HAPPY PRIDE MONTH ALL OF YOU. this includes the transtrenders, and the xenogender people, even, especially, if you hoard labels and have 70 different neopronouns you use, and mspec lesbians and mspec gays, and the lesboys, the gaybians, and the turigirls, and the afab transfems and amab transmascs, yes even the perisex ones, and the aros and aces and apls and other atertiaries who are disgusted and loveless, and the alloaros who are very positive with sexuality, and the cishet aro/ace/etc men and women, and the intersex people who have consistently been ignored by the wider and broader queer community for having complicated experiences with gender and sexuality, and the transmasculine people and the trans men who have to deal with being told that oppression against them doesn't exist, and the transfeminine people and trans women who are told their existence is inherently sexual, and the transneutral people who are always forgotten about in conversations and treated as less trans, and the transhet people who are told they're not queer enough, the queer poc who are constantly ignored and pushed down for their existence, and the queer elders who have to hear younger queers demonize decades old identities in the name of discourse, and everyone else i didn't mention. you deserve to have a good pride month too.
exclusionists, transmedicalists and similar who clown on this post will be publicly shamed. <3

Trans Flags
I made a post with 4 striped trans flags a while ago, but I wanted to revisit it with some new edits/flags.
(Not all of these are mine, I just like having everything together as a set. I'll also be splitting them into sections, since there are a lot of flags.)
──────────✦──────────
transmasculine/transmasc ★ transfeminine/transfem ★ transnonbine/transenbine/transnbine/transnonbinarine
(Note: nonbine, enbine, nbine, and nonbinarine are words for nonbinary gender quality, nonbinary versions of masculine, feminine, etc. The first 3 I came up with, and nonbinarine comes from here.)
✦ All these flags follow these trans flag formats. The white and grey black stripes are the same for all of them, and the only thing that changes are the center 2 stripes, for the respective gender qualities.
The transmasc and transfem flags are the same as their originals.
Transnonbine was made by me. I used the yellow and purple stripes from the nonbinary flag.
──────────✦──────────
transandrogynous ★ transgenderless ★ transneutral/transneu
Transandrogynous is just a slight colour edit of the original. (I changed the bottom stripe to grey and adjusted the purples.)
Transgenderless is the same as the original.
For transneutral I chose green, as that's a common colour for neutrality. So it's like this variant of transneu.
──────────✦──────────
transmaverine/transmav ★ transxenine/transxen ★ transbine/transbinarine
(Note: bine/binarine is binary gender quality. Binarine comes from here, but I came up with bine follow the same naming convention as nbine.)
Transmav is pretty much the same as the original, though I changed the yellow and orange to be slightly darker, for more contrast.
Transxenine is quite different from the original. Instead of copper colours, I used a light purple blue colour scheme, just because I felt those colours were fitting.
Transbine uses the colours from this binarine flag.
(I chose the lighter colours so it wouldn't look too similar to the transmascfem flag.)
──────────✦──────────
transmidbine/transmidbinarine ★ transabine/transabinarine ★ transatrine/transatrinarine
(Note: midbine/midbinarine is midbinary gender quality, abine/abinarine is abinary gender quality, and atrine/atrinarine is atrinary gender quality. I came up with midbine/abine/atrine following the naming format of nbine, and derived atrinarine from midbinarine and abinarine (which weren't made by me).)
Transmidbine, transabine, and transatrine all use the colours from my alt midbinary/abinary/atrinary flags.
Besides this transabinarine flag, which uses a different format, I don't think flags for these exist, so they're pretty much new designs.
──────────✦──────────
transaporine ★ transoutherine
Transaporine is fairly different from its original. Instead of using bright red orange, I used the colours from this aporine flag.
Transoutherine is also kind of different from its original, mainly it's the colour configuration. I used this outherine flag as reference.
──────────✦──────────
From here on are combos of the above flags/terms :D
transnbinemasc ★ transandrogynousmasc ★ transgenderlessmasc
(Note: transandrogynousmasc is also called transandromasc. The wiki page lists transandromasc as both transandrogynous and transmasculine, so I assume andro is supposed to be a shortening of androgynous. However shortening it like that just means masculine, so I use androgynous instead so it's clearer.)
Transnbinemasc is a mix of the blues, yellow, and purple from the transmasc and transnbine flags.
Transandrogynousmasc is bluish purple, as a combo of the blues of transmasc and purples of transandrogynous. Same idea as the original, though I used slightly different colours.
Transgenderlessmasc is just greyish blue, as a combo of the grey from transgenderless and blue from transmasc.
(I don't think transnbinemasc and transgenderlessmasc have been made before, so those are new flags.)
──────────✦──────────
transneumasc ★ transmavmasc ★ transxenmasc
Transneumasc is just a edit of the original flag.
