About the flag:

The aroace flag, also referred to as the sunset aroace flag[[14]], was created by Tumblr user aroaesflags on December 11, 2018. The flag was created "with the experiences of aroaces who don’t split their attraction in mind", which is why the flag does not contain purple for asexual nor green for aromantic. It is meant to represent anyone who is on the asexual spectrum and aromantic spectrum together.[[15]]

The specific meanings of the sunset flag are as follows:

  • Two shades of blue: Represents "the aroace identity as well as the spectrum of aroace identities and experiences". The choice of color here is intended to be between green, for aromantic, and purple, for asexual.[[15]]
  • White: Wholeness. This is meant to represent aroaces who are "aplatonic, nonamorous, or otherwise not seeking a committed partnership", and also "how we are all whole people on our own".[[15]]
  • Yellow: Love and relationships that exist outside of more conventional ideas of romantic and sexual relationships.[[15]]
  • Orange: Community. Similar to the use of blue on this flag, orange is in between purple and green, for asexual and aromantic respectively. This represents "both the unity of ourselves as aroaces as well as our places in both the aro and ace communities".[[15]]
