With June beginning in a few days, the month of LGBT pride has started again. I've seen mixed opinions on whether a whole month is needed for awareness and marches (however I will go on record to say I'm a straight ally). So what are your opinions here?

Happy pride month everyone- love it or hate it 😅. Thanks for the 100 responses on this debate, that's insane
Ideally for me there wouldn't be a pride month, week day or even minute. People who constantly chant that it's only "about everyone's equal value", are sorely ignorant of the political motives imbued in pride. It's a marshaling banner for a shapeless and immoral view on sex and sexuality, essentially trying to force it down our throats that anyone can "identity" as anything and thus alter reality to become it, or at the very least must be collectively identified as such, and that anyone and anything can love anyone or anything. It attempts to normalize all that which has hitherto been taboo, in front of children no less. I witnessed a pride parade in Stockholm a few years back where leathered up gay men in cages spanked each other in full view of minors, it was full on BDSM. And slowly but surely it's incorporating even more disgusting things like accepting pedophilia and bestiality. Furthermore you see "trans people for Palestine" and lgbtq people who promote Marxism, and other such nonsense, so anyone who believes the phenomena of pride hasn't transcended into a political tool for the radical left's agenda, is a fool.
No, I don't believe the lgbtq requires an entire month for themselves, let alone any day wherein they only parade themselves promiscuously and display banners and plaques emoting hatred and anger at perceived obsequious injustices done to them. They speak of love but they're angry, confused, bitter and hateful people trying to demolish all that is natural and replace it with something order-less that is contrary to biology, the Word of God, and science. One group in aforementioned pride parade only chanted "we are trans and we are angry". The ultimate witness to this are those of the pride-ranks who are reformed/converted to faith in Jesus who tell of the indoctrination and dangers beneath the parading surface.
@JulieLamar That's not logical. I base my standard on an objective morality that comes from God, that others hold morality relative doesn't change my objective standard.
If your morale comes from God, that suits me very well, but precisely in several countries which are still very religious, LGBT people are condemned to death or to prison.
Your Bible is a massive load of bullshit, it’s been disproven by science countless times. Morality is subjective, and homosexuality is natural. So your entire argument is asinine.
I’m comparing it to black history month. Black history month was created from the fact that black history was literally erased from history books in school. I don’t see a reason as to why there should be a pride month. Sure some people don’t like gay people and stuff like that but compared to the fact that black people in history were literally just skipped over despite everything. I just don’t see why there should be a pride month.
As a black person myself, just because lgbt wasn't like black history doesn't mean there's no point at all for pride month. lgbt people have been killed, kicked out, abused, beaten, sexually assaulted, suffered through conversion therapy and etc. Ajd not to mention, lgbt rights are still not a thing in a lot of countries. Pride is for them to feel PROUD of who they are because for decades they have been treated like shit.
You do realize in history LGBTQ communities where mass killed and that history is not taught or really explained. It's a huge lost part of history that being gay once was a huge normal thing, but eventually turned to horrible and people where executed for it. So it's actually pretty damn similar
Im not saying lgbt people can’t be proud of what they are and I know how lgbt people have been treated in the past all I’m saying though is that black history month was created because black people were literally erased from history. Every accomplishment every boundary broken everything was wiped from history books. So it was made so people would know about black history. So since I was strictly comparing the two , granted it’s not lgbt history month and was never marketed it to be, I don’t think it’s necessary to have a month to be proud of who you are y’all can be proud whenever. I’m not necessarily supposed to be proud im black every February it’s just recognizing the history. Again I’m strictly comparing the two months and what they’re recognized for.
Wait so you can honestly say that you've learned everything you need to know about lgbt history? Because I haven't , especially in school. I don't even think lgbt history is talked about in its entirety , all i hear about is the stonewall. I honestly think black history and lgbt history are in the same boat
@shadyresidence because LGBTQ isn't tought at all at school. You don't learn about famous gay people who accomplished things or how common it was in Victorian times for men to take young boys as lovers because homosexuality was just so normal then. Or that due to the rise in Christianity that acceptance became hatred and resulted in mass killings of homosexuals. Hell most people don't even know why the word Faggot is so offensive to gay people
I'm not saying that there hasn't been struggles within the LGBT, but can people please stop comparing it to black history. They are two distinct struggles, and it's disrespectful to black people throughout the world. You can hide your sexuality, but for the most part, you can't hide being a n*gga.
