Why I don't use 'Progressive flag'
And why you should consider not to either.
Short answer? It's not progressive. It's as simple as that. Oh, and it's ugly as hell. And the creator of the OG flag advocated to go back to the older flag before he died.
Seriously, it's a nightmare of a design. Just like saying LGBTQIA2S+ is impossible to properly comprehend. It's simply too busy, too long, there's too much going on. By adding more letters or stripes we lose the meaning.
There are so many flags, are we going to add them all?
The intentions are good, but unfortunately progressive flags are way less inclusive than any other rainbow flag.
You see, pride flag was always inclusive. It has always represented queer POC, and trans people and intersex and anyone else who see themselves as part of the LGBT+ community.
The idea in highlighting certain parts of community that are often left out and controversial in the community had it's reasons. Despite that it's a stupid ass decision that implies people of colour, trans and intersex weren't a part of the community. That the flag didn't represent them.
In 1978, the artist Gilbert Baker, an openly gay man and a drag queen, designed the first rainbow flag, urged by Harvey Milk, one of the first openly gay elected officials in the U.S., to create a symbol of pride for the gay community. Baker saw the rainbow as a natural flag from the sky, so he adopted eight colors for the stripes, each color with its own meaning (hot pink for sex, red for life, orange for healing, yellow for sunlight, green for nature, turquoise for art, indigo for harmony, and violet for spirit).
Baker and a team of volunteers had made the first flag by hand, for the San Francisco Gay Freedom Day parade on June 25, 1978. Quickly he wanted to mass-produce the flag for consumption by all. However, because of production issues, the pink stripe was removed while indigo and turquoise merged to create basic blue, which resulted in the famous six-striped flag.
{source of slightly altered text about the history of the flag}
Since 2003 Gilbert Baker has been advocating to restore the flag to its original 8 stripe state. He died in 2017.
So here's my proposal:
Let's get back to the pink. Let's give it a new meaning. Let's put pink on the 6 striped flag for those of us who were thrown out, just like the pink was, because it was inconvenient to keep us. Nowadays it's not as hard to produce pink, so why not? It doesn't divide or alienate us more, it pays tribute to the old flag while also being distinct and new.

The Progressive Flag !
I made my own take on the Progressive flag! I tried to make it less eye-sore wise and more aesthetically pleasing while also representing everyone nicely! I hope I did the flag justice and people like it!
I made this awhile ago but just decided to post it now because it came across my mind, so I thought I’d share it. I really enjoy the split rainbow with the center Bipoc representation stripes. As well as I think the trans & Intersex symbols being the centerpiece also brings a pop to the whole flag itself :D Anyone can use it of course, as it should be able to be used by anyone who wants to represent the community <3
it's the lesbian flag being last
