A person stands supporting the bottom of a huge flag being hoisted. The flag is a rainbow with eight stripes of pink, red, orange, yellow, green, turquoise, indigo and violet.

On this day in 1978, the rainbow flag first flew as a symbol of pride. It was raised at San Francisco Gay Freedom Day.

Seriously, I am not looking for religious partners or exotic partners or handsome ex-military partners or sad widower partners. Get more creative, scammers. Those scripts won't work here.
