In World War II, the Nazis forced gay males to wear pink triangles. "Asocial" people (this included feminists, lesbians, and women who did not perform the traditional roles of heteronormative housewives) were forced to wear black triangles. For these reasons, the triangle has been adopted as a symbol of LGBT pride.
