musing about "ally flag" hypothetical 

"ally flags" are corny. let's just get that outta the way. i'm not going to defend ally flags here. i appreciate the sentiment but it's silly that people feel obligated to go "i'm not gay but." ok, that's out of the way, here's my suggestion for an ally flag:

what if they just took the rainbow flag & put a smiley face on it to show that they're "quiltbag/LGTBQ/queer-friendly" instead of trying to like… make a flag /for straight people?/

re: musing about "ally flag" hypothetical 

@goaty also like, they can just use the rainbow flag to show their allyship, like, what's the hangup there

re: musing about "ally flag" hypothetical 

@noiob yeah i really don't get it. but if they're gonna have a weird hangup they could at least use a flag that looks nice

@goaty I mean the weird hangup is "people might think I'm gay". It's basically the "no homo" flag
