Although it can be used for any gender, it is most often used for men who are attracted to men.
Date: 2018 Creator: Unknown Flag meaning: This flag represents the men-loving-men community, who did not have a “representative” flag for most of the community’s lifetime. The deep green represents community. The teal represents healing. The light green represents joy. The white represents trans men, non-binary men, and gender non-conformity. The light blue represents love. The blue represents courage and activism. The dark blue represents diversity and inclusivity.
Genderfluid Flag
Genderfluid: People who experience gender in a “fluid”, fluctuating way. The experience is wide and varied-some folks experience intense changes in gender, while others don’t, and these changes happen across different timescales for different people.
Date: 2012 Creator: JJ Poole (The flag has a long history of being hidden in obscurity-photos as far back as 2005 show a similar genderfluid flag) Flag meaning: The pink represents femininity. The white represents a lack of gender. The purple represents androgyny. The black represents the non-binary spectrum of identities. The blue represents masculinity.
Genderqueer Flag
Genderqueer: People who do not identify themselves as strictly male or female-though many have their own definitions of what this means for them. Genderqueer is similar to non-binary. However, some non-binary folks don’t identify with the label of “genderqueer”, and vice versa.

The white in the middle represents the agender spectrum and reflects the white in the middle of the trans flag. The green is the inverse of the lavender and represents non-binary identities.
