Cecilia Miller is a lesbian love warrior and educator fighting for queer justice and ensuring every shade of the rainbow shines bright & bold!
While many of us are now familiar with the famous rainbow flag, there are also other LGBQT+ flags that each represent the different sex, sexuality, attraction, and gender diversities within our fabulous community.
Even if most queer people identify with the rainbow flag itself, many also desire to fly their own particular flag alongside it. Because, y’all, representation is crucial!
One such flag is the Demiboy Pride Flag – a flag you might already have seen flown at any number of pride festivals around the world, from Berlin to Singapore…and everywhere in between!
A demiboy (sometimes known as a demiguy, demiman, demimale, or demidude person) is a person who identifies with aspects of masculinity—regardless of their sex assigned at birth.
Tumblr user Transrants designed the demiboy flag in 2015. However, he didn’t explicitly explain the meaning behind the flag. However, since then, the community has lovingly adopted this flag, and the demiboys who now identify with it have assigned some meaning to it.
The demiboy flag has three colors. Here’s what they are thought to mean:
- Blue represents manhood or masculinity.
- White represents non-binary or agender identities.
- Grey represents the grey areas and partial connections and the possibility of more genders rather than the two on the binary spectrum.
