Asset Overview
Although it’s not as well known as some of the other LGBTQ flags on the list, the [Labrys Lesbian Pride Flag](https://www.rd.com/list/lgbtq-flags/) has been around since 1999. A labrys is a double-headed battle-ax seen on the flag, which can be traced back to matriarchal societies like the Minoans. Before making its way onto this flag, the labrys was seen as a symbol of empowerment for cisgender women, and it was adopted by some lesbian radical feminist groups in the 1970s. The purple in the flag represents cisgender women, while the black triangle symbolizes lesbians.
