The Pride-Flags-For-Us coining post also included its first flag. The multiple shades of green represent the various orientations and experiences in the Aromantic Spectrum. White represents the Aro people who may experience some level of romantic attraction. Grey represents Greyromantics and those with similar experiences to them. Black represents a lack of attraction.
On April 9, 2021, Wikia user Unfunny person420 uploaded their own version of the Myrromantic flag directly to the LGBTA Wiki[3]. It has the same colors as the original but the stripes are rearranged, giving it a more symmetrical appearance.
Another alternate Myrromantic flag was created and uploaded directly to the LGBTA Wiki on May 18, 2021 by Wikia user Fruitindividual,[4] who also credited user PhysicsAndPuns in its creation. This flag has a soft green base color that is a combination of all of the colors of the Aromantic flag to symbolize a combined experience. The symbol in the center also represents the feeling of simultaneous experience; the arrow has three bases to symbolize multiple orientations, and a single head to represent a collective experience.[5]
A simplified Myrromantic flag was uploaded directly on the LGBTA Wiki by user rythmsandcat on June 11, 2021.[6] The flag was based on the original one while removing two of the green stripes, leaving the flag with a total of only five stripes.
