    But people can’t (shouldn’t?) be reduced to their chosen gender. That’s just, offensive. All people are super complicated and this was the idea behind the initial pride flag celebrating the many different colours of everyone. That’s the part I just don’t get. Other than for marketing, why have such a narrow meaningless flag?

      idk, my city has it’s own flag, and that’s not weird. There’s more trans people in the world than what live in my city, so I don’t see how it’s somehow more narrow and meaningless.

        To be devil’s advocate, why not flags for paedophiles, for abusers, for homeless people, for abused women, for abused men, for family of victims of murderers, for any other group of people I could construct and market to? The quantity really is not important.

          If quantity isn’t important, why bring it up in the first place?

          Also, wow, asking ‘if we have trans flags, why not pedo flags’ is super classy. Good job.
