Lavender is the person you met and instantly clicked with. They're the sweetest, most genuine person you've ever laid eyes on. They walked into your life like they had always lived there, being in their presence brings out the best version of yourself.

The Lavender Menace was an informal group of lesbian radical feminists formed to protest the exclusion of lesbians and lesbian issues from the feminist movement at the Second Congress to Unite Women in New York City on May 1, 1970.
The Republican Party, especially its much-hyped “base,” is in no danger of becoming the next “lavender Menace.”

Don: She really makes me laugh and smile a whole lot.
Anna: Ah. You're in the lavender haze.
Don: Yes... I think I'm going to ask her to marry me.

A term used in the 1930s, and can still be applied today. It's a term meaning if you are an actor who happens to be gay or lesbian like so many people in the 1930s, the agent of that actor tries to marry them off with a straight person. It is either this or lose everything when the public and fans find out a particular actor is homosexual.
These days it's no big deal to come out of the closet, but there are still gay actors married to a straight spouse for appearance, and reputation. This called a Lavender marriage.

A mixed-orientation marriage used to hide someone's sexual orientation; it can be done for religious reasons, reputation, preservation of things like your career or public image, etc. It is often a gay man marrying a gay woman.
"Brennan and Alyssa got married last week."
"Whoa! But I thought he was gay."
"He is, and so is she. But they're both Christians, so they got married."
"Oh, that's weird. What were the colors?"
"Lavender and rose, 'cause it was a 'lavender marriage'"
"Nice pun!"

A town in Pokemon Red, Blue, Yellow, Green, Gold, Silver, Crystal, Fire Red, Leaf Green, Heart Gold, and Soul Silver. It is the burial ground for dead Pokemon and has really creepy music in Pokemon Red, Blue, Yellow, Green, Fire Red, and Leaf Green. The music is happy in Gold, Silver, Crystal, Heart Gold, and Soul Silver because they replaced the burial grounds with a radio tower. An early version of the music in Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green caused Lavender Town Syndrome.
So I was Playing Pokemon Blue and when I got to Lavender Town I turned off my music because it was to freaky.
