FAQ about genderqueer

What do the colors in the Genderqueer flag mean?

The Genderqueer flag was designed in 2011 by Marilyn Roxie and is one of the oldest flags representing non-normative gender identities. The flag was created for people who identify outside of, or in opposition to, traditional gender roles and norms.

The flag consists of three horizontal stripes:

  • Lavender/purple (top): A mix of blue and pink, symbolizing androgynous and blended gender identities.
  • White: Represents agender identities and gender neutrality.
  • Green (bottom): A color opposite lavender on the color wheel, symbolizing those who identify outside the binary gender system (neither male nor female).

The Genderqueer flag is used by people who challenge traditional ideas of gender and seek the freedom to define themselves.

What does it mean to be genderqueer?

Genderqueer is a broad term for gender identities outside the traditional categories of male and female. It can include mixed genders, no gender, or fluid experiences.

Is genderqueer the same as non-binary?

They overlap, but aren’t always the same. Non-binary is a gender identity, while genderqueer can also express a rejection of gender norms — often with a political edge.

Can someone be genderqueer and still use he/she pronouns?

Absolutely. Many genderqueer people use traditional pronouns, while others prefer “they/them” or different ones entirely. It’s about what feels right to the individual.

Is genderqueer a new identity?

Not at all. While the term may be modern, genderqueer people have always existed — just without recognition or vocabulary. Visibility today helps foster understanding.

GENDERQUEER – THE FREEDOM TO BE YOURSELF

Genderqueer is about breaking away from traditional gender norms and embracing the freedom to express your identity – whether you feel like both man and woman, neither, or somewhere in between. It’s about authenticity, independence, and the courage to live as yourself on your own terms.

The Genderqueer flag, created in 2011 by Marilyn Roxie, features three colors with distinct meanings: purple represents the androgynous and the balance between masculine and feminine, white stands for agender and gender neutrality, and green symbolizes identities outside the binary gender spectrum.
