its a great design teaching you about colours and you don't have to be gay to wear it. I really hate it that everyone thinks the rainbow is only a gay symbol.

I like this shirt and I'm not Gay, (not that their is anything wrong with it) seinfeld. I think it would be even better if you had the knights pinky sticking out though.

Nice!

Hooray for 8 colour prints! We can finally have proper rainbows on our tees. Take that "Visible Light!" and "Afternoon Delight".

i think some people are not getting the concept here.

ROYGBIV is the spectrum: red orange yellow green blue indigo violet

and it is sometimes remembered by the phrase: Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain.

however i think this is more common in england, becuase i've always just been taught to say "Roy G. Biv" like it was a name to remember the spectrum.

so yeah, noting at all to do with homosexuality

Nicely done, but the outline around the hand/sword bothers me a little.

Thanks deadpuppy, I probably should have mentioned that in my opening comment.

It's a mnemonic device to remember the color spectrum, mostly in England though.

I flipping LOVE IT! It's just the whole rainbow=gay symbol dealy. I love rainbows but I dont want to be labeled a lesbian. It's a great design, but I'd really have to think about buying it.

HAHAH!! Who would've thought that just for wearing a color spectrum/rainbow, you're automatically labeled as a lesbian?

Anywho, I love this shirt. I'm not a lesbian but I'd wear it A LOT!!

OH homophobia. I'd wear a rainbow shirt just to show support for the gay community, and it'd be cute if someone assumed I was gay for wearing it! Then I could educate them both about the ROYGBIV thing, and the fact that rainbows aren't solely a gay symbol, and further that wearing a gay symbol does not necessarily make you gay! Come on straight folks, let's wear more rainbows in heterosexual communities to help people get over their rainbow/gay discomfort.

"omg are you serious, people actually label each other because they wear visually appealing colours that just happento be visually appealing to a certain group too...."

LOL! The irony of this statement is classic!

The "Pride" flag signifies DIVERSITY in the LGBT community. Not because gays and lesbians find it "visually appealing"!!!

Is that kinda like an extension to the "gay gene" debate?!

I'm not trying to be mean, but that was pretty funny =)

Re Tshirt - Love it!
