i actually think the bdsm flag is so goddamn ugly

Black, blue, and white stripes with an all red triple yin yang.
Do better as a collective? No, definitely not.
It's not that bad of a flag when compared to others and when taking into account the general rules for designing a flag.
1: Keep it simple.
2: Use meaningful symbolism.
3: Use no more than two or three basic colours.
4: Avoid lettering, seals or coats of arms.
5: Be distinctive or be related.
6: Consider the effect of height and wind.
What about it is ugly, and can you name a flag you consider not ugly?

Ai or chataGPT did you fairly well on this one. You just forgot to copy the rest of it.

*triscoll* correct my spelling.

The triskele, triskelion, or the triple spiral. It's not the symbol on the flag. The meanings of the triskele and the triple yin yang are a fair bit different..... but both have merit as reflections of proper bdsm philosophy.

Sheldon Cooper’s fun with flags will be very interesting.

A black field with a white circle taking up its center inside the circle are three pieces of three strand line forming a triangle with interlocking loops. They stand for the three pillars. Safe, sane, consensual. At the center, the all seeing eye.

Purple has been associated with the scene for decades as with the trisclion celtic style design.

With respect: Enough with the stupid God damn flags for everything. Wave the American flag. The country that gave you the freedom to fuck each other in the ass or whatever you're into in the first place...🇺🇸
Thank you.

International app skippy. Lots of flags out there, not just the Stars and Stripes.

Yea I remembered that after I posted it but it wasn't about those flags of course. It was about all the lifestyle flags and silly shit like that. I have an opinion whether anyone likes it or not. I also prefaced it with respect so... Whatever. Skippy.

i don’t think the triskelion is particularly appropriate for the flag bc of its religious undertones

and the leather pride flag doesn’t apply to a lot of us bc we’re simply not into it

idk there are so many subsets to bdsm that we could have 20 different ones and it we’d still find a weird kink that wasn’t covered

i mean, i’d love a littles flag but don’t see that happening anytime soon

Triskelion, you mean?

No need to correct my spelling thank you. 🙏🏻 we know exactly what is meant.

I think this is a terrible idea. A flag is a banner to unite under, a physical representation of the spirit of a people or ideal. For what purpose? To identify as kinky? To identify as D/s? If you want THAT, then use what the Goreans do - a sigil and some Kanji. If you feel left out because Pride has a flag, say exactly that. But then, don't bother calling yourself a Dominant. Just say you're a dominant-leaning scene switch and looking for an organization to be subordinate to.
