As a symbol for the gay community I'm indifferent. As for rainbows themselves, I love them soo much. My love for rainbows has nothing to do with me being gay. I just love rainbows (and Lisa Frank)

I'll be honest, I love rainbows (I dislike the gay stereotype, but I had to admit it), but as a symbol, it is begging for more torture in my community.

I love 'em, not because they're pretty, actually they tend to annoy me but I have a homophobic cousin and every time I'm in the same building as her I like to point out rainbows and say "Hey look! God is celebrating pride day! Looks like the gays aren't goint to hell after all!....*walks away*... b***h"

It's a great symbol if you understand what it represents.
It's nothing to do with the Handkercheif Code. It was specificaly designed byGilbert Baker in the 1970s. And the colours represent:
hot pink: sexuality
red: life
orange: healing
yellow: sunlight
green: nature
turquoise: magic/art
indigo/blue: serenity/harmony
violet: spirit
Purple has also been reclaimed recently by Bisexual and Transgender people as it is the mixture of blue (male) and red/pink (female)

Too colourful. Don't like.
That is, I don't like the appearance of it. As it is just too rainbowy. I actually have a button that I have on my school book bag that has the phrase: I'm gay but I really don't like rainbows.
I do, however, really love double rainbows. What do they mean?

I personally don't care, I mean the nazi leader Hitler liked shastickas, and that became a nazi symbol, so what ever makes a person happy

I completely support what rainbows stand for and that other people like it to show a symbol of their pride and such....
That said, I am just not a rainbow fan.
I love colours. I don't think there is one colour I particularly don't like. But having all those colours together is kind of overwhelming for me. I would probably wear a small rainbow pin or anything of similar size, but that would be the most.

I think it is an excellent symbol, it includes a whole spectrum of people, not just one color per say.
It represents (to me at least) that we are all different shades, but made of the same thing ( for symbolism, that would be light, IRL, Human beings) and that we should accept everyone for who they are, no matter how different they are from us.

The rainbow makes it easier to represent, but may also make you a target. Bisexual flag is sexier anyway.

I, personally, don't care to much for rainbows.
Yet... as a symbol of pride I have multiple colored hair ties making a rainbow attached to my mp4 player.
I actually bought the hair ties 1) cuz I needed some, and 2) because I was going to make a rainbow pattern with them on my wrist when I went out (away from my family, of course), but they ended up being to small for both my hair and wrist and....
...Sorry, it seems that I started rambling a bit.
But all this said, note that I'm very, very manly looking. I can thank Cherokee ancestry for that.

This is a good point, I wear a bracelet with the colors of the Bi-sexual flag on it, only because almost no one knows what it means... Hell, I didn't even know we had a flag until after I came here razz
