Same-gender loving (SGL): A term coined by Dr. Cleo Manago to describe African-Americans with same-gender attractions. 

Same-gender loving has been used to redefine the terms gay, lesbian, and bisexual. In doing this, Manago challenges the assumed link between sexual minority identities and the stereotypes that accompany them.

– Courtland Douglas

The brown stripes represent the Black/African-American community. The spectrum of red through blue represents the spectrum of femininity and masculinity in SGL people, with the purple, white, and yellow representing neutral and GNC presentation.
