Oh Bri, that’s good. I agree with the two ending comments:

“We wish the gay goth community well but our view is that the rainbow flag already reflects the full diversity of LGBT people,” said Nigel Evans, a Lancashire LGBT charity representative. “We do not need to add further colors to differentiate gay goths.”

A word of advice for Tepes: You don’t need to add stripes to the pride flag to have a gay gothic flag. There are plenty of subgroup specific LGBTQ flags out there, so all it takes is getting a bit creative. Like, say, more creative than just throwing an extra stripe onto a preexisting flag.

Seriously.
