I also remember feeling frustrated that rainbows were associated with any sexuality - I just wanted to wear my Contempo Casuals special in peace.
In the end, it would turn out that I am bisexual, but at the time, I hadn't even begun to consider my sexuality and I just really loved that shirt. I had no idea they were associated with LGBTQ+ communities until the day I was wearing my favorite rainbow baby tee (RIP) and some girl waltzed up to me and announced, ' Rainbows are gay!' When I was in seventh grade, I was obsessed with rainbows.
