The Pride flag is the most well-known LGBT+ flag, the flag represents homosexuality, bisexuality, transsexuality and queerness. The flag was first introduced in a gay pride parade in San Francisco it was created by Gilbert Baker in 1978 but has changed many times since then. The original flag had eight colours (the six colours it currently has plus pink and indigo) but now it consists of six colours; red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. The colours represent life, healing, sunlight, nature, magic and spirit.
The transgender flag is a light blue, pink and white striped flag and it was first designed in 1999 by Monica Helms but could first be seen in a pride parade in Phoenix, Arizona, in 2000. The light blue colour is supposed to represent males and the pink colour is supposed to represent females, while the white colour in between is representing those transitioning or considering themselves neutral or undefined gender.
The bisexual flag is also a well-known flag. The flag was created by Michael Page and was first introduced in 1998 at the BiCafe’s first anniversary. The flag has two thicker lines of pink and blue and a slimmer line of purple. The pink represents the attraction to the same sex gender, the blue represents the attraction to a different sex and the purple represents the attraction regardless of sex or gender.
The pansexual flag is a magenta, yellow and cyan flag that was created by Jasper V. It first made its appearance on Tumblr in the early 2010s on an anonymous Tumblr account. The pansexual flag was created to distinguish pansexuality from bisexuality and spread more awareness about pansexual people. There are theories that the magenta colour is representing the attraction to women, the cyan colour is representing the attraction to men and the yellow colour represents the attraction to non-binary people. While some believe the magenta colour represents those who identify as women, the cyan represents those who identify as men and the yellow those who identify as non-binary.
