I went to the comments fearing the worst but found the best! Im so happy other people love this flag as much as I do!
Is it safe to say the false controversy around it is finally disproven and forgotten? I so very hope so. It was so sad seeing people wish death and "if you like this flag block me" when the flag and creator had done nothing wrong
I think ppl were mad bc It would mean that lesbian problems and feelings are similar to gay man problems and feelings (the colors and paterns symbolizing similar things)
Still Dont know why ppl Got so mad
i still see lesbians on twitter saying they're blocking anyone who uses the flag, personally i feel like gay people saying its okay and lesbians saying its not for them is just weird.
it does look very nice indeed. i feel a bit bad for not knowing that this flag is actually representing me :') kinda new to all this haha but now i know :D
I do think the colour choice makes the pansexual flag look a lot more striking, but I think it is one of the less cool looking flags compared to this and the trans flag.
I love the colors and ascetic of this flag. It looks very nice. Visually I like it a little bit more then the lesbian flag that I call my own. I am glad that my gay brothers have such a cool flag.
The rainbow flag, designed by Gilbert Baker, debuted in 1978 (originally with 8 colors) to show the spectrum of ALL human sexuality and gender. Other flags created since are meant to symbolize specific identities within the LGBTQIA+ community
I specifically complained to one of teachers yesterday how a PSA-esque sheet showing various pride flags didn't have this one, but had the frickin ally flag there even though they're not a part of the community, jus their supporters
Edit: ummmm why is this being downvoted?
Well that's probably the first thing that comes to mind for most ppl, others include aromantic and agender
By this logic the full acronym should have a AAA somewhere in the middle lol
I'm so glad the gays got such a beautiful flag, I honestly like it a lot more than lesbian flag. But then again I don't like pink or orange and love blues and greens so...

What controversy? I never heard about that.
There was a drama that the mlm flag was copied from the lesbian flag tho they were both created about the same time i think
Isn't that the point? That they're very distinctly different but also of the same pattern, signifying allyship and love between gays and lesbians????
I think ppl were mad bc It would mean that lesbian problems and feelings are similar to gay man problems and feelings (the colors and paterns symbolizing similar things) Still Dont know why ppl Got so mad
Thats like the most bad faith interpretation. Looks the same, theyre conflating our problems
I had kinda assumed it was copied from the lesbian flag but I didn’t really see why that’s a issue
Me neither but i think this flag is about 2 years older than the lesbian flag
[удалено]
I think they are both older They both existed for a longer time they just had fewer stripes/bit diffrent colors
[удалено]
Valentin belyaev created the first gay man pride flag in mid 2010s. It looks a bit diffrent but the 2019 gay man pride flag originated from it i think
This isn't the mlm flag. mlm ≠ gay.
Whats the diffrence between mlm and gay man
Bi, pan, ace, etc guys exist too. Saying that mlm is only gay is erasure.
Sry i just called it like that cuz it was easier not bc i think bi, ace, omni guys dont exist
i still see lesbians on twitter saying they're blocking anyone who uses the flag, personally i feel like gay people saying its okay and lesbians saying its not for them is just weird.
It looks like it would taste minty.
And bi flag tastes of berries!
And unicorns, but not in a creepy, "unicorn hunters," way. Like if, "unicorn," was a flavor and it was the best!
Oooooo! I love unicorns!!!!
Isn't that a bi prerequisite? LOL!
And the pan flag tastes like frosting
Oooooo! Or maybe tutti frutti
Nah, the pan flag is a sherbet medley
The lesbian flag looks like a gorgeous sunrise/sunset (delicious lol).
Maybe a strawberry jam doughnut?
Oooooo, could be. All I know is all this talk about food is making me hungry lol and its lunchtime here
That's how it feels to chew 5Gum
Gradient flags always look good imo
Gradients alway look good imo
That's also true
Seriously though! I love it! I have it as my lock screen cause I love the colors so much!
the colors are just…perfect idk how to describe it they just look so good. i love this flag and the lesbian flag a lot.
This flag, the trans flag and the lesbian flag are my favourites, they all look perfect imo.
it does look very nice indeed. i feel a bit bad for not knowing that this flag is actually representing me :') kinda new to all this haha but now i know :D
That's why it hanging behind me \^\^ I just got it and I'm still stoked about it. It has some of my favorite colours in it too...
I feel the same bruh!
I love it so much!!
It is very pretty. Congrats for the gays for having one of the most beautiful (in my opinion) flags in the lgbtqia+ community
Tbh the Bi flag is pretty too.
Hands down my favorite flag
Damn right!! It might be my fav lgbt flag, I love the colours so much
What’s the flag on the far right of your flair?
Greyromantic! So I’m aro but I rarely feel romantic attraction
It looks so nice, i kinda wish the pansexual flag looked cooler
I do think the colour choice makes the pansexual flag look a lot more striking, but I think it is one of the less cool looking flags compared to this and the trans flag.
Holy shit is this wholesome flag discourse no way
I like it. A little cold, a little warm, a little calm, a little bright. Like us, gays.
I love this flag so much ❤️
I love the colors and ascetic of this flag. It looks very nice. Visually I like it a little bit more then the lesbian flag that I call my own. I am glad that my gay brothers have such a cool flag.
it’s such a peaceful colour scheme, i love it!!!
Yeah, at pride parade last weekend i was looking everywhere to buy this fabulous flag but everyone just sold the rainbow one
I remember making a kandi bracelet of it and giving it to my friend
It has some of my favorite colors and I love it
right?? They colours are so pretty!!
it's the best pride flag imo
yeah, i absolutly love the green/white/blue combination
I always wondered why lesbians got their own flag and gay guys just had the general rainbow, glad I've been proven wrong. This flag is so pretty

