The intersex community can include various gender identities and sexual orientations, just like all populations. Intersex is an umbrella term for over 40 different variations in sex characteristics that intersex people can be born with. The term “ intersex” refers to people born with sexual anatomy that doesn’t fit the medical and societal definition of “male” or “female”. The traditional flag includes the addition of a large yellow triangle with a purple circle placed in the centre. Now, a new design has surfaced acknowledging and supporting the inclusion of the intersex community. The classic LGBTQ+ flag has faced several revisions including the addition of stripes to represent the LGBTQ+ POC community and trans community in recent years. The Progress Pride LGBTQ+ flag has been updated to be more inclusive and to better represent the intersex community.
