“Discreet Pride Flag

Discreet (discrete in ptbr): a slang term ascribing, describing, or prescribing someone who is closeted, confidential, private, shy, secretive, reserved, bashful, modest, simple, prudent, circumspect, or hidden about their identity, experience, life, internal sense of self, or anything else.

‘Discreet’ means that you don’t blab about sensitive information or tell secrets, you do things in a subtle and not noticeable way, or you ask questions in a polite or indirect way. For example, “Sally was always very discreet about her sex life when she talked with her grandmother. She didn’t want the old lady to think she was a slut.” ‘Discrete’ means distinct or separate from others, as in “When the solution dries, we can see discrete particles at the bottom of the glass.””
