My dear lgbt+ kids,
Math is blue and English is red. Do you agree?
No matter if you do: the question makes no sense. Unless your school has a strict color code for your folders, there is no logical reason why Math should be any specific color. And yet, you probably have some intuitive opinion on it.
“Math is blue” just feels right to me - and it feels deeply wrong for some other people, even though neither of us can explain why. Some people even have a strong emotional reaction to it and feel irrationally angry at someone assigning the “wrong” color to a subject.
This is just one example that shows that our relationship with colors can be so personal and emotional. We assign meanings to colors, can feel connected to or comforted by a specific color, can link a color to a specific emotion etc.
And what lgbt-related thing has a whole bunch of color combinations? Pride flags.
Pride flags have a history and a meaning - and you can still have a emotional reaction to them that you can’t really explain.
I ocassionally get messages like “I am bi but I don’t feel any connection to the bi flag” or “I am asexual but the rainbow flag feels much more me than the asexual flag” and the people sending me those messages usually sound like they feel very guilty about their “weird” emotional response to some colors - I just want to use this letter to tell you: This is not a weird thing you do - it’s just one of those wonderfully weird human things. It’s nothing to feel guilty about at all.
With all my love,
Your Tumblr Dad
Hi
So I'm a desi. And I'm not very politically aware. But a lot of shit going on(I guess the social media news was the final tipping point) in the past 5-7 years(I think) has made me concerned. But I wanna educate myself. Do you have any resources to suggest? Books/Movies/Documentaries/Podcasts/Articles or anything?
Thank you!
