Pride flag
These flags are often created by amateur designers and later gain traction online or within affiliated organizations, ultimately attaining a semi-official status as a symbolic representation of the community.Gilbert Baker designed the rainbow pride flag for the 1978 San Francisco Gay Freedom Day celebration.In the original eight-color version, pink stood for sexuality, red for life, orange for healing, yellow for the sun, green for nature, turquoise for art, indigo for harmony, and violet for spirit.[4] A copy of the original 20-by-30 foot, eight-color flag was made by Baker in 2000 and was installed in the Castro district in San Francisco.The white stripe represents the importance and validity of non-romantic forms of love, which include friendship, platonic and aesthetic attraction, queerplatonic relationships, and family.[9][10] The asexual pride flag consists of four horizontal stripes: black, gray, white, and purple from top to bottom.Page chose a combination of Pantone Matching System (PMS) colors magenta (pink), lavender (purple), and royal (blue)."[17] He also described the flag's meaning in deeper terms, stating "The key to understanding the symbolism in the Bi Pride Flag is to know that the purple pixels of color blend unnoticeably into both the pink and blue, just as in the 'real world' where bi people blend unnoticeably into both the gay/lesbian and straight communities.[20][21] The design of the biangles began with the pink triangle, a Nazi concentration camp badge that later became a symbol of gay liberation representing homosexuality.[26][27] The design involves a labrys, a type of double-headed axe, superimposed on the inverted black triangle, set against a violet background.[53] It was flown from a large public flagpole in San Francisco's Castro District beginning November 19, 2012, in commemoration of the Transgender Day of Remembrance.Helms described the meaning of the flag as follows:[54] The stripes at the top and bottom are light blue, the traditional color for baby boys.
