My views on the flag...flip-flopped quite a bit. Went from hating it, to loving it, to being neutral.

I like that I can use those colours to subtly show I'm bi without having to say anything but....The LGBTQIA+™ are really just a company trying to sell out merch. In history, they added the "T" to LGB because the LGB started to gain rights, so they wanted to find another "oppressed"(buzzword, woops) group to make more money have another "cause" or reason to keep going. In other words, more made-up sexualities, is more "flags" which is more merch, which is more profit for them.

And... Personally, I wouldn't ever buy or own a "sexuality flag" it seems rather odd. That'd be like buying a flag that represents blue eyes or curly hair. It's just strange.

So really, I don't care or mind others using the flag, it's just design, but I don't find myself using that (anymore--as a flair) to represent myself.
