How Users react to Linked-in PRIDE LOGO

Working with Linked-in for the past week under PRIDE or Rainbow flag slogan has been disturbing for many users.
 Middle eastern and North African users living in countries that still have some ground rules to follow regarding religion by applying boundaries and following ethics when it comes to the concept of Homo-sexuality by nature.
It is really stressful for such users to work in such an environment and you can't expect them to come to terms with such affiliation.
You can't describe them as judgmental because they are free to get annoyed for having to work in such an environment without having any rights to complain or raise their points of view.
They feel like having no choice and that they have to be on good terms with this forced new reality.
Raising PRIDE Flag in a Working Social Network is like including your personal life in your work, for many users it is unprofessional and some users even deactivated their accounts.
We hope to see Linked-in Team do something about it, after all, we need to connect in a convenient way for business to grow up & prosper.
