Here's an interesting tidbit...the pink triangle came from the Holocaust...Jews got two yellow tringles (forming the Star of David) and gays (men only, they believed that lesbianism was cureable) who were also persacuted got a yellow triangle pointing up with a pink triangle pointing down to form a pink and yellow six point star...
Sorry, I have this thing for WWII...although don't talk to me about most other history or I will fall asleep on you!
