The very nature of flags is to symbolize a country or concept, so everything on them is significant in some way. For example, the stars on the U.S. flag represent the 50 states, the stripes represent the original 13 colonies, and the colors represent characteristics that the U.S. finds morally important, according to PBS.
Of course, the colors on the trans flag are significant as well, according to Monica Helms. "The stripes at the top and bottom are light blue, the traditional color for baby boys," she explained in an article in Point 5CC. "The stripes next to them are pink, the traditional color for baby girls. The stripe in the middle is white, for those who are intersex, transitioning or consider themselves having a neutral or undefined gender." So that's what the colors represent!
Additionally, the flag's design is strategic, in that the flag is the same upside-down as it is right-side up. "The pattern is such that no matter which way you fly it, it is always correct, signifying us finding correctness in our lives," she continued. That's some super poignant symbolism.
