The black stripe represents Asexuality, the grey stripe representing the grey-area between sexual and Asexual, the white stripe represents sexuality and finally the purple stripe representing the Purple Stripe community. The Asexual Pride flag consists of just four horizontal stripes. The Asexual Pride Flag dates back to August 2010 and was created by a member of the Asexuality Visibility and Education Network (AVEN) as part of a contest by numerous Asexual communities to create a flag they could have for them-self. The identity Asexual comes from Asexuality and is used by those who have limited or no sexual feelings or desires. The black & white stripes represent the absence of gender, with the grey representing semi-'genderlessness' and finally the green central stripe represents Non-Binary genders. The flag consists of seven horizontal stripes each with their own meaning. The Agender Pride flag was created by Tumblr user Salem X back in 2014. The majority of people who identify as Agender, also identify as Genderqueer, Non-Binary and/or Transgender. It can be both seen as a statement of not having a gender identity or as a Non-Binary identity. The Agender identity is simply translated as 'without gender'.
