Flags and Symbols
The user aflutteringlaney created the flag around August 12th 2014 on the same post.[2] It was also posted on the blog Pride-Archive on August 13th 2014.[3]
Here’s what the flag colours mean:
Red, Green, Blue & Purple: The spectrum of different neurotypes and gender identities that neurodivergent individuals have
Black: Aromantic and Asexual spectrums
Infinity Symbol: Neurodiversity[2]
The neurogender symbol was created by Tumblr user system-lgbt on July 28th 2018 in a masterpost.[4]
