@bluemoonlightgirl you're either dense, stupid, or trolling lmao
Proverbs 16:18 King James Version (KJV)
18 Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
18 Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
Almost two weeks have gone by and still no Straight Pride flags... So we shouldn't be proud of who we are? I thought Subeta supported equality? It doesn't feel like it, unfortunately. :(
@SaboKat
PS - Did look it up myself. Found the wiki on pride stripes, says nothing about male-homosexual or straight colors? Perhaps I'm not as good at googling at you, so instead of the huge wall of re-posts perhaps you can just point me to your source and answer my original questions?

Didn't read your whole psychotic re-posting of other people's posts because I don't have the time, sorry you wasted yours.
As to your personal comments that you actually said yourself. You said that the rainbow flag is homosexual and then said it was also the cover for ALL non-hetero stuff, completely missing and then proving my point. Lesbians specifically get their own flag, specifically. Homosexual males do not? This is my question? They are being left out, it seems? Is my point? And you are raging at me for seeing a problem in the exact thing you care about, about people being left out?
Keith, the site owner, being gay, which everyone knows, is irrelevant to my queries? How... how is that relevant? Do you think I said "All gays should die and I won't ever be party to any gay stuff"? Because otherwise why bring that up?
Love this quote though: "Straight love and sex are EVERYWHERE in the media."
Because straight is still the majority, so obviously the majority will be represented. If the 95% of the world were butterflies, they would write butterfly-centered stories and talk about butterfly-related issues, because they are butterflies. This quote is saying "REALITY IS BIASED" and it is hilarious. (PS I'm not straight.)
You are really going off on tangents against things I didn't think, let alone say. Only asked, remember: Are there gay male colors. Are there hetero colors.
Not every query is an attack. Calm down.

The owner/creator of the site is gay and he made this place as a place he can be gay in. The flags aren't just "preferences" good lord.
@Frankenchokies you are absolutely ignorant
The rainbow is "the homosexual" flag, but is also the main cover for all LGBTQ+
Reread the thread to see why a "straight flag" is nonsense. If you really want to know you'd look it up yourself. It's just black and white stripes.

Your comic would be relevant if someone opened a gay club and I asked, "Where is the club for straight people straights want in?!" They are literally being shunned and literally going to a place of their own, which is irrelevant and unrelated to what I'm asking about completely?
These flags are colors that allow people to identify their preferences and I'm only wondering if there exists a straight one. If you made a "brunette pride" flag and a "blonde pride" flag, I would say "Where is the redhead pride flag?" If there was no WORD for straight I would ask why not and would you shout, "YOU GET ALL THE WORDS LEAVE US ALONE!"
Also didn't answer about the missing homosexual flag. Is it there and I just don't see it?

There's no homosexual flag? A (two) lesbian flag(s) but... no... am I missing it?
(Also is there a set of colors for heterosexual pride? Or are heterosexuals not allowed to be proud without being assumed to be bigots against the other groups?)

There's been rumor of the genderfluid flag being a pedo and the ace flag is associated with AVEN which is lead by a homophobe. Quit dissecting every lesbian flag if you're not gonna do the same to the others, it makes it really obvious that ya'll just hate lesbians lol
@Hoshi
Yeah, it's a logical leap to make when racist comments get dismissed as "some shitty comments." That's a common tactic bigots use, to downplay either their words or someone else's. Racist comments aren't just "some shitty comments."
I won't use the pink flag. If you want to, fine. Hopefully most will move on from it, though. I didn't know the creator of the orange striped flag was an ace exclusionist so thank you for informing me. I'll make sure not to use that one either.

@julian
Yes - truly the only intelligent logical leap, that I am also racist, rather than - I don't know, frustrated over the fact that the lesbian flag gets "updated" every few years and impedes any sense of actual connection or pride. That as a feminine lesbian, I am already invisible, and having my LGBT identifier consistently overwritten feels a lot like an extension of that. Or that I don't give a shit about the character of the creator as an individual, only that their symbol serves its purpose by actually being recognizable!
Did you know the creator of the orange stripe flag is ace exclusionary? Or that creator of the labrys was... a man. Shit y'all, back to the drawing board again.

