Introduction

Term "non-binary" applies to the spectrum of gender identities that are outside the "gender binary," i.e. are not exclusively masculine or feminine?. This may mean having an indefinite gender, more than one gender or no gender at all, or having a "third gender" different from both male and female (itself not necessarily named), or having a changeable gender identity which fluctuates between male and female identities. Word "genderqueer" is often used as a synonym for "non-binary," but many people prefer the latter, feeling that the former does not describe them well, mostly due to the offensive use of word "queer." [1,2]

Description and origin of the flag

Non-Binary Pride Flag was created in February 2014 by Kye Rowan [1]. It has four horizontal stripes in yellow (top), white, purple, and black (bottom). The colors' meanings are as follows:

yellow: represents the genders existing outside the binary;
white: represents the multigender identities (identification with many or all genders);
purple: represents the gender identities which are the mix of masculinity and femininity;
black: represents the lack of gender.

A list of examples for the flag use follows:

Tokyo Rainbow Pride 2016 [2,3]
Tokyo Rainbow Pride 2017 [4,5,6]
Pittsburgh Pride 2017 [7]
Milano Pride 2017 [8]
Trans Pride Brighton 2018 [9,10]
Brighton & Hove Pride 2018 [11]
Equality March 2019, Kraków [12]
Christopher Street Day Karlsruhe 2019 [13]
Christopher Street Day Berlin 2019 [14]
Dyke March Hamburg 2019 [15]
Brighton Pride 2019 [16]
Katowice Pride 2019 [17,18]

The readers shall bear on mind that this is certainly not a comprehensive list, but a list of the examples which happen to be the easiest to find online.

Recently, the flag was hoisted with reversed color order on several occasions: Berlin, Germany, on 27 July 2019 [1] and New Haven, Connecticut, on 15 September 2019.[2] Still these examples seem to be too few to allow for the flag to be described already as having "no right side up."
