A significant influence on the level of acceptance in a community is how publicly members of that community declare their acceptance. If someone has a rainbow pride flag on display, other community members feel social pressure to avoid homophobic slurs, and feel less pressure to conform to standard gender roles.

FFXIV is already a very accepting community, on the whole. On occasions, however, players will say something that is somewhat surprising. I personally don't think it's malicious, but a lot of people still use 'gay' as an insult. Its probably just a bad habit but it would still be great to change that.

So lets have Rainbow Pride chocobo barding. No need to make it lore in any way, everyone knows what it means already. Why would we not want rainbows on our chocobos?
