The flags were created by Tumblr user potionflags on July 25, 2020.<ref>[https://theflagarchive.tumblr.com/post/624655680467599360/asexual-spectrum-flag-while-i-like-the-asexual Tumblr post creating the asexual spectrum flag.]</ref> and Instagram user sude.the.acespec on June 16, 2021

For the first flag, the dark blue or black stripe represents the asexual community, its history and solidarity. The purple stripe comes from the asexual flag and represents all asexual identities. The pink stripe represents self-determination, pride in one's identity, and acceptance of one's own and others' asexuality. The cream stripe represents diversity in experiences and types of attractions.

For the second flag, the black stripe represents the spectrum, sexualities that is under the asexual spectrum. The purple stripe also comes from the asexual flag and represents the community, people of different regions, religions, genders, sexual or romantic attractions that is in the asexual spectrum.