( P.S. if anyone knows who's comments I screencapped don't give them shit for it, I should have asked before sharing their input. If you have anything to say, say it to me. My inbox/comments are always open ;) )
@Hoshi
"A few negative comments" online is completely inaccurate. The creator of the pink flag is racist, plain and simple. Many people also did not like the pink flag because it was restrictive and unoriginal (just shades of pink). I can guess why you chose to be so inaccurate with your comments. There's really only one reason why someone would downplay racism like that.

I have loads of quest points. If anyone wants some flags or sashes, let me know and I'll send them.
these are great, thank you so much! an aromantic flag would be wonderful if more flags are added later on!
I'd love for some big flags--like backgrounds or something. Maybe in muted colors as well? Having some earth tones would be lovely. :D
Also for straight people complaining about flags--just go to your local straight pride parade, held every day but Sunday at the Chik-fil-A drive thru!

I have got friends and family members with a different nature than straight and I have also straight friends and family. They are harmonieus with each other, because they appreciate each other as person.
They ignore negatieve energy and debate only about sensitive issues with people who have the calmness and patience to think always first and ask to each other like:
"I'm not sure what you mean really. I assume you mean (could be everyting), but do I understand you correct now? Please tell me If I understand you right or not".
Then the debate continues without struggle. It's possible by some people.

Uhhhh I learned about the new lesbian flag off Tumblr... I feel the orange+pink pallettes work really well with it.
...it is disappointing that people are trying to replace what was already the least recognized flag in LGBT (lesbian) with a different version because its creator made some shitty comments online. The orange stripe is only gonna be recognized by people who frequent Tumblr; few enough ever recognized the "old" lesbian flag.
Please keep the sash as is for people like me who prefer to be represented by the old one.

Okay but are we able to get it without having to do quests tho? And can we get it to make the HA hold 2, cause ngl I'd want the Genderfluid and NB flags. xD
Yes! Super happy for these! Not only I can add more pride flags to my pets tcs, but also next pride I'll have more trans stuff to wear yess (Also ugh, can't we just not argue people)
@Discordia19
The black and brown stripes on the rainbow flag are absolutely not disrespectful and I can't even follow the logic of calling them that. Race issues and LGBT+ issues have always been closely linked. Read up on the Stonewall Riots and the history of Pride.
No one's forcing anyone to use the rainbow flag with black and brown stripes but to call it disrespectful is itself disrespectful and ignorant of the history of Pride.

I'm from the Netherlands, so I don't understand every enlisch word.
Nice stuff.
Pride and peace to all of you from an aseksual. Every nature is good as it is.

Jesus I copied the wrong colour run down, since I always get this mixed up. Anyway, here's the meanings. Still not a race thing XD
Red - Life
Orange - Healing
Yellow - Sunlight
Green - Nature
Blue - Harmony
Purple - Spirit

@LilyValentine nice assumption! Very much in the spirit of support and community that Pride is supposed to represent!
Let me give you a quick run down on the meanings of the rainbow stripes:
red - stands for courage
orange - offers the vision of possibilities
yellow - represents the challenge that GREEN has kindled
green - indicates a challenge to co-operators to strive for growth of membership and of understanding of the aims and values of co-operation
light blue - suggests far horizons, the need to provide education and help less fortunate people and strive toward global unity
dark blue - suggests pessimism: a reminder that less fortunate people have needs that may be met through the benefits of cooperation
violet - is the colour of warmth, beauty, and friendship
Let me know where in this you can fit race. So no, the pride flag is not about race. And I will remind you again, that the black stripe already has its meaning and hijacking it for woke points is just a shitty move.
Also, assuming you're not a racist and you want the pride flag to be REALLY inclusive, there also should be a white stripe. And other shades of brown. And a one for the Asian community. Wouldn't you agree?
