While straight is often used to describe non-[[LGBTA+|LGBT]] people it is possible for straight people to be part of the LGBT community. For example, they might be [[transgender]]. They also might be, [[asexual]] heteroromantic, or [[aromantic]] heterosexual, which also makes them LGBT. The last four flags were made to serve the [[LGBT+|LGBT]] straights. |
