Creating the Transgender Flag

So today I'll be talking about the history and creation of the trans flag! This will probably be a shorter post but still equally as important of course

The transgender flag was originally created by Monica Helms, a trans woman from America, in 1999. She got the idea from Micheal Page who had created the bisexual flag a year earlier. Helms describes the meaning of each stripe in the flag as:

"The stripes at the top and bottom are light blue, the traditional color for baby boys. The stripes next to them are pink, the traditional color for baby girls. The stripe in the middle is white, for those who are intersex, transitioning or consider themselves having a neutral or undefined gender."

- Monica Helms

The original flag (pictured below) was later donated to the Smithsonian National Museum of American History in 2014 by Helms.

Later on, in 2019, Helms published a book in which she expresses shock that her flag design has been adopted so wholeheartedly by the trans community. I'd like to end off this post with that quote.

The speed with which the flag’s usage spread never fails to surprise me, and every time I see it, or a photo of it, flying above a historic town hall or building I am filled with pride.

- Monica Helms

Dear trans people,

Please do not let the state of the world right now put you into a state of despair and hopelessness. Trans people have always survived and will continue to survive. Do what you need to do to stay safe and alive. Seek out what makes you happy. Focus on your mental and physical health if you can.

I want this message to reach all trans people. This message is not just for thin, white trans people who pass well and can afford to medically transition (although it is for them, too). This message is for trans people of color with specific, intersectional struggles that white trans people do not face. This message is for trans people who do not pass and cannot use public restrooms. This message is for trans people that are currently living in unsafe areas such as U.S. red states. This message is for Palestinian trans people who are being bombed as we speak. This message is for closeted trans people who must hide who they are for safety. This message is for mentally and/or physically disabled trans people. This message is for psychotic and schizospec trans people who are disproportionately affected by violent crimes. This message is for poor trans people who cannot afford basic amenities like food, water, and shelter, let alone adequate medical care. This message is for homeless trans people, some displaced by their own families who refuse to accept them. This message is for suicidal trans people who are considering taking their own life. This message is for all the trans people who are overlooked, underappreciated, and undervalued.

This message is for you.

Survive. Live. Thrive.
