But much as “LGBT” has become “LGBTQ” and “LGBTQIA” and “LGBTQIA+” and so forth, so too have the flag added and removed stripes. And… a lot of that is intentional animosity since a shocking number of LGBTQIA+ folk are actually REALLY bigoted (the old “jokes” about how bisexual people need to “choose a side” and so forth) and it becomes a whole thing.
Yeah tbh. And it aligns better with the concept of sexuality/gender being more of a spectrum than rigidly designated buckets.
Isn’t the rainbow meant to represent the spectrum. Like how rainbows show the visible spectrum of light?
It would be a lot prettier that way
Are you trying to get the entire dcip3 banned??
I thought of this because of your comment.
God’s rainbow has 7 colors (ROY G BIV), the LGBT rainbow has 6. Guy doesn’t even know rainbows.
Sure it has every color but does it have our specific color?
Yeah, this flag only shows saturated hues. This is unsaturated erasure.
Might I tempt you with this alternative proposal?
I complain about saturation representation and you reply with a hue-lightness flag. Smh my head.
It… is kind of a giant mess.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_flag_(LGBTQ) is a good summary but the modern rainbow color scheme is a somewhat recent iteration.
