May I make the teeniest, eeensiest, weeeeeeeensiest request?
I’m feeling a bit possessed at the moment. Maybe I’d better find a new platform.

Thou Shalt Not Purchase Rainbow Encrusted Crap, For It Is An Abomination Unto Taste And Defeats Mine Creation of Thee!
oooooo, was that my out-loud voice? 'Scuse!
Mmmm, rainbow crap…
Esprix
Good lord, you people will buy anything with a rainbow on it, won’t ya? 
And I’d hug ya at the damn dopefest, but you know how that goes.
Oh, I love rainbow crap! Bring on the rainbow fly reels and small stationery products, that’s what I say. (And metro stations.)
Gotta go along with Oxymoron on this one. I loves me some Dorothy and all, but the ubiquitous rainbow flag makes gay people look like some wierd cult that worships Lifesavers.
That said, Happy Gay Pride, y’all.
[sub]I wish my boyfriend would go to Pride with me[/sub].
So… um… hi, ladies, how are things? Can I interest you in some herbal tea and Scrabble?
Can I spell it W-O-M-Y-N?
A Happy GLBTIQQSS month to y’all, too!
I must admit, I love rainbow crap. San Francisco is simply drenched in ROYGBP this time of year, and there’s a lot to be said about cruising down the streets in a city where even the straight folks have rainbow flags flying high in June.
Only if you’re prepared to have me make fun of you. Although I’ve seen far worse- the chick who thought up ‘womban’ ought to die in a tragic hummus accident or something.
Oh, and I love rainbow crap too. I have a small rainbow flag sticker, an Inclusive Scouting sticker, and a squiggly rainbow. And that’s just on my laptop.
I have no Gay Paraphernalia[sup]TM[/sup], but I do wear bright and colorful ponytail holders:)
I’m not really gay, said Frank, half in Earnest.
RAINBOW PRIDE!
We could sure all use some happy months, so all the best in feeling proud for being yourself!
BTW, andygirl, can you please explain ‘womban’ - is it a reference to ‘wombs’ (and if so, it’s even worse than I first thought :eek: )
Whee!
Oh, dear, I can’t remember—am I supposed to be proud this month, too? It’s the 3rd already, and that’s two whole days of accidentally not being proud if I was supposed to be . . . Oh, dear, now I’m all in an Edward Everett Horton-esque dither.
I think that’s a “woman” with a bad cold.
"You know what womyn-with-a-y is? Well, there’s this whole lesbian sect that thinks you have to take the “man” out of “woman,” so they spell it w-o-m-y-n. These women have too much time on their hands.
"And then they can’t agree on how it’s spelt! W-o-m-o-n? W-i-m-m-m-i-n? I’m not a lesbian, I’m a thesaurus!
“Here’s my favourite: w-o-m-b-a-n. Woooomban. Don’t you just wanna hit that girl over the head?”
Mal laughs, and starts a book on how long it is till there’s a Pit thread on “Why you shouldn’t laugh at tragic hummus accidents”.
Excuse me for butting in, I’ll just get my big fat heterosexual ass the hell out of this thread…
C’mon, boy!
Sound: Ee-aww!
Whoo!! I know there’s a big rally planned here in Austin pretty soon, and I imagine I’ll be going.
I also am a person who really enjoys their rainbow junk, and this month I don’t have to take anyone’s crap about it. So there!
Huzzah!!

My dear, dear lady - have I mentioned lately how much I am completely and utterly in love with you?
Esprix
Whooo! Happy Non-Hetero Pride Month!
Here’s to all those guys that love guys and gals that love gals!
Love, Kn*ckers

(my Queer Comminity-member friends tell me I’m too straight to be an actual member, but since I listen to the Indigo Girls, have short hair, and wear flannel shirts, I can be an honorary member. Yay!)
P.S.: I don’t mean to Grape anything here, just expressing gay pride colorfully.
Well, Eve, I notice upon quick perusal that July is National Women’s History Month, National Mentoring Month, National Eye Injury Prevention Month, National Fireworks Safety Month (coincidence, being the same month as the previous one and, really, isn’t that really something we can care about all year long?), and National Therapeutic Recreation Month.
I think they’d all be glad to have your celebration run a bit long and carry over into July to make up for a late start this month.
