@Manish that’s not the flag Debbie was asking for though? That’s the “lipstick lesbian” flag colours, Debbie is asking for the original 7-bar version of the flag on this page, this one: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f8/Lesbian_pride_flag_2018.svg

There are 5 colors in this flag. These are Sinopia (#D62900), Atomic Tangerine (#FF9B55), White (#FFFFFF), Super Pink (#D461A6) and Flirt (#A50062).

Using appropriate terms can help medical providers discuss transgender care with their patients, as well as diagnose and treat transgender patients with more accuracy. This applies whether the patient is seeking gender-affirming treatment or routine ongoing medical care.

Olezeski and other Yale Medicine experts who care for transgender patients weighed in on a short guide to understanding terms related to the transgender experience, especially if you are a doctor or a transgender patient.

Every person’s gender journey is unique. Some people make the transition with medical or surgical treatments, while others make the transition socially, changing the external expression of gender (hairstyle, clothing, etc.).

Once you know, make sure to use their pronouns even when you are referring to an event that took place before they decided to make a transition. If you can’t get confirmation, use “they” as a singular pronoun when describing a transgender person. The bottom line is to avoid making assumptions about a person’s gender or pronouns.

Note: This glossary is not designed to be a complete list. Some terms may not be included due to space constraints. Information provided in Yale Medicine articles is for general informational purposes only. No content in the articles should ever be used as a substitute for medical advice from your doctor or other qualified clinician. Always seek the individual advice of your health care provider with any questions you have regarding a medical condition.

In addition, as experts learn more about the nuances of transgender issues, new terms have emerged to replace old ones that have come to be considered derogatory, disrespectful, or otherwise inappropriate. It may be best to simply ask people what terms they choose to use.

A person’s gender identity reflects their deeply felt, internal sense of self as far as their gender, whether or not it aligns with the one assigned to them at birth. It applies to all people, transgender or not.

[Correction: An earlier version incorrectly listed "transsexual" in the "transgender terms to avoid" section. The term is now located in the "other words to know when talking to a doctor about transgender care" section.]

There are other words that confuse the issue, including words in the LGBTQIA+ world that denote sexual attraction, and that some people mistakenly confuse with gender terms. These include gay, lesbian, bisexual, and pansexual (meaning attracted to people of all gender identities and biological sexes)—and they apply to transgender people in the same way they apply to cisgender people. In other words, a cisgender man who is attracted to other men is gay, and so is a transgender man who is attracted to other men.

No one is expected to get this right at first, but you could make a huge difference to a transgender person by being knowledgeable and sensitive about language, says Christy Olezeski, PhD, director and co-founder of the Yale Pediatric Gender Program, which cares for transgender and nonbinary people up to the age of 25.

An entire vocabulary has evolved around people who are transgender, and if you’re not familiar with the latest terms, you can easily hurt someone’s feelings, even if that’s not your intention. Figuring out a person’s terms can be challenging—the lexicon includes words with meanings that have changed over time and could change again. And because each transgender person is navigating their own path, the best words to use in a conversation with them could vary depending on their circumstances.

The new Lesbian flag (2018) has five equal-sized horizontal stripes of (from top) orange, light orange, white, pink and dark pink with hexadecimal codes #D62900, #FF9B55, #FFFFFF, #D461A6 and #A50062. The corresponding RGB and CMYK values are in the table. The closest Pantone® values 2349 C, 804 C, SAFE (white), 674 C and 227 C.The flag was introduced in 2018 and is loosely based on the earlier 2010 striped flag. It is markedly different from the Lesbian Pride flag.

If you are not sure which name or pronouns a transgender person identifies with, you could introduce yourself and provide the pronouns you use to describe yourself. Then ask: “What is your name? Or what pronouns do you use?”

The seven stripe orange lesbian flag is also widely in use, and flag manufacturers have begun making it. Is it possible to get the colors for that version as well?
