Now, if you're really a Lesbian, well you must know the meanings of each color of our symbol flag... the rainbow flag we call it... and the LGBT? Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgender..... A head start for newbies...
Growing up in Canada gave me all the insight of the 3rd community. And am glad to be able to share it down south in the Philippines... for some, it is easier for them to say I am Lesbian, but before you say it you must know the truth about being a Lesbian.... not because u like a girl that doesn't mean you are a Les already... ooohh there is so much to experience before you can finally say you are a Les...
Well here are the meanings of our PRIDE.
Colors of the Rainbow Flag:
The original flag had eight stripes from top to bottom: pink (sexuality), red (life), orange (healing), yellow (sunlight), green (nature), turquoise (magic), indigo/blue (serenity), and violet (spirit). Within a year, the flag had shed two of its stripes—pink and violet. According to Gilbert, they "ran out of pink dye." The violet stripe was later taken out to create an even number of stripes on the flag.Since, many variations of the flag have been created. For instance, a black stripe is added to some symbolizing those lost to AIDS. There are also variations to represent bisexual people, bears and others.
