Flags

The flags were coined by Tumblr users snapbacksteben and thehollowkidvg. The flag meanings are as follows: Black represents solidarity and pride with those who hide those relationships from the outside world due to societal pressures. Red represents sexual desire, sexuality, intensity and passion. Blue represents the openness, communication and honesty amongst all partners in poly relationships, flexibility, and freedom. Greek lowercase letter ‘Epsilon with a psili and oxia’, as the first letter of ‘Erotes’ or ‘Eros’. The gold color represents the value that we place on the close connections we make with others. The darker hues in the first flag represents pride, strength, courage, and fortitude of being non-monogamous. The purple hues in the second flag represent tactfulness, diplomacy, consensuality, and professionalism needed when being in a sexual relationship with someone, be it monogamous or non-monogamous.
