Gay
Definition
There are two possible definitions for gay. One definition is men who are attracted to other men. The other possible definition is Non-women who are attracted to Non-women. Both definitions can include nonbinary indeviduals who feel that gay describes their sexuality best and those who aren't men but have other masculine aligned genders. The attraction can also be extended to indeviduals who are nonbinary. Gay is also frequently used as an umbrella term for all queer attractions.

The Gay men flag made in 2019 by GayFlagBoy.
The flag was made to have a flag made specificaly for gay men, as the rainbow flag is commonly used for all queer identities and gay men didn't have their own specific flag. The flag is inclusive to any who use the label of gay man, including those who are nonbinary, those who are on the Asexual or Aromantic spectrums, and those of all religious backgrounds.
The meanings of the colors, in order from top to bottom, are as follows
- Community
- Healing
- Joy
- Gender and Pronoun Non-conforming gay men, nonbinary gays, and transgender gay men
- Pure Love
- Fortitude
- Diversity
Some stripes work together to add even more meanings to the flag. the first two stripes are used to represent Nature, and the last two stripes are used to represent diversity in presentation, relationships, and life experiance.
Some gay men may choose to use just the rainbow flag to represent themself. If you want to find those, they are located Here.
