• November 13-19  is Transgender Awareness Week. The most common transgender flag design is the flag with pink, white, and blue stripes. It is a symbol of transgender pride, diversity, and transgender rights. The stripes at the top and bottom are light blue, the traditional masculine colour. The stripes next to them are pink, the traditional feminine colour. The stripe in the middle is white for those who are transitioning or consider themselves to have a neutral or undefined gender.
