Genderfluid Pride Flag

Name "genderfluid" applies to the persons with a flexible/fluctuating gender identity. Not identifying themselves as strictly male or female, they are considered a subgroup of genderqueer people, still they are considered distinctive enough to have a flag of their own. The genderfluid pride flag has five horizontal stripes. Their colors and meaning, starting from the top, are as follows:
    - pink: represents femininity;
    - white: represents the lack of gender;
    - purple: represents a combination of masculinity and femininity;
    - black: represents all other gender identities distinctive from strict femininity or masculinity;
    - blue: represents masculinity.

No right-side up

Since its introduction, the flag has come into more widespread use. There are also many examples of its hoisting with reversed color order; [1-5] however, those with the original order are still more numerous, [6-14] so it might be concluded that this has become another "no right side up" flag, but with pink at the top still being preferred hoisting. The variation of color shades has also been recorded, pink typically being darker and purple and blue sometimes being lighter than originally seen.
