🏴 Mothman Pride Flag! ✍️ Design Notes: Cryptids are weird & in weird spaces, non-normative orientations and identities feel less stigmatized. This can lead to a cycle where there start to be more and more queer and trans people in a space, further claiming it for those communities. And while there will be bigots in every cultural space, circles with “oddball” reputations tend to feel more accepting. The idea of homophobia and transphobia existing in cryptid spaces is absurd because those spaces are explicitly built on the premise of accepting things that “normal” society won’t. A repossession and hijacking of the narrative that the LGBTQIA+ community is malicious or just a cute woodland friend showing pride? You decide.
