.... about the courage part. But I disagree with your premise. The term is effective and it is not necessarily aimed at gay people. To be honest, to be a ballerina and wear a pink tutu and dance for others takes courage also. Maybe not the same courage as it takes to stand up and be who you are when parts of society are idiots, but courage nonetheless.
Images like this are based on deeply held symbolism and quite often have nothing to do with anything factual.
I wish you wouldn't take it personally, when I use the term I am most definitely not thinking it applies to you.
