The internet is an ever-changing space with new trends and terms popping out by the actual mili-second. Someone will use a term once and everyone will just run with it… including us. 'Cheugy' ring a bell? What about 'manspreading'? Or our personal favorite 'gaslighting'. Welp, today we're bringing you the latest dating slang term - beige flags. 

Not to get confused with red or green flags, beige is like the middle child that's not necessarily good or bad but does make you wonder for a second when you come across it. But emphasis on a second because you just accept it and live with it. Welp, we recently stumbled upon the first-ever beige flags thread on Reddit and obviously, we had to share it with you guys. 

Some of these are very much correlated with dating while others are just correlated with the perks of being a woman. We related to almost all of these, hbu?

    Font - skyebangles 2 hr. ago The beige flag is I have a fairly functional IMDB in my brain. I can relate actors to shows, movies, directors, etc. Even for stuff I haven't seen.. my brain just absorbs this trivial data. The red flag of course is I will pause a movie or show constantly to look up information and add to my brain box if it's eating at me. Thankfully my spouse does the same. Idk how the hell we found each other. We don't do it while watching with others...

    Font - Bubbabee2013. 4 hr. ago I read a lot, and sometimes I get so engulfed in the book that I literally don't know what's going on around me. There could be an all out gang war happening, the house could be on fire, someone could be screaming for me. And I won't know any of that is happening unless I take a bullet to the arm, the flames actually start to burn me, or someone closes the damn book/ waves their hands in my face.

Discussions about politics/religion (I do care, but it's just pointless, so I don't engage, lol)? But cats. I love cats. Just spent an hour yesterday feeding stray cats and talking to them.

    Font - Ok-Bridge-1045 · 2 hr. ago 8 I carry a handbag which has a ton of stuff. I carry it everywhere. Medicines, earphones, sunglasses, a needle and thread, pins, safety pins, extra earrings, a tiny nail cutter, napkins, perfume, lipsticks, kohl, sanitizer and I don't even know what else. In many situations my bag has come in very handy. Everyone's always saying "why do you need to take your bag, we're just going nearby." Idk, but i feel incomplete without it if i go outside.

    Font - miss_Saraswati 4 hr. ago In the summer time, I'm almost always in my five finger barefoot shoes. They look kind of funny, but are suuuper comfy, feels like going barefoot. I wear them to all outfits. Today to a silver tight pencil skirt and a white silk blouse. And a pair of light pink, netted five finger shoes!

    Font - SleepyxDormouse · 3 hr. ago NB I have a short tongue and have trouble pronouncing some words. "Ask" / "Asked" is super hard for me because of the "s" right next to a hard "k." It usually comes out "a 's" or "ast." There are a few others, but that's the one that vexes me the most.
