Bear gay pride flag

History of the Bear Flag. The gay bear culture celebrates secondary sex characteristics such as growth of body hair and facial hairwhich is typically considered a "bear" trait. Craig Byrnes created the Bear pride flag in Byrnes' undergraduate degree in psychology involved designing a senior project about the bear culture that has exploded since the early s, of which he had first-hand experience.

He thought it might be fitting to design a flag that would best represent the bear community and include it with the results of his research.

To do this, he received help from another influential member of the bear cultural community. Four variations were sewing machine-constructed and Byrnes won approval to display the four 3-byfoot 0. The winning design a version created by Paul Witzkoske is a field of simple horizontal stripes with a paw print in the upper left corner — a layout familiar to anyone who has seen the Leather Pride flag.
