    Got my first one TODAY :grin: along with a little something else :wink:

    Okay, so my mom and I are on a mini-vacation because our highschool starts in two weeks, we went to the mall today, I had checked online and they didn't have a Spencer's, bot low and behold, when I got there, they had one! So after I bought a couple of things from Hot Topic, I headed down there. I bought two, TWO pride things. One sweat wristband that was all rainbow.

    Aaaand, a Pride necklace
    Rainbow Double Dog Tag Necklace

    And it was on sale!

    Well, that little something else I mentioned before, I got one of those mini bodywand massagers :3 I wrapped it in an Iron Man arc reactor shirt from Hot Topic, it's currently under the front passenger seat of the car waiting for when we get home, while the pride stuff is under all the crud in the glove compartment.

    Sooooo.... What was YOUR first pride product? And, what do you think of mine? lol

    That's awesome! I'm just lucky to have been able to smuggle it past my mom in a T-shirt and sneak it in the house after we got back :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I've never bought any 'pride stuff' but...
    I do have a HRC sticker that I got at pridefest a couple years ago (kept safely in the file-folder of gay-related stuff in my file cabinet (not much there, a few flyers from pridefest & such))
    Also had this rainbow-flag-ish thing I built

    I've made pride buttons- both for pansexuality (which everyone who's asked about it seems to think it's about cooking being that I drew a pan against the flag pattern. :dry:slight_smile: and gay pride. I'm getting a trans* pride bracelet within the week, which I'm excited about, being that no one around here has any inkling about what the colors mean.

    I made a trans pride bracelet, but lost it so I obviously don't wear it anymore. But, now I have a trans pride duct tape wallet. :grin:

    EDIT: Looks like this:

    Just blue, pink and white colors.

    A pride shirt
    A love proudly shirt
    An Equal Marriage Rights shirt
    A "Don't hate me because I'm a lesbian- otherwise I'll steal your girlfriend" shirt.
    And I've never
    worn
    any of them.

    Yours looks nice.

    I've never had a pride product, but I'm thinking of getting a small rainbow bracelet to wear on my right wrist.

    My first pride item was my hair, actually. I put rainbow extensions in my hair a couple of months ago. They were awesome while they lasted.

    My friend is supposed to be making me a rainbow beanie to wear this winter. I'm also considering ordering a pride bracelet right after I post this.

    I just have a couple of bracelets that I made myself... :icon_bigg
    My mom and sisters saw them but didn't realized that they are made with the colors of the lgbt flag :lol: (I'm actually not out to them..)

    Well I'm getting a new bearskin hat next month, and I was thinking on adding something on the cockade. Maybe a small rainbow pin...

    Bracelets and wrist bands are not my thing, and since I rarely wear tshirts (long sleeve shirts <3), I don't really feel like spending money on that.

    Plus, given my need to look '19th century' I can't dye my hair. :frowning2:

    Ergo I never had one. Any ideas?

    A friend bought me this little black wristband thingy with a metal clasp. Knowing how I'm still a bit timid about the whole coming out thing, it has small rainbow stripes engraved into the metal, but quite small so you can only really see it up close.

    Still haven't worn it...but I think I need to if I'm ever going to get to the 'fully out' stage.

    A rainbow bracelet which I just received in the mail today :grin:

    It looks like this: [​IMG]

    The colors are slightly darker, but it's no big deal. Need to get it adjusted at a jewelry store however, else I can't really wear it.

    I got my right ear pierced in college - back then, and back there, that meant you were gay. I'm not sure if that counts, though. :slight_smile: If not, I didn't own anything until I got this rainbow triangle necklace thing - it was given to me by a friend who didn't want it anymore. I only wear it on Pride Day, though, because I sort of stopped wearing jewelry and accessories at some point. (I even stopped wearing my watch.)
