Sexual Orientation

Whether you’re gay, lesbian, bisexual, asexual, pansexual, or anywhere in between, we celebrate the full spectrum of identities that feel true to you.

Gender Identity

No matter if you're transgender, genderqueer, intersex, agender or identify with any other gender identity, we celebrate the power of authentic self-expression.

Behind the Design

One flag can’t represent us all. Through gender journeys and self discoveries, wear as many identities as you want on the path called Pride. The 9 hook-and-loop flags celebrate the many communities we are made from and help tell their story.

The Flags

• Intersex flag was born in 2013. This purple and yellow flag captures the wholeness felt by those born with bodies that do not fit the medicalized gender binary.
• Agender flag was created in 2014 with black, white, grey, and green to showcase the fluidity of those who do not identify with any genders at all.
