A third alternate futch flag was created by wiki user Bdarcy on July 26th, 2021. It was a combination of the butch and femme flags by Tumblr user nbgender.<ref>https://nbgender.tumblr.com/post/657731876565450752/these-are-my-finalized-butch-femme-stripe</ref>[[File:Butch Femme (Futch maybe).png|thumb|180x180px|The butch femme symbol.]]The "horizon futch" flag or "all-inclusive" futch flag was created by pridewiki on or before December 23, 2020.<ref>https://kenochoric.tumblr.com/post/638345628171337728/horizon-futch-an-all-inclusive-futch-flag-no</ref> Purple represents the inclusion of all futches, including POC, disabled, fat, [[Gender Non-Conforming|GNC]], and all other futches. Blue represents the butch and femme roots and history. Futch has roots from both, but it is also it’s own whole identity. Green represents support for femmes, butches, other futches, and the wider community. Yellow represents inclusivity and tolerance. Orange represents autonomy and independence. Red represents futch history and culture. Red-pink represents LGBTQ+ history.
A proposed futch symbol is a combination of the butch and femme symbols, which were both created on October 4, 2014 by a group of non-binary Brazilians.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/cari-rez-lobo/art/Gender-Symbols-486052086</ref>