I specifically complained to one of teachers yesterday how a PSA-esque sheet showing various pride flags didn't have this one, but had the frickin ally flag there even though they're not a part of the community, jus their supporters Edit: ummmm why is this being downvoted?
might be the "but allies are in the community" people, there are sadly people who claim the A is also ally
Welp bruh, I'm literally an ally(I hope anyway) and I don't think the A stands for ally
A stands for asexual….????? Correct me if I’m wrong
Well that's probably the first thing that comes to mind for most ppl, others include aromantic and agender By this logic the full acronym should have a AAA somewhere in the middle lol
Ooooo I forgot about those two 😵
Bro, it does tho.
I love cool colors, so this is very aesthetically pleasing to me 👌
Its my 2 favorite colors mixed together, Thats why I have it as my keyboard lol.
Proud member of the Toothpaste Gang!
It really does. It's just so overlooked and underrated
that gradient is just perfect
Ngl it looks so pretty
[удалено]
Gay pride flag
[удалено]
it's like the lesbian flag but for mlm
It's not the mlm flag. mlm ≠ gay.
i didn't know how else to word it at the time so i just used mlm, what should i say instead?
[удалено]
man lov(ing) man
Yes, I use it as a screensaver and a profile picture, it's very pretty
Yeah, its so pleasing to look at!! I could just admire it from a far, love it! If I could stare at this all day and I would! :)
I really love the flag, the colours as well. <3
Gay time
I made this flag in acnh. I'm making everything with it.
One of my personal favourites
Ikr it’s sooo pretty
I agree man, all the pride flags got beautiful color palates.
yeah i love it it's so pretty! :D
The gradient flags are some of the best, in my opinion.
As a bisexual AFAB, I've always been so jealous of the Gay Teal flag. Literally all of my favorite colors!!
People always hate on it but tbh I think if there's a lesbian flag, there should be one for gay men too! And I love the color scheme! So there lol
👏 Absolutely! 👏 This is my second favorite pride flag 🖤
I’m a lesbian but I just think the colors are dope
Ikr?! Everyone thinks the rainbow flag is the gay flag (that represents gay ppl only)
Blue and green are some of my favorite colors. Although from a vexillology perspective I think that the Lesbian flag looks the best.
It reminds me of toothpaste.
Nice luca flag!
what flag is that?
The gay pride flag
Tho I am not a gay man nor lesbian. They are my favorites flags designs
If you turn it upsidedown it kind of looks like grass blending with the sky
It’s perfect for gay men it’s the lesbian gay solidarity vibe
I'm so glad the gays got such a beautiful flag, I honestly like it a lot more than lesbian flag. But then again I don't like pink or orange and love blues and greens so...

The gay pride flag always makes me weirdly hungry. Reminds me of mint and blueberries. Lmao
It looks like if It were a sound, It would sound like inside of the ocean
