WHAT THE RAINBOW FLAG SIGNIFIES
The rainbow flag, symbol of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered pride. Pride at having not only survived, but thrived in a world which has often been a hostile place. It is pride in being who you are, it is pride in becoming a full and equal citizen, it is pride in standing up for what you believe in.
In addition to being the symbol of pride, the rainbow is a symbol of hope. Tremendous progress has been made in the fight for equal rights. Step by step, lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgendered people are obtaining recognition as equal members of society, in big cities and in towns and villages around the world. Our anti-gay opponents are becoming frustrated because their hate cannot defeat our love. Things are not perfect, but the progress being made is extraordinary...and the rainbow affirms our hopes for an even better future.
Finally, the rainbow is a symbol of diversity. Although myths and stereotypes portray all gays and lesbians as having a single, monolithic “agenda”, the reality is that theirs is an extraordinarily diverse community. Across all races and cultural backgrounds, across all languages, with or without disabilities, across all religions, gay communities continue to flourish.
Sometimes, these communities are divided between gay and lesbian, between “gay” and “queer”, between those in big cities and those in the suburbs and small towns, between “assimilationists” and those who want to live apart from the mainstream. While diversity poses its challenges, it is also enriching. There are as many opinions as there are people. There is no lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgendered “lifestyle”, there are only lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered people. Millions, and each one unique. This is our strength.
Take pride and show your support. This is a 3 inch clip representing the six colors of the Pride flag with a bead in the center representing the World. Love is Love.
