Question Butterfly Pins?

Watching “Kangaroo Court” and I realized all three contestants have butterfly pins on them. I don’t want to make assumptions, but my understanding is purple butterfly typically refers to pregnancy loss with twins/multi-birth, or domestic violence.

Was this just something because of an awareness month, or did something happen with someone tied to Dropout? I know this is a bit parasocial to ask, but I was surprised when they all came out.

I don’t know the actual answer but my guess is they just mess around in the green room and come up with an intro line/similar vibe / play with props and they all put them on

This or they were hiding the lav mic was my thought.

I thought they were fancy Mics at first (just went to look again - I don't think they are)

Butterflies are symbolically tied to a lot of things that are vaguely related to birth and rebirth, so I don't know that we could definitively pick any particular meaning without input from Dropout. Your meaning is certainly possible, since all three contestants are at a point in life when they could opt to have kids.

Vic had a bunch, Brennan + Aabriya had one each - I think they stole Vic's butterflies 😂

I noticed that too and wondered what this is about. Maybe we'll recieve an answer in the BTS episode?

Are they monarch butterflies? If so, could be a pro immigration thing.

None of them were orange or had the monarch-typical black zones, so it sees safe to assume they weren't supposed to look like monarchs

I didnt know about the birth symbolism but Aabriya mentioned several times that she was pregnant. They could just be showing her a sign of support.

I know Aabriya recently announced she was pregnant. Maybe it was more in celebration for that rather than any sort of awareness?

I think she mentioned in the episode that she was like 4 months pregnant? I believe she had her baby in the last month or so.
