Where it comes from

The seven-stripe bigender flag is the one most widely used, and the Human Rights Campaign lists it. Who created it is not reliably documented, and the meanings above are the common community reading rather than a designer's statement.

What the layout suggests

Pink and blue sit at opposite edges, with lavender and white between them. Many people read that as two genders that are distinct but live together in one person.

What bigender means

Bigender means having two genders, either at the same time or in turn. The two do not have to be man and woman.

Other designs

Other bigender flags have been proposed over the years, including a five-stripe design from 2014. None is as widely used.
