The first Pride flag was created by Gilbert Baker in 1978. Gilbert had been asked by Harvey Milk, an LGBTQIA+ rights activist and politician, to create a flag for the LGBTQIA+ community.

Gilbert created a rainbow flag with eight colors. The colors of the flag have the following meanings: pink = sex red = life orange = healing yellow = sun green = nature turquoise = magic blue = serenity violet = spirit The Agender Pride flag was created by Salem X in 2014. Someone who is agender does not have a gender. The black and white stripes represent an absence of gender. The gray represents being in between having a gender and not having a gender. The central green stripe is for non-binary genders.

Me and My Dysphoria Monster

An Empowering Story to Help Children Cope with Gender Dysphoria Laura Kate Dale

Illustrated by Hui Qing Ang

Nisha’s monster follows her everywhere. It used to be small, but recently her monster has begun to grow. And as her monster gets bigger and bigger, Nisha feels more and more unlike herself.

When people refer to her as a boy, or when she tries to hide her true gender identity, Nisha’s dysphoria monster grows larger and larger. Until, one day, Nisha meets Jack – a trans man – who shows Nisha how she can shrink her dysphoria monster back down to size.

This touching story is the perfect book for discussing gender dysphoria with children, explaining what it is and how they and their families can deal with it. It also includes an accompanying guide for parents with further information about gender dysphoria, terminology, and first-hand examples of the author’s own experiences.

“This adorable story perfectly illustrates what it’s like to be a trans child Even my dysphoria monster approves!”

– Fox Fisher, author of the Trans Survival Workbook

And my monster grows and grows and grows…

I don’t like being called a boy. Something just doesn’t feel right.

And I really don’t like my monster.

Until my monster is so huge it starts getting in my way. When I go to the beach with my mum, my monster doesn’t let me swim.

I wish my monster would just go away! When my friends invite me to play, my monster doesn’t let me join.
