you just have to look at the culture. Just because you dress a certain way and act a certain way does not mean you are gay.
Rainbows are a symbol for homosexuality in Japan though. Not exclusively, but it isn't exclusively a symbol for that in Western culture either. Now a rainbow flag would be a symbol of only homosexuality - in both cultures.

The overall point is something I agree with, just wanted to point that out