(The colours are slightly lighter.)
Transmavmasc uses orange yellow from the transmav flag, and a adjusted blue from the transmasc flag.
Transxenmasc uses the purple from transxen, and the light blue from transmasc.
(I haven't found transmavmasc and transxenmasc before, so these are new flags too.)
──────────✦──────────
transnbinefem ★ transandrogynousfem ★ transgenderlessfem
(Note: same as the one about transandromasc, this one is also called transandrofem.)
For transnbinefem is a mix of the pinks, yellow, and purple from the transfem and transnbine flags.
Transandrogynousfem is a lot like the original, I just used slightly different colours.
Transgenderlessfem just uses a greyish pink, as a combo of the greys of transgenderless and pinks of transfem.
(Transnbinefem and transgenderlessfem are also new flags, as far as I'm aware, I wouldn't be surprised if similar flags have been made before, though perhaps just not in this format.)
──────────✦──────────
transneufem ★ transmavfem ★ transxenfem
Transneufem is based off of my transneumasc flag, I chose a light peachy colour for it. The original is pretty different, it uses a bright red instead.
Transmavfem uses the same orange yellow from transmav, and the dark pink from transfem (which I adjusted the hue of, so it would match better with the orange).
Transxenfem uses the same light purple from transxen, and the light pink from transfem.
(Last note about this, but I transmavfem and transxenfem should be new too.)
──────────✦──────────
transmascfem/transfemasc
Transmascfem flags have been made before, but not in this 4 stripe format (that I know of). I chose the dark pink from transfem, and the light blue from transmasc.
──────────✦──────────
There's also transoutherinemasc and transoutherinefem flags in the same 4 stripe style.
I didn't make any though, since I couldn't figure out how to make it look. It's the same reason why I skipped out on making combos with transbine, transmidbine, transabine, transatrine, and transaporine, I just couldn't figure out a good design.
──────────✦──────────
I'll also note about the names, there's a lot of possible names for these terms, I didn't list all of them because there's a lot.
So feel free to use these flags for alt terms, or come up with your own terms (as long as they mean the same thing).
✦
Haha I typed a lot, I guess it's a kind of a masterpost / compilation post with all these links, I think it's nice to have everything together in a matching set like this anyways.

Theyfab Flag!
Image ID: A 7 striped flag. Colors, in descending order, are: pink; salmon; light gold; white; light purple; violet; pink. End ID.
Theyfab is a slur/insult thrown at AFAB nonbinary people, especially feminine-presenting AFAB people. I am reclaiming it. This flag is for other people who reclaim it. The reclaimed theyfab stands for celebrating femininity when freed from girlhood, being connected to your AGAB, body, femininity, and/or she/her pronouns without that invalidating your identity, separating gender from presentation, transmasculinity and transneutrality, detaching oneself from girlhood, and acknowledging the transmisandry and the misogyny that AFAB trans people face. Not all theyfabs will relate to all of these, they're just possible experiences that might effect why someone would identify with theyfab as a term. It stands against reducing trans people to their AGABs, destroying the norms that trans people must be traditionally masculine, feminine, or androgynous to be valid, supports pronoun nonconformity and gender nonconformity especially when done by trans people.
Anyone who is AFAB and nonbinary and/or transmasc and/or uses they/them pronouns and/or neos can reclaim this term. Additionally, anyone who's been derogatorily called "theyfab" can use it, regardless of actual AGAB, identity, or pronouns. It's my belief that slurs can be reclaimed by the people they hurt and the people like the ones they hurt.
If you cannot reclaim theyfab, but you support what this reclamation stands for, support people who reclaim it, and wholeheartedly support transmascs, transneutrals, and AFAB trans people, you can use this tf ally flag!
Image ID: A diluted version of the theyfab flag with an ally symbol in the colors of the theyfab flag, not diluted
Why I reclaim theyfab:
I have not personally been called a theyfab, but I feel I am the person they'd want to mock the most. Of course, I hit the basics:
• AFAB
• Nonbinary
• They/them
But also, I am:
• Bigender, with my primary gender being hypergirl
• Feminine presenting
• Cisgender, fully identifying as cisgender, and sometimes cistrans but usually just cisgender
• Don't want to transition
• She/her
If I wasn't above working for transphobes I could have been their theyfab mascot. I want to reclaim theyfab because despite being feminine presenting, despite still using she/her pronouns and still describing myself as cisgender, and despite being a girl, I am aporagender. I am nonbinary. I am all of these things and me being a girl, a girly girl, doesn't invalidate my gender and just because I prefer she/her pronouns doesn't mean I don't wanna be called they/them quite a bit. I am not any less valid for how I present or for the rest of my identity than any other nonbinary people, even those who fully medically transition.
