Aegosexual / Autochorissexual Pride Flag (2014, hunterinabrowncoat)

Identity Pride Flag · 2014

A pride flag for aegosexual / autochorissexual identity, designed by Tumblr user hunterinabrowncoat. The flag's design is documented directly in two primary-adjacent sources: the mogai-library entry on aegosexuality, which credits 'Pride flag credit: hunterinabrowncoat' and gives explicit color meanings, [AEGO-S5] and a pride-color-schemes documentation post that credits hunterinabrowncoat as designer and describes the layout in detail. [AEGO-S2] The flag uses the asexual pride flag's four colors (black, gray, white, purple) in four horizontal stripes, with a downward-pointing triangle overlay; outside the triangle the colors run black, gray, white, purple from top to bottom, and inside the triangle the colors run inverted (purple, white, gray, black). The triangle and its inversion represent the 'inverted aspect' of autochorissexuality. [AEGO-S2][AEGO-S5] The clinical term autochorissexualism was coined separately by Dr. Anthony F. Bogaert in a 2012 paper in Archives of Sexual Behavior, in which Bogaert explicitly classified it as a 'target-oriented paraphilia.' [AEGO-S3] The more pronounceable community term aegosexual was coined later by Tumblr user Sugar-And-Spite in November 2014, partly to escape that paraphilia framing. [AEGO-S1] Both terms remain in use; the mogai-library and pride-color-schemes sources attribute term coinage to Bogaert and treat the rename history as continuous rather than disputed.
