why are rainbows the symbol for the gay community?
<|assistant|>
Rainbows have become a symbol of the gay community for several reasons. Firstly, they are the colors of the pride flag, which is commonly flown by members of the LGBTQ+ community to symbolize their pride in who they are. Secondly, they represent the hope of something better that is often associated with the community's fight for equality and acceptance. Lastly, rainbows have a strong association with the Biblical story of Noah, who created the first Pride celebration after the great flood, and have long been used as a representation of something that unites us all, no matter our differences or beliefs.
