Yes, but we're not naming our private sensation.
We arent saying "the flag is me feeling a particular way". We're saying "the flag has the relevant feature of making me feel a particular way".
The word "white" refers to a feature of the object. If I say, "is that paper white?" I am not asking if it is a feeling. I'm asking if it will cause one.
