Spent the day with my Dad. And my new bag.

  1. what an interesting choice
  2. he didn’t know I was an ‘activist’
  3. aren’t I worried about being propositioned by a lady

AIBU to tell him that if he’s so interested in ladies’ handbags he should buy one of his own???

Want want want!
I'm not gay or an activist or a hippy. I just like rainbows. Where did you get it?

shiny I know people like that! One friend Hmm commented on my toy story vans and backpack last week. Saying “just because you work with children doesn’t mean you need to dress like one”

If only she could see my unicorn bedding...

I just see rainbows as having a hippy vibe. Wouldnt occur to me that any kind of sexual preference was denoted.

@IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece I work with similar people! I have two mugs one stitch one and one aristocats one equally I have two ice cream looking cups with Stitch and Aristocats. I wore Stitch shoes and a hanging with my gnomes t shirt and was told my life is a mess 😂😂 some people are just boring.

I want a rainbow strap for my watch and my mother has said I shouldn't because people will think I'm gay. I should be so lucky to be that interesting Grin

The only reason I don't have a rainbow strap is finances, not parental disapproval.

I have. Rainbow strap on my change bag (little bird). I like your new bag too

I like the bag, rainbows do make think of pride and LGBT but I wouldn't think a person was gay etc if they wore your bag or anything with rainbows. I like rainbows too and I'm straight.

Rainbows are awesome. You can totally rock that bag. I have shoes with pineapples on them.

Hahahah I didn't even notice the rainbow associations I just thought "wow what a nice bag I want one"!!!!!

I bought a rainbow cardigan in New Look a little white ago and wore it to work. One of my colleagues told me I shouldn’t be wearing it because of the LGBT associations.

I love it though
