What is the Polysexual Flag? A Comprehensive Guide
When it comes to representation, every color on every flag carries significant meaning. In the case of the Polysexual Flag, the hues are vibrant, and each one represents a unique aspect of polysexuality. The flag, redesigned in 2020 by an anonymous wiki user, combines the pink, green, and blue stripes from the original design with lighter shades to reflect the experiences of polysexual individuals and peace within the community.

The Meaning Behind the Colors
Let's break down the colors and their meanings:
- Pink: Represents attraction to female-identified individuals.
- Green: Represents attraction to people who identify outside the traditional male-female binary.
- Blue: Represents attraction to male-identified individuals.
The Design of the Flag
The design of the Polysexual Flag embraces the diversity within the polysexual community, emphasizing inclusivity and respect for individual identities. Its design is based on the bisexual and pansexual flags, borrowing the blue and pink and replacing the purple and yellow stripes with green ones. The additional lighter pink and blue stripes stand for polysexual individuals, while the light green, almost white stripes represent peace, poly, and transgender individuals.
Polysexuality and the Multisexual Umbrella
Polysexuality, much like bisexuality and pansexuality, is the attraction to multiple genders, but not necessarily all. It's a middle ground, focusing more on attractions to femininity and masculinity rather than gender itself. The Polysexual Pride Flag, created in 2012 by a Tumblr user named Samlin, includes three colored stripes – pink, green, and blue. Samlin's design, like the Polysexual Flag, borrows from the bisexual and pansexual flags, all of which fall under the multisexual umbrella.
