Skip to Content SFW CLARE BAYLEY Posted on June 27, 2013 33 comments A field guide to Pride flags It’s almost time for SF Pride, and that means the city is sprouting rainbow flags like flowers in the desert after a rainstorm. By now most people know what the rainbow signifies, but what about those other striped flags you see waving at Pride events? I thought I knew most of their meanings, but I recently came across the most Pride items I’ve ever seen in one place, and they had keychains with flags that I’d never seen before (and my office is a castle that flies Pride flags from the turrets). Here’s a quick overview of all the ones I could find online, plus a more detailed history and analysis for each further down. My sources are cited in-line or listed at the end. The top 3 are the ones most commonly seen at Pride events. Edited on 6/27/15: Updated/added some flags based on reader feedback. Rearranged flag order to loosely group by category. The Gay Pride Rainbow Ah, the rainbow flag. Such a beautiful and bold statement, hard to ignore or mistake for anything else. (also easy to adapt to every kind of merchandise you can imagine) Wikipedia has an extensive article on it, but here are the more interesting bits: The original Gay Pride Flag was first flown in the 1978 San Francisco Pride Parade, and unlike its modern day 6- color version it was a full rainbow – it included hot pink, turquoise, and indigo instead of dark blue. -

Queering Heteronormativity at Home in London
Queering Heteronormativity at Home in London Brent S. Pilkey The Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London (UCL) A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2013 copyright Brent Pilkey, please do not share 1 Signed Declaration I, Brent Pilkey, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed: copyright Brent Pilkey, please do not share 2 Abstract This thesis offers a London-based contemporary study of sexuality at home. I draw from architectural history, feminist and queer theory as well as geographies of sexualities to interrogate the stability of domesticity. Highlighting everyday homemaking practices of more than 40 non-heterosexual households in London, I seek to complicate one overarching regime of power that dominates our cultural value system: heteronormativity – the idea that normative heterosexuality is the default sexuality to which everyone must conform or declare themselves against. The project is a response to three decades of academic research that has looked at the spatialised ways in which sexual identity unfolds in, for the most part, peripheral zones in the ‘Western’ metropolis, spaces beyond the domestic realm. This thesis takes a different architectural approach; one where through interviewing 47 lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) Londoners, as well as eleven domestic tradespeople that work in these homes, agency is given to small- scale domestic interventions and everyday actions. The concept of ‘queering’ is important to the framework, which, in the context of the thesis, is understood as an on-going process that LGBTQ people are engaged in through homemaking and daily living. -

Flag Research Quarterly, May 2017, No. 12
FLAG RESEARCH QUARTERLY REVUE TRIMESTRIELLE DE RECHERCHE EN VEXILLOLOGIE MAY / MAI 2017 No. 12 A research publication of the North American The Intersectionality of Vexillological Association-Une publication de recherche de l‘Association nord-américaine de vexillologie Flags, Religion, and the Gay Pride Movement By Amy Langston Pride Flags: Origins and Evolution Pride flags, symbolizing groups of people united by sexual orientation or gender expression, are ubiquitous. Most Americans today can make an intuitive connec- tion between rainbow colors and the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender rights (LGBT) movement. Pride flags, like all flags, have been a source of contention and inspiration in politics and society. The response of religious groups to the display of the pride flags has been a notable arena for observing the dichotomy of opinion not only about pride flags, but also about alternative sexualities in general. Americans’ love for flags as representations of their identities—whether national, subcultural, religious, or sexual—offers opportunities for the testing of social boundaries when tempers flare and opposites collide. The city of San Francisco, California, is home to one of the largest concentra- tions of gays in the world.1 Gay activism based in San Francisco has been pivotal to the advancement of the wider gay movement. It is no surprise then, that the San Francisco gay scene is also the origin of the rainbow flag. The idea of a gay pride flag originated in connection with the 1978 Gay Freedom Day Parade.
