On the other hand, I wanted to depict the ever-changing and evolving concepts of gender and sexuality, especially those that are fluid, and how identities are as vast and different as the drops of water in the ocean.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A number of LGBTQIA+ flags are also represented in the design, which the Dogs will wear this Friday night against Essendon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The inaugural Pride Game was established by the Bulldogs and Carlton in 2018 and has since evolved into a league-wide round dedicated to celebrating diversity and inclusion while supporting the LGBTQIA+ community.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Friday night\u2019s marquee Pride Round match event at Mission Whitten Oval will be a huge celebration of LGBTQIA+ diversity, with Bulldogs v Bombers starting at 7:15pm AEDT.
