Why is a rainbow the gay symbol?

the flag was made up in 1978 by Gilbert Baker, no one really knows why, some say it has to do with "Over the Rainbow" from Wizard of Oz, each color stands for something:

hot pink: sexuality

red: life

orange: healing

yellow: sunlight

green: nature

turquoise: magic/art

indigo/blue: serenity/harmony

violet: spirit

after 1978 pink was dropped because Baker couldn't get enough pink fabric, and turquoise was dropped in 1979 leaving the flag as we see it today, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet

I've always assumed it had to do with tolerance -- rainbows have ALL the colors. No one of those colors is bad, or should be discarded.

RAINBOWS are HAPPY

GAY='s HAPPY

Lol

Would be far easier to use Google and probably far more accurate.

bcuz we love skittles

exactly what the king said.

ikr? i guess its because the gays are kind of "fruity" and feminine and walk like they have a penis in there ***
