Moved from article until sourced[edit]

"Another interpretation of the peace symbol, in connection with the "Make Love, Not War" anti-war slogan, is that it represents a heterosexual couple engaged in the act of copulation (citation needed)."

Wow. Because that's what it represented for most hippies. Ask your forefather and foremothers and they will tell you. And they'll all tell you. This article is trash. -- 00:19, 16 October 2012 82.252.206.219

There's a symbol in Rudolf Koch's pre-WW2 Book of Signs for a man and woman "united for procreation" (i.e. having sex) which somewhat resembles a horizontal "peace sign" without enclosing circle. Extremely unlikely to be the peace sign's origin... AnonMoos (talk) 00:34, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Peace flags[edit]

The article at Peace flag mentions several additional flags not mentioned here. I'm inclined to suggest that they be incorporated into this article, but perhaps this article should have a minimal threshold for inclusion or notability that might exclude them.
