 The creator of the main Gender Non-Conforming flag is unknown, although it has recieved the most attention via DeviantArt user PrideFlags, who uploaded it on March 11, 2017.<ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=20220127033355/https://www.deviantart.com/pride-flags/art/Gender-Nonconforming-668297039}}</ref> The colour meanings are unknown, although it could be interpreted as the various colours representing the diversity of gender presentations. A flag with the same colours but equal-size stripes is a variant.
