Overview
A Jewish variation of the asexual flag, described by its creator as carrying "the Star of David and a more vibrant purple stripe." The creator, the Wikimedia Commons account Jewish-sideblog, dated the work 17 June 2024 and published it on 12 March 2025 in a single batch of ten Jewish variations of pride flags (asexual, bisexual, gay, intersex, lesbian, non-binary, pansexual, polyamory, transgender, and a Philadelphia-inclusive rainbow), all released under CC0 1.0. [1][2] The matching pansexual variation, documented separately in this archive, carries a stated date one day after this flag.
Identity & Context
- Represented Identity
- Jewish asexual and ace people
- Subcommunity
- People at the overlap of Jewish and ace communities
- Religious Context
- Jewish. The creator's description says only that the design is "A Jewish variation of the asexual flag", with no denominational framing and no statement about Israel, Israeli nationality or Zionism. [1] Jewish identity can involve religion, culture, ancestry, ethnicity, community and peoplehood in varying combinations.
Asexuality, in ace-led usage, concerns experiencing little or no sexual attraction; it is not celibacy, abstinence, aromanticism, or an absence of relationships or intimacy. [3] The creator publishes nothing further about who the design is for.

As of 15 August 2026 the account's Commons contributions consist of ten Jewish variations of pride flags, all uploaded within the same minute on 12 March 2025 (asexual, bisexual, gay, intersex, lesbian, non-binary, pansexual, polyamory, transgender, and a Philadelphia-inclusive rainbow), among them the Jewish Pansexuality and Jewish Polyamory flags documented separately in this archive.

- Creation Bounds
- Two dates, of different kinds. 17 June 2024 is the value the creator entered in the file page's information template, so it is a statement; it was entered at upload, nine months after the fact. 12 March 2025 at 00:25 UTC is the timestamp MediaWiki wrote when the file arrived, so it is a record. Nothing has been located placing the design in public between them, and no public or physical use has been documented since. [1][2]
Lineage
- Direct predecessors
- Asexual Pride Flag
- Companion flags
- Jewish Pansexuality Pride Flag, Jewish Polyamory Pride Flag
A direct variation of the Asexual Pride Flag: the creator's own description calls it "A Jewish variation of the asexual flag." [1] The parent design is AVEN user standup's, chosen by the ace community through a month-long series of polls in 2010. [4][3] The flags listed as siblings here are the parent flag's other documented variations, related to this one through that shared parent rather than through any statement by this creator. Its series companions are the Jewish variations published in the same batch, related by shared authorship and one publication event rather than by derivation. [2]

This flag has no official digital palette. Color values shown are approximate.
- Interlaced Star of David
- Identifies the design as a Jewish variation, in the creator's own description. No further meaning is stated: the creator gives the symbol no denominational, national or political framing, and claims no communal endorsement. [1]
The black, grey, white and purple arrangement is inherited from the Asexual Pride Flag, whose stripe meanings belong to that flag's entry and were not restated or revised here. The brighter purple is the one alteration besides the star that the creator names, and it is the creator's own characterisation rather than a measurement against any fixed value. [1]
No separate palette or construction sheet was published. These values document the dominant colours in the creator's source JPEG, sampled from solid interior regions away from the compressed band edges; because the source is a JPEG, values at the band boundaries carry compression artifacts and are not used. The creator's phrase for the purple is "more vibrant", which is their description of their own design rather than a measurement against a fixed value: the 2010 process behind the parent flag settled a design, not a single canonical shade.

Measured from the creator's file: four equal horizontal stripes, their boundaries falling at rows 307, 614 and 921 of 1,229. The Star of David is centred horizontally and spans the grey and white stripes, its top point meeting the boundary between black and grey and its bottom point the boundary between white and purple; it is drawn as an outline with an interlacing effect where the two triangles cross, in the same purple as the bottom stripe. [1]
Four equal horizontal stripes, black, grey, white and purple, with an interlaced Star of David outlined across the grey and white stripes in the same purple as the bottom stripe. [1]
