How many men do you know that wouldn't even hold a rainbow flag, lest it somehow make gayness contagious as if before they know it they'll be sucking a dick? I've seen dudes refuse to use pink network cables, and others that don't want to but end up carrying it between thumb and tip of index finger... as if trying to make a statement that the colour is unwanted and we shouldn't think less of them as a man for having to touch it.
Some dudes are FRAGILE. Being comfortable enough in themselves to have a rainbow flag at the door, that still says good things impo.

Such stereotyping. Bravo.
