Gender Diversity

My name is Duke and my pronouns are He/Him. I’m a cisgender male gay man.

I created this simple stripe-in-the-round head/neck accessory patterns to show my solidarity with those whose gender identity is marginalized.

I will be donating 80% of sales from this pattern to “My Sistah’s House (MSH)” in Memphis, Tennessee (20% will be used to cover the fees to LoveCrafts, PayPal, Tech Edit, and Adobe Creative Cloud). MSH provides emergency sheltering, advocacy trainings and health services to Trans community in Memphis.

3 color schemes have been incorporated for unique gender identification - Transgender, Genderfluid and Nonbinary. These color schemes are commonly used in LGBTQ+ Pride flags.

Each color symbolizes the following: ◊ Red/Pink: Femininity ◊ Blue/Aqua: Masculinity ◊ White: Neutral/undefined gender ◊ Black: Lack of gender ◊ Yellow: Outside of gender reference
