I’m applying for housing at UC Davis right now, and I am thinking about applying for Rainbow house, which is the housing for students and supporters of LGBTQ. I’m not sure if I’m gay but I thought I’d give it a shot. My parents aren’t that supportive of the gay community and I don’t feel ready to tell them yet that I’m bi/gay. The rainbow house at UC davis is one floor of a dorm hall, and I was just thinking, on move in day, if my mom helps me move in and hangs out a bit, would she find out it’s the rainbow house? do the RA’s welcome you to the “rainbow house” or will there be any indications that it is gay housing on the walls or posters or anything?
Thank you

And make a plan accordingly for dealing with your mom. Don’t change housing!
Never heard of this place, but I’m pretty sure there are rainbow flags everywhere.
My boyfriend lived in the rainbow community in cuarto, is that what you’re talking about? Because if so, it’s just like any other place. It doesn’t have anything indicating the LGBTQ community lives there. And not everyone there is part of that community. My boyfriend chose to live there only because he wanted a suite style dorm