"Black people are no longer discriminated against, get over it". You're either extremely ignorant or a child. Educate yourself before making such statements. I never insulted the LGBT. I'm only saying that our history shouldn't be compared.
Pride month is not about everyone elses feelings and what they think or don't think about it---Pride is about the people it is meant to celebrate, those who are LGBTQI+ and the allies that support and love them. Just as with civil rights, people have this convoluted opinion that if a group has won a certain amount of rights, like anti-discrimination laws, or gay marriage, all of a sudden, they "should be" happy enough with that, shut up, and leave everyone else alone. Laws don't protect people from bullying, harassment, being kicked out of your house because you come out, or discrimination at work/school etc. They can help, but they rarely stop these things from happening and so for that kid or that adult that has to endure all of that all year long, having a month for themselves where they can express themselves around other people like them and celebrate who they are and what they represent CAN help that kid not kill himself, or discover she's not alone, or find their tribe, or be free for just a little bit. Who am I to stand in the way of that or to say you can't or shouldn't celebrate that? Pride month does not affect my life. Other people celebrating who they are has not interrupted my daily activities or oppressed me so for those that get all dramatic with it and can't handle it, it's like, really, honestly, calm down.
Yes there should be. LGBTQ people are constantly facing discrimination, and pride month is a small time where the discrimination is lessened. Also, with all the discrimination, it's a time for LGBTQ people to show that they are still proud to be themselves. I am speaking from experience, as I am aroace and have lots of friends who are also LGBTQ.
By the way, shoving your religion down to people's throats ain't going to make them follow your beliefs. Also, pride month should be kept because of how lgbtq citizens fought their rights. The people who don't support are the same as those who don't support black history month. History is trying to repeat itself, and the only way we can do it is to make changes to it, such as taking down absurd monuments that insults minorities.
We still don't have them in my country and I hope it stays this way. But I don't know how long it will last since the EU is lowkey putting pressure on us and blackmailing us into jumping on the LGBTQ+ bandwagon.
It's merely another facet of neo-colonialism and wanting to impose western values and ideologies on poore nations using the "Human Rights" card (which by the way are also the product of western thinking and which unironically developed at a time where my country and the rest ot Africa was still colonised and getting oppressed by the west... human rights... unless you're not white).
Gay parades are extremely indecent and overly sexual manifestations. The people are dressed provocatively and doing freaky suggestive moves. PDA between heterosexual is considered indecent in my country and it's no different for the LGBT squad. Western society pornifies and sexualizes everything (pronification of everything) to the point where they see gayness in everything such as men friends holding hands. But we still try to maintain a minimum level of decency over here even if y'all keep on bullying us for being "regressive".
My opinion can be very controversial, but I'll mention anyway.
Pride: Deep satisfaction from one's own achievements.
I have nothing against LGBT community, I believe it's up to people to do whatever they want with their own body, as long as it doesn't affect others negatively.
The term pride is a bit too generic, if publically shouting out your sexuality is as proud as a young child inventing technologies as par with professionals or mastering arts that are too great for anyone to achieve. It's not in the same category, is it?
In order to create awareness people can celebrate a month but not pride month, may be LGBT month?
Should there be? Nah but ONLY because we shouldn't need a special month just to be recognized in society. It should be an all year acceptance or at the very least tolerance of lgbt members. (by the way I feel the exact same way for other special months to recognize those in the minority. I am looking at you February.) All these special months of pride should be a pride we celebrate all year, not once a month so people can feel less guilty about themselves for a bit and not so corporations can slap a rainbow on their merchandise and call it a day.
And if they can give me an answer that isn't full of hate, paranoia or jealousy we should let them enjoy their month of celebrating their pride and happiness.
The truth is the pride month that homophobes hate so much only exists because they can't leave them alone and mind their business.
In fact, most people do. Most people don't give a damn about that, and yet they still have to watch half naked people parading in all leather and dog masks outfits, making out as if they're going to fuck right there on the road, and being openly sexual. And that in front of kids, when they don't directly bring kids there. If you want people to "mind their business", don't bring your business to them. Those who didn't care now care because you're forcing them to.
