why are rainbows the symbol for the gay community?
<|assistant|>
The rainbow has been adopted by the gay community as a symbol of pride and hope because it is a sign of hope and a symbol of God’s promise to humankind after the Flood. Its association with the gay community began in the 1970s during the Gay Pride marches, when the colors of the rainbow were interpreted as symbolizing the diversity of the LGBTQ+ community. It has since become a universal symbol of gay pride and inclusivity.
