You're active users who have flair for either the blue-striped flag for gay men or the pink-striped flag for lesbians, and there's discussion for it to be removed throughout this entire post. We'd appreciate hearing your thoughts too, if you don't mind, before any decision is made :)

I'm just gonna speak about the pink flag, since I'm using it. I do understand all of your arguments for removing it and wouldn't be bothered if it disappered. My reason for using it might be a little petty, but I remember finding it when I was deep in my TRA-fase, began to use it for myself and ending up being scrutinized by my (now former) friends for using a "trans-exclusionary" flag. I use it here because I can. Using that flag is a little rebelion against those people, even though they'll never see it.