Their pride is in their shame. Parades are pointless. I've rarely seen lesbians have to fear backlash from anyone. The parades seem to be nothing but exhibitionist excuses to traumatize and groom children, which is abuse.
I fully agree with the trending new hash tag for describing those who insist on it: #OKGroomer.
For background, I once ran a Facebook group in 2014 titled "Protect the Victims of Kaitlyn Hunt." It sided with the court and prosecutors in that case. I received terrorist threats , and had to shut the group down only 12 hours after it went online.
The garden variety lesbo is whatever. But when you start protecting minors from state-sanctioned outlets for corruption of minors? The freaks come out of everywhere, like a zombie apocalypse. Parades... only invite trouble.
Edit: And dedicating an entire month to saying you like to take it in the ass is beyond stupid. Plenty of women seem to enjoy men doing that to them. And they never demanded their preference be celebrated for an entire month. Seriously, it's inane.
Lesbians don't face much "backlash" because they are HEAVILY sexualized and their sexuality is treated as sexual pleasure for men. I actually met a woman who was gang r*ped along with her girlfriend , and there are a lot of lesbian women who go through stuff like that. But you're only using one example, gay men , trans people, along with lesbian and bisexual people have been killed, beaten, kicked out, discriminated against in public places, denied service, faced conversion therapy and etc. All you're doing is invalidating the stuff they go tbh
@shadyresidence : In which decade? And how am I invalidating someone facing domestic abuse by wanting to end venues for predators? That makes no sense.
If someone has faced legitimately a case of domestic abuse, regardless of sexual interests, then let them have their soapbox. But to argue that denying predators easy access to prey constitutes abuse, and conflate it with your vague other examples, is just disingenuous.
An LGBT pride month is unnecessary for spreading awareness, marching, and expressing LGBT pride. LGBT people and their supporters could and should express pride and spread awareness regarding LGBT issues whenever they wish without having to relegate their efforts to a single calendar month. In fact, I feel the same way about Black History Month as a Black woman, whereas the importance of Black history should be noticed every single day, not for just the short month of February. Individual LGBT people do great things to benefit society and/or undergo hardships because of their sexual orientation within every calendar month. Therefore, they should express their pride and spread awareness to LGBT issues within every calendar month as well.
Why i mean should there be an illegal alien day too, i mean enough is enough keep having all these different days for this one that one won't get anything done if ever day is a holiday they lgbt whoever get their period enough we don't need to have a day so the get can shake their tight pants wearing asses at us as they parade by, it to show how deeply in love they are by kissing and having sex in public yes i know there here they're in our faces something like that their slogan goes, hell next you will save a black lives matter day, how will they celebrate it by rioting your city each year enough already next thing you know every body named Fred will want their day too
It doesn't bother me one way or another. I don't partake in the celebration. However, I have discovered that a lot of gay people hate pride month, they hate the marches or gatherings. All the people that hate pride month just want to be left alone to live their lives without being out in the spot light. I have close personal friends that are gay or bisexual and they don't celebrate gay pride month. They feel it is too flashy and not about being happy, it is about people being belligerent about their sexuality. Being happy with your sexuality is one thing but having to flaunt it in a parade or marches to get noticed is a little much. Black history month is less flashy and it is a big deal. Asian heritage month is practically unknown. Being happy with what or who you are is great, but having to flaunt it to the world brings positive and negative attention.
I'm A lesbian and my wife and I don't do the whole "pride fest" stuff.. but its bc we are older.. you're right, it is very belligerent, sexual, and a reason to drink. I'm not against bit I've grown out of it. I refuse to be identified by my sexuality... when I was younger it was a big deal bc it wasn't as accepted to be gay. I came out at 12yo. It was fun to go to pride when I was in my early 20's bc it was a reason to part and meet women 😆. It's for the youth.. I say let them have their fun and party.. thats what young people are supposed to do
Agreed. Like I said I don't care for it one way or the other. If they want to celebrate then so be it but I don't want it impacting my day to day. As long as I can go on about my normal day then all is good.
