Black Triangle, lesbian symbol of pride. Created by Fibonacci.

The Black Triangle was used to identify "socially unacceptable" women, according to the Nazis. Lesbians were included in this classification. Now, Lesbians have reclaimed the Black Triangle as their symbol in defiance of repression and discrimination as Gay men have reclaimed the Pink Triangle.

Triángulo negro, símbolo del lesbianismo. Creado por Fibonacci.

El Triángulo Negro fue utilizado para identificar mujeres "socialmente inaceptable", según los nazis. Las lesbianas fueron incluidas en esta clasificación. Ahora, las lesbianas han reclamado el triángulo negro como su símbolo contra la represión y la discriminación así como los hombres homosexuales han reclamado el triángulo rosa.

ブラック・トライアングル。レズビアンのシンボル。Fibonacci作成。

ブラック・トライアングルは、ナチス・ドイツでレズビアンなど「社会的に受け入れられない女」に付けられたシンボルであった。今レズビアンはブラック・トライアングルを抑圧と差別に対する反抗のシンボルとして掲げている。ゲイには同様のピンク・トライアングルがある。
