Your Shirt Is Gay 🏳️‍🌈

An otter-loving cutie in the Oxfordshire countryside just claimed this Aqua rainbow otter tank — because gay doesn’t stop at city limits.
Sleeveless. Sassy. Splash-ready.

An Aqua Tri-Blend tank top is laid flat on a white background. The front features a vibrant illustration of a rainbow-colored otter, sitting upright in a splash of colorful paint strokes. The otter has a sweet, alert expression and a prideful presence. The soft fabric and sleeveless cut suggest summertime ease and queer comfort.

OK, so the sunglasses were wishful thinking but it was still lovely to see #OxfordPride rainbows brighten up a rainy day!

Selfie of me in my living room wearing a rainbow lanyard, a white t-shirt with the word 'Proud' written on the chest in the colours of the progress pride flag, and a red tartan hoodie. I'm sort of smiling at the camera holding up a pair of rainbow sunglasses.

Photo of a beautiful dog at the pride march. The dog is wearing a rainbow flag almost as a cape or jacket, and looking back at the camera.

Photo of an intersex inclusive progress pride flag flying over one of the old buildings in Oxford. In the distance is a church tower and behind that lots of green trees. You can see the sky looks cloudy and rainy.

A rainbow pedestrian crossing in Oxford, looking across the street to the Oxford County Council building which is flying a whole load of LGBTQ flags from its windows, including the trans glad, the pride flag and the intersex flag.
