It's just less common way to say LGBT, but it's heavily associated with lesser known words and microlabels like many of the flags you've included such as Pluralian, Omnisexual, Demigenders, Aroace, Abrosexual, etc. This person is invalidating all of those.

while it was rude of me, you basically summarized my thoughts exactly. Except that aroace is valid, as are trixic and toric. theysbian and gay nb aren't though because it's a contradiction
Don't think I'm not mad at EA, because as a trans man I was pretty upset about certain things they included as well(anything beyond lgbt(including nonbianary, general pride) and aro/ace.) But yeah, I find omni and pan pretty offensive as a bi man, ESPECIALLY omni, whereas I'll let pan slide
However, in the end, I should have simply ignored op and avoided this post. Sorry

I'm still bewildered by the baroque, dazzling array of labels and terms, was trying to read up on how they have evolved over time, trying to understand my own relationship to gender and sexuality, and have discovered that more than one of these terms might apply, so I tend to look for the most general description that fits, because I can't pretend to grasp the subtle differences in the more fine-tuned labels.

As a learner, I'm asking earnestly and without judgement: what to you is offensive about the terms 'omni' and (to a degree) 'pan'? Did you mean the terms offend you in their existence or if used by others to describe themselves, or simply that it offends you if others apply them to you wrongfully? Thanks for clarifying

Sorry if I seem rude, but ever since 1990, "bisexual" has meant different things to everyone. It is most commonly, at least historically, "attraction to all genders," and the bisexual manifesto has even added that there's more than two included in that. To say that there are other labels that mean the same thing, from person to person, is taking our history. It's stealing our recognition, and hurting us for not being "inclusive." If anything, all these made up sexualities and genders are exclusive! At least Omni isn't that popular, but I have trauma with people forcing the Pan label on me, people calling themselves pan and crying oppression when people point out the word's disgusting origin, and bullying and harassing people who call themselves bi.
In summary, the definitions of the labels and forceful applying of them to me offends me, with the latter making my blood boil. This sort of thing already happened to the trans community in 2014, but the bi community keeps spiraling downwards. It's depressing, you know? And to all the bis reading this, have a great bi day of visibility

I think the reason more people don't identify as bisexual is because they believe that it reinforces the gender binary; whether the community at large believes that is irrelevant to those folks. Educating oneself on the history of the bisexual moniker may be helpful, but there will still be those who don't feel that it suits them. In my experience, a bisexual person may be attracted to the two binary genders, a combination of other genders, or all genders. The difference between bisexuality and pansexuality that is often missed is the recognition of gender in attraction. Using soft drinks as a reference, a bisexual person may say "I like Coke, Pepsi, and RC Cola but they all taste different" whereas a pansexual person may say "All cola tastes the same to me." Hope that makes a little bit of sense?

ALSO!! OP, would you please consider making a queer flag? It's a bit lesser known since queer encompasses so many other identities, but it would be nice to see myself represented in these flags!

If you go to the LGBTA wiki you'll be able to find information on a majority of them

It's so wonderful to see more inclusive flags! Is there any chance you'd be willing to add the Juxera, Proxvir, and Vitanti flags at all?

I made this account to post this, so I'm hoping I did this right. The three flag designs SHOULD be attached, provided I did this correctly.

This creator has gone out of their way to create more pride flags. Perhaps instead of people constantly requesting them to add more flags, why not simply learn how to mod the games and add them yourselves?

I've locked this thread to prevent any more requests and any more arguments between people.

Story books are full of fairy tales, of Kings and Queens, and the bluest skies.
