General paraphilia flags
Paraphilia is a general term for a non-normative attraction. During the course of existence of online para spaces, several people created flags that represent paraphilias as a whole.
2019 flag
This flag was made in August 2019 by Lecter. Five parts of the flag, in no particular order, symbolize five domains of atypical attractions: atypical beings, atypical body parts, atypical actions, objects and oneself. The meaning of the colors are, as it follows: purple - mystery, teal - clarity in communication, black - sophistication. The letters π and φ are Greek "p" and "ph" respectively, representing "para" and "philia".
2020 flag
This flag was made by Star on 2020 Twitter. No particular meaning was assigned to the stripes.
2021 flag
This flag was made on 2021 Twitter by Sickbagpony. Sickbagpony was a member of the pro recovery movement, and this flag is sometimes referred to as a "pro recovery paraphile" flag or a "healthy paraphile" flag. It is unclear whether the flag was intended exclusively for this movement or as a general paraphilia flag, but it has been used as the latter.

Meanings (quote from the coining post):
Black for protection, red for "deviant" desires, orange for inner radiance and/or self expression. Triangle pointing down because we’re going to hell. This is a reclamation based flag, to convey pride, expression, and spite.
Meanings (quote from the coining post):
The dark blue for mental fortitude and strength, the purple is for self expression, light blue is hope. The triangle is a mountain to be climbed. This flag is based more on a positive and persistent mental strength to overcome.
