I was in a random drug store today when I saw this poster http://a1259.g.akamai.net/f/1259/5586/1d/images.art.com/images/PRODUCTS/large/10109000/10109798.jpgand went "HOMG... MUST HAVE!!" So I picked it up and another one which was small and had all these quotes about love and gave them to my mom. Of course my mom didn't know what the poster was but she would find out when I put it up in my room. Now what would get me in more trouble? She probably wouldn't let me keep it up. So I put it back and got another one which was still cute... it was a kitty... but anyways I feel so sick that I went back and censored myself like that. I'm ashamed of myself. I stopped wearing my rainbow wristband in public... and I rarely wear my "Gay? fine by me" or "anything boys can do girls can do better" shirts either. I don't know what's wrong with me.

I know how you feel, I really do.
After what happened the previous weekend, I swore to myself that i'd never wear my beloved rainbow earrings again.
And the other day, when I was at Hot Topic, I saw that sticker-thing that says, "I don't even think straight." Or, something like that on it. And I really really wanted to get it. But, I stopped myself, 'cause I realized I wouldn't be able to put it anywhere. And, I had a few posters of women in my room, and I took all of them down, along with anything gay-related (Even anything that could seem kind of lesbian-ish).
There's nothing wrong with me, or you.
But, I can't help it, I still just feel like it actually is like, y'know, something I have to hide. D:
So yeah, You're not alone, I feel your pain. D=

Yeh, I can understand why you would self-censor yourself. So there really isn't anything wrong with you. With so many people who are just making too much of a deal out of this, it's really not anything to be ashamed of. You're only trying to avoid confrontation.
I never really cared about the rainbow stuff too much. I would wonder if people knew what it meant, like my parents or people in my school but no one ever seemed to notice. Of course, I'd avoid obvious things like that poster (God I so want that poster myself) but yeah. Totally know where you're coming from.

I do the same thing. I saw this great button in town a few weeks ago that said "Sorry I missed church today I was busy practicing witchcraft and becoming a lesbian" and I super wanted it but then I realized that I wouldn't actually wear it anywhere and would probably just hide it in my sock drawer like my rainbow bracelet so there was really no point in getting it.

Seralunarin I do the same thing.

But I'm proud enough to always wear my necklace. 3nodding It's a silver chain with a rainbow-striped heart on it. My mother detests that necklace, and always tells me to take it off, but I never do. I've not taken it off for about a year now. (it's in surprisingly good shape.. x3 ) But beyond that and a pair of jeans with rainbows on the back pockets, i'm pretty conservative in that sense. Although I would kill to be able to wear a rainbow wrist-band everywhere. crying

I schwear that I commented on this thread, but I guess not.
I kind of wish that I could become more open with my orientation.
I have a few gay pride/support accesories that I wear, but I've told my father & mother that it's because I support my friends & gays/lesbians/bi's/transgenders anyways.
*sighs*

I love that poster. And I know how you feel.
I had this background on my computer with all these hot girls. Mom said: "NO! Too sexual, change it, too sexual, obsession, fixation, you're not bi, bla bla bla!" But now I have all these guys and she's fine. It pisses me off so badly. I really hate the double-standards and hypocracy she dishes me.

Too bad though, it sounded like an awesome pin!

I bought that pin..but only to wear it to a Buffy convention since it applies to a character... and I'm kinda looking into witchcraft myself now... but whatever.

I have a Partido Communista Del Cuba shirt in my closet. It lives there, but I do wear it from time to time. I go more or less for silent things. I have a red dress shirt (made in Vietnam) and a silk gold tie made from chinese silk and USA union labor. Hence the commie colors of Red and Gold... But I could see how somebody might not notice, whereas the rainbow is pretty obvious as well as well known.
I'm fairly comfortable with my communist dress, of course, I think having one's ideology attacked and one's own self would be a lot different.
For info biggrin the shirt his a political poster.. it shows four heads against the back drop of the hammer and sickle flag, and says "Workers, Farmers, Soldiers, and Intellectuals, you are the ranks of the Partido Communista!"
It's all in spanish btw.. Oddly enough if I wear it to a local resteraunt, Mexican it is, they give me free drinks!

But that's awesome you get free drinks xd
