hi i made a new lesbian flag, since some of the others new proposed never caught my eye and some were kinda eye strainey
b
meanings from top to bottom:
violets - historical meanings, lesbians have been here for a long time, and we can’t forget our history!
blue violet -for butches, a somewhat mix between violet and blue, based on leslie feignburgs book “stone butch blues” the blue mixed with violet is the complicated relationship between gnc some butches experience and their for other women.
lilac - trans lesbians, based off the trans lesbian flag, which is a somewhat lilac purple color
cream - for all lesbians, our unity. whether you’re trans, nb, ace lesbian or aro lesbian, disabled, a person of color, mentally ill/neurodivergent, chronically ill, butch femme or neither, etc. this community is a place for everyone (except for terfs)!
light pink - nb lesbians, based off the pink in the nb lesbian flag!
raspberry - for femme lesbians. it’s a somewhat cloudy color, representing even us femmes complicated gender relationships.
dark pink - the sensuality, romanticism, sexuality, love, friendship, freedom, and everything good and amazing about healthy lesbian relationships, friendships or romantic!
why’d i make a new flag?
as a latina asian lesbian i felt uncomfortable with the original creator of the lipstick lesbian flag as she is biphobic, racist and fetishistic to women of color, and she hates butches. these go against what many lesbians believe; butches are the reasons we are femmes, bi girls are out sisters, our friends, our wives and girlfriends, and if not for (trans!!) women of color we wouldn’t be where we are today.
