[ID: Three different pride flags, each with three versions. All have five horizontal stripes, with the colors listed in order from top to bottom. The first and last flag in each set is labeled with black text across the center stripe, with a blank version of the flag in between. The black stripes are in these versions extremely dark grey. The first flag is labeled, "Lithrose" and "Akoirose", and is red, orange, yellow, white, and black. The second flag is labeled "Lithsexual" and "Akoisexual" and is orange, pale orange, yellow, black, and ace purple. The third flag is labeled, "Lithromantic" and "akoiromantic", and is red-pink, pale orange, yellow, black, and aro green. End ID.]
Okay another offering for the community at large because I only just realized that the lithromantic / akoiromantic and lithsexual / akoisexual flags are the exact same thing.
I was really worried for a second I'd been calling the flag by the wrong name for years now, but, no...it's just one flag for both of them going by different names.
I don't remember how old the original flag is but I'm gonna just assume it's older than when the split attraction model started becoming more well-known...
anyways. To help clarify:
Lithrose / Akoirose: Where you feel attracted to someone but don't want it to be reciprocated, or you might stop feeling attracted once it is returned.
Lithsexual / Akoisexual: Where you feel sexually attracted to someone but don't want it to be reciprocated, or you might stop feeling attracted once it is returned.
Lithromantic / Akoiromantic: Where you feel romantically attracted to someone but don't want it to be reciprocated, or you might stop feeling attracted once it is returned.

Please feel free to use the new pride flags here for literally anything you would use a pride flag for, no credit needed. Icons, headers, moodboards, redbubble designs, literally whatever you want. As far as I am concerned they're public domain.
(I use extremely dark grey in place of 100% solid black for the pride designs I make so they're visible against black backgrounds, and these were made on the templates I use for those, but you can obviously use 100% black if you want!)
The header versions of these will go in a reblog since they won't all be able to fit on this post.
(As a note, I usually refer to these with the prefix lith- rather than akoi- because that's easier for me to spell properly with my dyslexia, not because I have anything against the prefix akoi-)
