the progress flag creator, mean:
Light blue, pink and white - transgender and nonbinary/gender non-conforming individuals
Brown and black - BIPOC individuals, with the black also representing people living with AIDS and those we have lost to it
