Caption under the flag graphic is incorrect...[edit]

The Leather Pride Flag represents the Leather subculture. While many in that community, BUT NOT ALL, also participate in BDSM and various forms fetish play, the Leather Pride Flag is not representational of those practices. While it's origins are VERY well established in the gay male community, individuals identifying in the myriad of other sexual orientations have embraced and been embraced by the Leather community.

Leather Pride flagLeather flag – In aiming to have a naming convention for all pride flags, as well as in the aim of WP:CONCISE, the "pride" should be removed from the name. See lesbian flag, transgender flag, etc. However, if "pride" is not removed, it should be uncapitalized. ~BappleBusiness[talk] 23:41, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose Unlike the other flags removing 'Pride' would be less clear. Though, i do agree it shouldn't be capitalized—blindlynx 18:42, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose "Leather flag" is misleading and unlike the lesbian and transgender examples which describe people without losing much context, "leather" here describes a community/culture. Additionally, most references to the flag include the word "pride", within this article, and elsewhere regarding its creation and subsequent uses. HalJor (talk) 20:38, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per above but "pride" should not be capitalized in the title, so Move to Leather pride flag. Rreagan007 (talk) 22:00, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Undo the move[edit]

See the previous section, @DarknessGoth777. This article should not have been moved. HalJor (talk) 01:06, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The purpose of the article rename was in the service of vandalistic historical revisionism[edit]

For some reason, User:DarknessGoth777 is fanatically determined to rewrite history, and get Wikipedia to pretend that the "old guard leather" community did not exist. I find that distinctly annoying for a number of reasons, such as that the gay male "leathermen" were rather well-organized at a time when many other aspects of gay and lesbian communities in the U.S. were rather disorganized, and when many other sexualities and identities included on Wikipedia LGBTQ symbols templates and articles were then extremely obscure at best...