I am not a big fan of labels but they are creating a different sexuality like every other month. I can't keep up any more. I am in full support of the gay community. One of my coolest best friends is a gay blank lady and I love her to death. I almost got fired because someone said they would punch a gay person in the face of they tried to talk to him. I called him an arrogant bigot. I wanted to tear him down to the floor but I value my job more than his stupid opinion.
I respect the LGBTQ community from the bottom of my heart. I know some gay couples and I'm obsessed with them and they look so cute together.
But I think, to perceive LGBTQ people as normal people as you guys are, you guys have to be regular. Because as far as I know, straight people don't have any prides, so I guess you guys gotta make it normal to make other people look at you as normal.
PS: I have no issue or negative opinion on the LGBTQ community and in the future, if my son or daughter joins the community, I will be more than happy about it.
I honestly could not give a fuck. Kinda miss when people just kept their personal business to themselves.
I can understand the need for LGBT community to commemorate pivotal moments like the stonewall riots on their anniversary dates.
But I could do without the constant virtue signalling on social media from both private citizens and corporate entities who have no actual association with LGBT issues. So it's become less about LGBT people being "proud" than it's about everyone else wanting to cash in on those sweet social media popularity points.
Those months generally don't mean a lot to me, or anyone I know.
Having a whole month to something, means very little... the biggest problem I could see though is at some point there is going to be more than 12 things to fight for.
Then what?
Maybe it would be better to be a day, a holiday for example. Seems a little short sighted to think that we will only ever have 12 issue we can focus on. By giving them each a month, that is essentially what we are saying.
But like I started out with, I know of no one that pays attention to what issue is being focused on this month, last month or next month. Maybe those issues should be focused on daily rather than just one month a year.
At least for me it doesn't work, I'm not even sure what May is for... but I know what Memorial day holiday (Today) is for.
First off (and let me first point out, this entire rant is aimed at anyone who fits the bill), almost no one cares who you have sex with (except maybe some creepy religious weirdos, but you can't change their minds on acceptance any better than the atheist scientific community has).
Secondly, People typically don't acknowledge months dedicated to anything. No strait person is going to celebrate gay pride and no gay person is going to need to.
I really don't understand this whole gender/orientation/nationality/race/heratige/etc pride crap.
People are individuals, not product types.
Also (and this is the most important part), needing support, acceptance, or more visibility is THE WRONG WAY TO THINK.
You should be ignoring other people's opinions, not begging them to change them.
Apparently plenty of people have opinions on who others have sex with, being that marriage “equality” is only a few years into acceptance, federal jobs were still denying LGBT+ folks until this year, and businesses and government offices were still denying services to LGBT+ folks until the Supreme Court deemed it unconstitutional to deny those rights.
@Luckylobo_taco5 businesses have the right go deny anyone employment who is not qualified for the job, or for any reason really.
Heck if I only wanted to hire my best friends or my family members for my own business, I have every right to do that. And in cases where the employer wasn't hiring for that reason, I'm not sure you could prove the reason anyone wasn't hired had anything to do with their sexual orientation or gender.
Everything you mentioned was fixed in a court room, and had nothing to do with having a month, holiday, etc, or even being lgbt+, and everything to do with violating existing constitutional rights regarding how the government is allowed to operate.
There is a huge difference between not wanting support, and being a doormat or controlling of others.
You can not care about people's opinions without being a doormat, and you can care about your own opinion without being controlling.
Yeah, not for state or government business, you’re talking about personal businesses. But you also have to look at labor laws and what constitutes discriminatory practices when it comes to hiring, so you’re wrong on a lot of that.
Pride month is about celebrating how far LGBT+ people have come along. From being able to publicly be with the person they love to getting their rights. As well as not getting discriminated, hated, excluded, and erased for their sexuality. Any other things would be like getting to have a safe space for them to meet others like them.
I'm not here to say anything about if there should or shouldn't be a pride month.
But can well all come together to call out the corporations for changing their product labels to rainbow flags to pander to the masses? Because they really don't care. If the public was against the LGBT corporations like Coca-cola and Disney would be printing anti LGBT slogans on their products/brands.

No, Why should there be a pride month, when you have some people in the LGBT community that feel its ok to harm children.. ANd some people in the trans community specifically who feel like its ok to erase what it means to be a woman. Please dont get me wrong here, i fully support equal rights for all, What i do not support is erasure of what it means to be a man or a woman.. Calling a mother ( yes i will use the correct term) a birthing person.. and the like.
