LGBTQ+ Pride Flags & Their Meanings
LGBTQ+ Pride Flags (& Their Meanings!!!) **Part 1**
Did you know we have the LARGEST Pride Flag Selection in the world?!
There is nothing we love more than pride merch, and that includes flags. With a selection of over 30 different flags, Pride Palace has got you covered. Through our pride flags, you can physically embrace your pride and showcase your support for the LGBTQ+ community. Whether you identify as a member of the community or are an ally, we support you and hope you will display your pride with our flags. Here are the first twenty amazing flags featured on our website:
1. Abrosexual Flag
Abrosexual refers to an individual whose sexuality is changing or fluid. For example, someone could be gay one day, then be asexual the next, then polysexual the next. While it is possible—and even common—for a person's sexual identity to shift or change in some way throughout their life, an abrosexual person's sexuality may change more frequently, over the course of hours, days, months, or years.

2. Agender Flag
While genderqueer people bend the rules of gender, agender people reject a gender completely. For the Agender flag, the black and white stripes represent the absence of gender, while green, the inverse of the gender-heavy purple, represents non-binary genders. If you identify as agender and proud, get your flag today!

3. Ally Flag
An ally, straight ally, or heterosexual ally is a heterosexual and/or cisgender person who supports marginalized groups in society. This flag allows allies to physically show allyship in support of the LGBTQ+ community. If you are an ally, we encourage you to help us in pursuit for normalizing cisgender allyship. If you are LGBTQ+, surprise your ally with an awesome flag!

Many of these different places on the continuum have their own identity labels.

17. Genderqueer Flag
Genderqueer: People whose gender identity does not fit within the male/female binary. The flag was created in June 2011 by Marilyn Roxie in order to create visibility for the genderqueer community and related identities. The flag was originally intended to represent all non-binary and genderqueer people, but as the genderqueer community grew the flag became synonymous with "genderqueer" specifically, leaving many non-binary people to not feel represented by the flag. A non-binary flag was created in February 2014 by Kye Rowan to represent non-binary people specifically.
