Bisexuality & discrimination by Lani Kaahumanu / 1985
Hecatic flag πππ€ππ
Hecatic (dervived from the Greek goddess Hecate) means when youβre bisexual + sapphic, Iβve seen many bi sapphic combination flags and just wanted to make my own :) Hecatic is all bisexual sapphics regardless if they have a specific preference or not, and regardless of relationship status (or lack of) <3
I wanted to make it pink and purple to showcase bisexuality and sapphicism :3 and the flower in the centre is a moonflower! It felt fitting with moons being a bi symbol and a flower on the sapphic flag!

Bisexuality and sapphicism is a gift
the bisexual pride flag was unvelied for the first time on december 5, 1998
the pink represents same gender attraction
the blue the attraction to different genders
purple, the resulting overlap of the two color, represent bisexuality and its uniqueness and entirety
bisexual people can have overlap experiences and history with other communities but we are also a separate and unique sexuality and identity, we are not βhalf straight and half gayβ and we shouldnβt be perceived or treated as such. just like we see purple as its own color.
it was designed by michael page who took inspiration from the βbi trianglesβ also called βbianglesβ, created by liz nania in the 1985
it was important for her emphasizing both bi visibility and its existence outside of binary AND how we have always belonged in the queer community

Made with this starry bi flag!
true to my blog name, i'm proposing a design for the trope reclamation. as far as i know, there are only two other existing versions, and they just don't speak to me.
while i like the one in my current icon, i decided to keep the vague theme and give my flag a hazey pastel vibe mixed with dark, desaturated hues β think of the clouds after nuclear waste when the planet goes into an eternal winter!
there are two versions you can use if you like: one with an off-white/off-black pair bordering the central stripe, and the other without that makes it a familiar bi ratio (2:1:2) format.