Well I think that it needs to be limited but it's getting old as the lbgtq community is trying to make pride a never ending year long holiday that never ends. Case in point you can't watch the news , read a newspaper or magazine , watch a tv show or movie , even commercials have references to gay pride. It's old and tiring. A once a year is fine but I'm tired of hearing it Everytime I open my email , watch the news , read a newspaper etc. It's non stop 24/7/365. Yes they have a right to be happy and enjoy their lifestyle but stop forcing down those who don't share , endorse , or partisapate Now I'm sure someone will complain so my account gets frozen but I have a right to my opinion as others have rights to their opinions too
These celebrations of whatever you identify as are ridiculous and need to be purged. If there's a pride month, there will be a transgender month, a crossdresser month, a non-binary month, a month for every country background in the world. Like go celebrate your shit in privacy and don't show the whole damn world.
☝️☝️☝️ Seriously companies pretend to be woke for one month and that's it, it always seems like I'm being marketed to when I see things like the rainbow lego sets
For me I've never understood why people get mad about pride month or women's month or black history month because the only thing most people can really notice that changes is just advertisements. Stores put out decorations but people don't decorate their home around pride month. Or do they? I've never lived with LGBT people lol.
Pride is about raising awareness and pushing for acceptance around the world, as well as reassuring and comforting LGBT people. If it was only a week, it would be easy to ignore. A month gives us time to properly show our history, celebrate how far we've come, and educate others.
No one cares. Just be like everyone else, instead of constantly wanting to stand out and show you're different. Especially when the rest of the time, the LGBT community is absolutely toxic and hateful against those who aren't like them.
yes! i think its wonderful that we get to celebrate our sexuality. queer people have been discriminated against for much of history and its great to have a celebration of acceptance once a year. its a great place to have fun and meet people like you. i just wish big brands wouldn't slap rainbows on everything cuz its trendy.
I am so tired of all these months. I all ready turn off to all the existing months. And I change the channel whenever the news goes on about any gay, black, feminist feature. I don't go around forcing my beliefs or politics on people. Not should they. Be good with who you are and live your life. I don't care, and now more than ever I don't want to either.
Personally, i'd say no. If you want different sexualities to be seen as a normal part of life i dont think you should have an event that celebrates being different. If you want an event that celebrates sexuality in all forms fair enough. That being said, my girlfriend has many gay friends, we'll be attending with them at some point with our kids, i'm told it's quite an event.
If everyday, week or month has some sorta title to make it special then it's not so special. I am not ageist if people wanna do it, but to me seems very mundane. And personally i hate depression week, and i have depression myself. It 100% don't help, just reminds me of how people just wanna look aware for a week then no one cares hypocrites much.
I think so yes. There are plenty of different months that have a significant meaning to different groups of people of multiple different backgrounds and religious beliefs so I think a pride month will add on to the culture of having a month to celebrate for the people that truly believe their sexual orientation to be significant to them including myself.
I don´t think there isn´t a month neeeded because where is the need for that. If you want humans to be treated like humans don´t put them on a special platform. In my experience non-binar make a bigger fuss about what´s binar and gender than people who don´t consider themselves non-binar.
Binary, non-binary. Whatever. Why the obsessive need to categorize everyone’s race, sexual preferences and gender? People are not species to be categorized like animals in Darwin’s research. What’s next? Name tags that read: “I’m a cis non gendered trans retard African- Asian American atheist from the planet Drewida.” This is literally how all you leftist sound. This is so pretentious and self absorbed. Please tell your fellow leftists you look like retards and to stop with this.
@Exterminatore Sorry for the confusion. I´m not a native English speaker. I´m actually on you´re side because what you wrote sums up pretty much what I meant. I´m neither a leftist.
No. The alphabet sexuality community gets already way too much attention. It's way out of any reasonable proportion. Forcing more of a hat down the majority of normal people's throats will nothing but cause resentment and aggression. It won't help people with atypical sexuality. It will harm them.
