Some she/her lesbians and allies have argued that the term invalidates she/her lesbians (due to the he/him lesbian experience of "disconnection from womanhood"), and romanticizes the past experiences of women forced to use he/him pronouns to avoid persecution. |

The he/him lesbian flag was designed by Tumblr user Wuvsbian on May 20, 2018.<ref>{{Archive|URL=https://wuvsbian.tumblr.com/post/174100520997/hehim-lesbian-flag-made-rainbow-to-encompass|Site=today}}</ref> The rainbow was used to encompass all the different ways he/him lesbians express themselves through sexual and gender identity. The colors were chosen to try to represent butch lesbians, [[femme]] lesbians, those who don't identify as either, as well as [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] lesbians. |

The colors were chosen to try to represent butch lesbians, [[femme]] lesbians, those who don't identify as either, as well as [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] lesbians. However, many he/him lesbians no longer resonate with this flag, as the creator no longer identifies as a lesbian nor uses he/him pronouns, as well as a lack of adequate meaning in regards to the stripes of the flags. |

| ⚫ | A new, more commonly used he/him lesbian flag was created by Twitter user laviatte on December 22, 2021 on a lesbian flag archive account under the name of lesflags.<ref>{{Archive|URL=https://twitter.com/lesflags/status/1473889247253856257?s=20&t=xZkNKupQS1fz3Kaz6vBVrA|Site=today}}</ref> The meanings of the flag represent unique gender expression, disconnection to womanhood, connections to masculinity, he/him lesbians under the transgender and non-binary umbrella, gender non-conformity, comfort in using he/him pronouns, and attraction to non-men. On July 12, 2022, a simplified 5-stripe version of this flag was created.<ref>{{Archive|Site=today|URL=https://twitter.com/laviatte/status/1546981456425000961?s=20&t=xZkNKupQS1fz3Kaz6vBVrA}}</ref> |
