I wear a lot of black as a middle aged punk, so my rainbows are lots of smiling, "hey y'alls!" and good nature towards folks. Oh, and actually being there when needed. Gotta walk the walk

Same. As a straight man, I wear the colors to support my friends in the community and to let all those struggling know they are not alone.

I also (now) wear them so that I live rent-free in the heads of bigots who are absolutely malding at the sheer gall of me to exist.

I wear and show 🌈 for 3 reasons. 1) Rainbows are dope. 2) It p***** off everyone I dislike in one convenient motion. 3) It makes me new friends with the people I'd rather spend time with. I'm straight as an arrow but I love good people no matter who they are.

We never had a Pride flag on our house until my husband overheard our neighbor's oldest kid just so upset and crying because they're non-binary and they think the entire world hates them. Husband went out that day and bought us the biggest Pride flag he could find and a sign that says "We ♥️ Our LGBTQ+ neighbors!" The LEAST we could do to help that child feel more accepted. It's what allyship is all about.

I support pride by going out drinking whenever the festivals**** my neighborhood. I dont have any flags or anything.

As someone who is not feeling super safe these days. A flag or a sticker like this makes me feel a whole lot more comfortable in places where it is displayed.

I have a deep aversion to wearing pins or other signifiers that identify me as part of a tribe, but I still wear my pride pin on my jacket at all times because there’s a difference between tribes that divide and the tribe of humanity.

I wear rainbow checkered Vans not because I'm LGBTQ+ but for all my friends who are.

I have never thought about it that way, but will now start to think about how to integrate it into my life, first maybe on my business website and a car sticker, i hate flashy clothes 😂
