Rainbow

Guys.
Lose the rainbow. Quickly.
I don’t give two hoots about other peoples’ sexuality, but I don’t want it ramming forcibly down my throat.
Secondly, I don’t give two hoots about American Law – it may come as a surprise, but there ARE other countries out there that aren’t “in” America – and I don’t want that shoving down my throat, either.
You’ve got a real nerve forcing this on everyone.

From an earlier Staff reply:
The rainbow master bar was added in support of the Supreme Court of the United States ruling on same-sex marriage today.
WordPress.com has joined other companies such as Tumblr, Twitter, Google, and Facebook in showing our support for marriage equality.

However, as this is a polarized issue and the community support forums are not the place to hold such discussions we are closing threads related to the mastbar.

I notice that you are acting as pro-rainbow forum police on this matter.
I have self-hosted sites and they aren’t the problem. The problem is on the WordPress.com dashboard which I use for my stats.
I – like many of the others you have informed – know full well what it is, and why it is. I knew the instant I saw it, because the tiny margin voting in favour of US Law changes legalising gay marriage has been all over the media.
I’d jus like to point out that gay marriage has merely become legal (in the US). It hasn’t, to my knowledge, been made compulsory yet.
AND THAT IS WHY I DON’T WANT IT SHOVING DOWN MY THROAT.

And I don’t want to keep seeing a cut-and-pasted “temporary fix” which disappears on page refresh.

Hi all,
As mentioned previously, the banner is temporary. It will eventually be removed. I’ll be closing this thread.
