Mealexic(on) was coined by an anonymous Tumblr user. Our version of the flag was inspired by the mealexic(on) flag by Ap of Beyond MOGAI Pride Flags.

Flag meaning: the hues are the opposite of the mealexic(on) flag to represent not using male nor masculine terms; white respects unity (because anyone can be uncomfy with male/masculine terms being used on them)
Nonmealexic(on) and its flag were coined by us (The A Collective). The flag was inspired by the mealexic(on) flag by Ap of Beyond MOGAI Pride Flags and our mealexic(on) flag.
