The Transgender flag was created in 1999 for trans and gender-nonconforming communities.Pink and blue stripes play with the colours of the traditional gender binary, while white represents intersex communities. A combination of lavender, white and chartreuse, the Genderqueer flag was created in 2011 to depict a balance between masculine and feminine for those who do not identify with a specific gender. In 2013, the purple and yellow Intersex flag was born.This flag captures the wholeness felt by those born with bodies that do not fit the medicalised gender binary. The 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. In 1999, the Lesbian flag was created.The orange, white and pink shades represent independence, community, womanhood, love and gender-nonconforming people that identify with the label. The pink, purple and blue Bisexual flag was created in 1998 and pays homage to the overlapping desire of those attracted to more than one gender. In 2010, the Asexual flag was created featuring black, grey, white and purple to represent those who might gravitate to the intimacy of human relationships over sexual attraction. The pink, yellow and blue Pansexual flag was created in 2010 to represent those who find love beyond the binary and on all sides of the gender spectrum. Designed in 2019, the Progress flag was created to deepen the intersectionality of the traditional Pride flag, incorporating the trans colours and a nod to Black and brown communities.
