Lesbian flag

The Lesbian flag is a symbol of the lesbian community. Although there are several, no single design for the lesbian flag has yet been widely adopted.
History.
 
The labrys lesbian flag was created in 1999 by graphic designer Sean Campbell, and published in June 2000 in the Palm Springs edition of the "Gay and Lesbian Times" Pride issue. The design involves a labrys, a type of double-headed axe, superimposed on the inverted black triangle, set against a violet background. Among its functions, the labrys was associated as a weapon used by the Amazons of mythology. In the 1970s it was adopted as a symbol of empowerment by the lesbian feminist community. Women considered asocial by the Third Reich because they did not conform to the Nazi ideal of a woman, which included homosexual females, were condemned to concentration camps and wore an inverted black triangle badge to identify them. Some lesbians reclaimed this symbol as gay men reclaimed the pink triangle (many lesbians also reclaimed the pink triangle although lesbians were not included in Paragraph 175 of the German criminal code). The color violet became associated with lesbians via the poetry of Sappho.
The "pink" lesbian flag consists of six shades of red and pink colors with a white bar in the center. The design is derived from the lipstick lesbian flag, which includes a and was introduced in the weblog "This Lesbian Life" in 2010. The lipstick lesbian flag represents "homosexual women who have a more feminine gender expression" and has not been widely adopted; however, its non-kiss pink variant attracted more use.
An "orange-pink" lesbian flag modeled after the seven-band pink flag was introduced by Emily Gwen on Tumblr in 2018, with colors including: dark orange representing 'gender non-conformity,' orange for 'independence,' light orange for 'community,' white for 'unique relationships to womanhood,' pink for 'serenity and peace,' dusty pink for 'love and sex,' and dark rose for 'femininity.' The flag was also meant to include trans women. A five-stripes version was soon derived from the 2018 colors.
