Forum Slut United States 1,696 Posts | http://truetales.org/writings/breakingnews05.htm#more A proposed flag was unfurled a few days back at the Master/Slave Conference 2005, offered as "representation of the Dominant/submissive or Master/slave Lifestyle." In my opinion, the design is a bit of an eyesore, reminiscent of a visit to the eye doctor, much as I'm usually fond of a red and black color scheme. I also question the need for yet another flag, especially when the I know there's a desire on behalf of some D/S and M/S types to express their uniqueness from the scene-at-large, but do we really need another flag? --

Forum Slut United States 1,429 Posts | I saw the symbolism right off the bat, but frankly the flag doesn't do anything for me. And does the kinky world really need another symbol? Personally I still like the traditional Leather flag, it is similiar enough to show our history and alliance with the Gay Community to show are shared beliefs - that alternative sexulity is not only OK but should be celebrated. It's been around long enough that most people recognize what it stands for, even a few nilla people. I can understand why another subculture within our culture would want a flag/symbol of its own...but instead of pulling apart, we should be rallying under the "strips of blue and black".
There are two kinds of pain in this world. The pain of displine and the pain of regret. Choose wisely. | |

This is my own redesign of the BDSM pride/leather flag. I prefer the red as a line rather than as a heart in the corner. | |

Forum Slut United States 1,696 Posts | Yeah, Misha, I actually mentioned your redesign of the Leather Pride flag elsewhere when this topic came up. Much more attractive than this new flag....pat, pat.
