Uh, oh. Are we about to be blamed for co-opting the rainbow? Gee, I didn't realize we have that kind of power, to take the rainbow from the sky.
This is going to be bad news for the fans of Joseph and the Technicolor Dream Coat.
Um, are the Muppet's gay for singing the song "Rainbow Connection?"
Is it gay to like "Over The Rainbow?" Maybe that's why Judy drank herself to death, do you think?
I'm gay and I love the song. I even sing it sometimes. Oh, it's so not looking good for all you Wizard of Oz fans.
Oh, my. Is Tom Waits gay too? I just remembered, he recorded "Over the Rainbow."
Someone should call up Jesse Jackson and tell him about his gay Rainbow Coalition.
Gosh, here's irony for you -- I have an album with a lesbian folksinger (Ronnie Gilbert) performing "Oh Mary Don't You Weep" and you know what? The song has the line, "God gave Noah the rainbow sign...!"
Well, I'm sorry. We do seem to be taking over everything. The arts, fashion, cuisine, music, dance, stage, movies, oh, my! Now rainbows too?!
Wow, this is going to be the biggest outing in history. I better go now and start making my new rainbow outfit for the grand ball.
LOL, LOL, LOL. You're so silly.

Wearing a rainbow is like displaying a rainbow on your car. If showing your true colors means that you are gay, then a display of a rainbow anywhere is advertising homosexuality. This is a personal question, but only has a private answer. For me, I love rainbows as a symbol of a bright future, and Christians view rainbows in terms of Noah and the Covanant of the Rainbow.
If you were to see a rainbow in the clouds, I'll bet your first thought is "God must be gay". Think twice.

The rainbow is often used as a gay symbol, but putting on the bracelt won't change someone from straight to gay.
As another user said, it might be a sign of support, or it might even be just because he or she liked the bracelet or received it as a gift.
There are also other groups and organizations that support diversity that use the rainbow as a symbol.

No, it means you're wearing a rainbow bracelet.
You might wear it so that people who know about the rainbow emblem ask "are you gay?" or, so that they know you support the GLBTQ campaign for equal rights. Then again you might wear it because you like the colours of the rainbow.
Many folk don't even know that the rainbow is associated with GLBTQ culture - so they'll just think "Oh, what a pretty bracelet"
If you have one and you like it, wear it. Or don't.

Rainbows, rainbows, rainbows, I love seeing them! I don't care if it's on clothing, bedding, any household item, jewelry including bracelets, even earrings, Personally, I don't care what people think. When I was younger (gay) meant being delighted, happy, spirited, whimsical. What in tarnation happened? When it rains and after the storm, I look to the heavens in search of a rainbow or even two, and know in my heart, everything is going to be Okay which calms my inner beast (or nerves) Rainbows are my gift from God.

I would say a "probably", but DEFINITELY not necessarily. There are some naive girls (and presumably guys, though I haven't met any) who just like rainbows. There's also supporters / straight allies who will wear rainbow stuff, as well as a very small movement of christians trying to "take back the rainbow", but in every case except the latter, the person wearing it should anyways not be offended to be presumed either gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender.

No, having sexual relations with a person of the same sex means your gay. Wearing a bracelet doesn't mean you are gay. It could be a gay pride bracelet - but the wearer might just be supportive of gays - have a gay friend or family memeber.

No, performing homosexual acts means you are gay. A rainbow bracelet could just mean that you agree with equal rights for eveyone, including gay individuals. While I am not gay, I had a brother who was, and died from AIDS. I believe in thier right to equality.
