Gay Pride Google Doodle exists but it's in the closet

Google makes doodles to celebrate all kinds of significant events, and this month also happens to be Gay Pride Month. So Google decided to put a doodle to it - just not so conspicuously.

When users type in terms such as gay pride, bisexual, lesbian, and the like, one will see a rainbow bordering end of the search bar. (Try it and you'll see.)

Why did Google have to single out this doodle and put it 'under covers' or 'in the closet'?

A lot of gays do not want to be treated differently from their heterosexual counterparts, so why even put a doodle to it?

Meanwhile, the gay community is disappointed with Google for putting the rainbow in a not-so-visible manner. But some critics say Google is hiding it to avoid criticism from anti-gay advocates.

Google's spokeswoman released a statement: We enjoy celebrating holidays and special events at Google. As you may imagine, it's difficult for us to choose which events to celebrate on our site, and have a long list of those we'd like to celebrate in the future.
