Interhormonal Flag (intervex + sproutflags)

“New interhormonal flag design

I got a request for a new interhormonal / hormonally intersex flag that is more sensory-friendly than the original design by sproutflags.

Hormonally intersex (or interhormonal) is a term for intersex people whose intersex variation is characterized by what society perceives as a hormone “imbalance” – e.g. hyperandrogenism, hyperestrogenism, hypogonadism.

Sensory-friendly on the left.
Version with original intersex flag colours on the right.

Hex codes I used in the sensory friendly version are:
yellow: #f4db75
purple: #5f2a7e

The icon in the middle of the flag is a representation of the central common structure in sex hormones such as testosterone, estradiol, estrone, estriol, progesterone, etc.

These flags are released as public domain (CC0).”

Interhormonal Flag (from sproutflags):

Meaning: “Interhormonal: Someone who is intersex and anisohormonal and/or feels that being intersex has impacted their identity as anisohormonal in some way and/or that their identity as anisohormonal has impacted their identity as intersex in some way.”

Anisohormonal Flag (from sproutflags):

Meaning: “Anisohormonal: Aniso (unequal/uneven) + hormonal (relating to hormones). An individual who has an imbalance of hormones for any number of reasons. Such individuals may or may not also be intersex.

Two versions of the flag contain a hormone symbol with a pink/blue gradient. Two do not. Two of the flags are 7 band flags and two are 2 triangle, one diagonal band flags. I was unsure which looked better and got the feeling I was going for across better so I included them all.”
