Lesbian Pride Flag 2019

History

Almost 1,300 (34.8%) respondents voted for the 7-stripes version of this Lesbian Pride Flag in a 2018 Tumblr poll. Lesbian Pride Flag 2019 is a community-authored pride or identity flag. Modern pride vexillology exploded after the rainbow flag’s adoption in the 1970s: today hundreds of designs name sexual orientations, romantic orientations, gender modalities, kink communities, and overlapping marginalisations. Stripes are rarely accidental—activists publish meanings, adjust colours after feedback, and sometimes retire designs when community language moves on. No global registry mandates one definition; conferences, online forums, and local centres negotiate usage. This entry summarises the design when documentary text is thin; prefer the longer description above when Wikimedia Commons supplies it.
