That's a good idea : ) Looking at ebay, I think they have a lot of nice ones. I personally like this one aimed at lesbians: Click here
It's a great idea! My girlfriend recently came out to her parents and a handful of friends and school mates (using Facebook, aha) but now she wears rainbow bands so I think she'll end up doing the same. Good luck with future questions! (*hug*)
I contemplated getting one, and I am half-way out. Of immediate family, there's my sister and brother left. my parents know. But I am not completely comfortable with everyone knowing. (like there's a few ones from school I didn't like, and I happen to run into them once too often) But I still never get one. because I am afraid of people maybe asking in public, and I'd have to answer. And then everyone will go like: um so you are bi, like, how is it, I didn't know, blablabla *stareface* But now I want a bracelet-kind of thing, not sure what I'd get tbh. Answering your actual question though.. Yes it sounds like a good idea But always wait until you feel the time is right. Wearing a pride accessory is just a token for how far you've come, and I can't wait until I'll wear one myself one day
Right now, I'm trying to figure out an easy way to come out to friends when school starts up again next year, and this is a pretty good idea. Maybe I'll try it! I've also heard of people wearing those rings with pink triangles on them, but I don't think as many people would know what it means. I'd go ahead and try wearing a bracelet because it can't hurt if people don't know what it means, right? Then you're just wearing a pretty bracelet. In all seriousness, though, I would go for it.
This is a great way to come out. I'm considering doing the same, I'm already out, but not entirely open about it, this would be the perfect way to go about it
Sounds fantastic. I have a necklace I made, but it hasn't gotten any questions yet! But jewelry is a great way to express yourself.
do u thank a double male gender ring wold work just found out and like them better dont like braslits to much
Hey you all! i have to say, i read about those bracelets some time ago and i thought it was a splendid idea. now i own a few of them. i also have a few pieces of rainbow clothing. i hoped people would ask about it, so i could tell more people. But for me there turned out to be a flaw in that argumentation, cause i am a naturally colourful person and i dressed like as colourful as possible basically my whole life, even before i found out I might not be that straight. So apparently no one even thought about the meaning it might have^^ which sucks, really, cause it would just make it so much easier....
Even if only one Gay Person see's your Bracelet & becomes aware that you are Gay, then it will be worth it
I think I'm going to steal your idea . It's so much easier than to have to awkwardly bring it up haha.
That's what I was planning, but I don't have a credit card, and I doubt there are Bi-Pride band in stores. I could get a MasterCard. It's only 3 bucks online.
This is a good idea but some people will not make the connection. I remember I was in secondary school (equivalent of high school in Ireland) and one of my friends had an entire rainbow pencil case set and bracelet. I didn't make the connection between them and being gay (this was before I started coming out). Just be aware if someone doesn't know that it's a gay pride thing they will most likely think you just really like rainbows that's what I thought about my friend.
its a good idea i have 1 that is homemade i just got som black string and the 6 rainbow colored ruber bands and and had to rap them arond it to make a full rambow wore it to school and a girl out of the closet as bi only to me and som close frends saw it and winked
