Local council contacted the church after receiving one complaint about the banner An LGBTI-inclusive church in Adelaide has been ordered by the local council to remove a prominent rainbow banner from its frontage.

Ark Encounter, a fundamentalist Christian theme park that boasts a “life-size Noah’s Ark,” will light that ark up every night with a rainbow as a way to “take back” that symbol from LGBTQ people. Normally, when a building is lit up in rainbow colors, the owners of the building are trying to express support for LGBTQ people. The White House was lit up in rainbow colors to celebrate Obergefell v. Hodges, which ended state-level bans on people of the same...

Linda Harvey, the president of Christian right group Mission: America, is at it again with her absurd statements. This time she’s actually claimed that the rainbow has been “raped” by homosexuals and Christians should therefore trademark it. There’s no misinterpreting her: she wrote this herself in an article for World Net Daily. Harvey seems to hate the fact that the rainbow is an adopted and widely recognized symbol of the LGBT community. Pride Month has clearly upset Harvey, as has “McDonald’s...

A rainbow and transgender crossing has been vandalised for the second time in a week.

Who cares about new iPads? You are finally able to buy the famous Pride-themed Apple Watch band. Last year, the Californian tech giant gave the limited-edition bands to all employees marching in the San Francisco Pride parade. While the LGBTI community’s Apple fans were gagging for them, there was no way to actually get one. At least not without paying outrageous prices on eBay. Other suppliers stepped up, like watch accessory makers Clockwork Synergy, tapped into the trend and released rainbow bands looking very...
McDonalds

While the boxes will only be available this weekend to honor both the pride parade and Sunday’s National Equality March. “The rainbow fry boxes are a fun way to show our support of the LGBTQ community using one of McDonald’s...

Two years ago, his models wore no makeup. Last winter, black lips and Goth lipliner raised eyebrows. Each season, Marc Jacobs closes New York fashion week and always manages to cause a scene. But for his spring/summer 2017 show on Thursday, he caused a scandal by decking out his predominantly white models in rainbow-dyed dreadlocks.
