Lol yes that’s what I assume happens or would happen. It’s like putting a target on your back. I assume most shops end up trying to cater to as much of the rainbow as possible to get as many customers as possible. In this way, $$$ is kind of helping erase homosexuality and same-sex oriented pride, activism, and social spaces, but not necessary bisexuality. There is a lot of bisexuality-centered merch. The only homosexuality-centered stuff is the individual pride flag stuff for gay men and for lesbians, nothing joint. That being said, I don’t even know what that would look like. This is basically my stream consciousness, but what I really want is gay/LGB-oriented stuff. These are who I consider my people. These are the people I want to be surrounded by in our own bars when I want to disappear from the straight world.

Before I buy anything remotely gay or lesbian, whether art or whatever from Etsy I check the shop to make sure I don’t see anything homophobic or misogynistic or overly into gender. If they’re just supportive of LGBT generally OK fine. If they make gay people look like a joke, no thanks.
