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 Demigender Pride Flag – a flag you might already have seen flown at any number of pride festivals around the world, from Madrid to Las Vegas…and everywhere in between!
A demigender (from demi “half” + “gender”) is an umbrella term for nonbinary gender identities and denotes individuals who feel only a partial connection to a particular gender identity. The term covers demiboy and demigirl, along with a variety of other demi-gender identities.
While many demigender individuals prefer to fly their specific flag, there is an overarching demigender pride flag with seven stripes and dark grey, light grey, light yellow, white, light yellow, light grey, and dark grey coloration.
The ‘demi-flags’ greys symbolize fragmentary connections and grey regions, while the yellow signifies non-binary gender identities and the white signifies agender identification.
