What Is The Lesbian Pride Flag? The Flag's Nuanced And Ever-Evolving History And Meaning, Explained The omnisexual pride flag was designed by @pastelmemer in 2015, though the exact meaning of the colours isn’t really explained. In November 1978, Harvey Milk was assassinated by a former supervisor, and became an icon of gay martyrship overnight. Demand for the rainbow pride flag soared, but flag makers at that time had difficulty getting hot pink fabric. Hot pink was thus dropped from the flag in November 1978. Polyamory refers to the ability and desire to be in a consensual relationship with more than one person at once.

Before this aromantic pride flag became popular, 2 other flag designs were proposed. In August 2014, Cameron designed a new version of the aromantic pride flag, which features 5 horizontal stripes of different colours. The prevalence of the rainbow pride flag, created by Gilbert Baker, has made it instantly recognizable as a prominent emblem of the LGBTQ+ community. "A true flag is torn from the soul of the people," Baker told CBS Chicago in 2012. "A flag is something that everyone owns and that’s why they work.

The lesbian community is no exception—in fact, there have been multiple iterations of lesbian pride flags created. Let's explore them.
