Welcome to Find Your Flag!

Whether you're starting your journey of questioning your identities, or someone who wishes to understand our terms and flags more, Find your Flag is here for you with some of the most common identities, flags, and maybe a bit of history!

DISCLAIMER: This site only highlights the most popular of flags and terms within the community at time this site was last updated, Jan 2023. This website also aims to be brief in its overviews of identities and flags. If you want exhaustive lists of lesser known identities and more details, I suggest browsing the LGBTA+ Wiki and the Nonbinary Wiki, as well as conducting your own research in general.

Below are some terms that aren't identities but are important terms to know in the community!