Fuck no. The LGBT are already constantly annoying people by talking about themselves every fucking day, on every fucking occasion. Also, what is there to be proud of your sexuality? It's not an achievement, you're born like that. And finally, you're not an ally. There are no allies, you're straight, they hate you as much as they hate me. You're just a tool they'll use before throwing you away and spit on you as soon as you're not useful anymore.
Why does every niche group need a special month/day/or holiday? Why can’t people just keep their preferences between themselves and their partners? If every group needs a holiday then we need a foot fetishers day or month also... see the issue? I say live and let live but no need to flaunt unnecessarily.
Nope. Pretty damn stupid how we have a month for every major progressive victim group. While we're at it, we can have tranny month, queer month, furry month, retard month, and non-gender conforming people's month.
I don’t see how it’s anything special. Do straight people get a straight month? No, I don’t think anyone cares if you’re straight, gay, bi, les, or whatever you wanna be. 🤷🏼♀️
Are straight people forced into conversion therapy? Beaten, killed, kicked out, denied service for their sexuality or their identity? No , peyton , they aren't
Everyone is, it’s not just the lgbtq. There’s mass killings regardless of whatever orientation you are. People get beat and bullied even if they are straight, denied service? Shit there sure is a lot of people who are denied service that aren’t a part of lgbtq, not to mention being kicked out for whatever reason yeah there’s a lot of those people to who go through the same shit these lgbtq people do. The lgbtq “community” are just sensitive and honestly I don’t think anyone in the right mind cares to hear about pride month. When these people protest and they get hurt they blame it on everyone and everything but themselves, couldn’t forget that. 💁🏼♀️
Everything you just said still does not prove that people are having these things happen to them just because they're straight. You're sounding real dense rn
I don't think it's changing anything or anyone. People are aware already, they just have different opinions? And you surely can't change anyone's opinions easily at least not like this lol, it gets annoying and people's opinions become even more firm or something as per ny observation.

It is not an officially sanctioned and recognized observance. We cannot prevent anyone from celebrating whatever they want to celebrate.
Dunkin' Donuts and Krispy Kreme promote National Doughnut Day. Big deal. Hallmark and the rest of the card industry created Grandparents Day so they could sell more cards. Big deal. Rainbow month or whatever they want to call it. Big deal. A bunch of lesbians and homosexuals marching in a parade doesn't change what I think about them.
I'm not a homosexual so It has nothing to do with me. It's like asking me if there should be National Guide Dog month in September. Well I'm not blind and I don't have a dog so I don't care. And I like to live my life the way I want to live it, so I try to offer others the same courtesy. I don't see anything wrong with Pride month, other than the ugly rainbow colors, but that's my aesthetic hang up.
Date, sleep with, marry the same sex if you’d like. But it becomes a little annoying when you want to show off your sexuality to the public. Do you want a medal? Cool, just know not everyone is interested in giving you one.
woah what? Pride Month isn’t just for people who are apart of the LGBTQ+ community, Yes a lot of the community attends the parade but so do people who aren’t apart of the community. The parade and the entire month is to show support to people especially those who are apart of that community 👏🏽 they deserve an entire year
only if there is Heterosexual Pride months. I, as straight, white male, am not going around and telling everyone how proud I am to be heterosexual and that I like women. Same thing applies to "history" and any other months.
no, its a stupid and divisive concept that alienates everyone else. its not a real thing anyway just like how social media has a stupid holiday every day "oh its national hotdog day" shut up facebook: no it isn't
My wife an i are and will always be supporters of LGBT community and we have been to the gay parade 4 times already.
But there needs to be some changes, the entire month seems to only be about parties, sex and drugs. There is a shortage on information about the struggles LGBT people had in our history its all just about having fun.
Pride month, I don't know maybe a pride week. I'm glad being gay had turned from being a terrible thing into something thats now accepted. I'm glad tv shows now are showing same sex relationships are normal. I'm not sure if it needs to be a whole month... I do agree that it should be celebrated
I personally think gay etc. people are just people, creating specific events to highlight them in particular does exactly that, highlight them as a group in particular. I think that should be the exact opposite of the goal. Instead of including them in the set, you clearly define them as a subset. There's no gay people, they're people. That said, you do you, I don't really care.
I am part of the LGBTQIA+ community. In all honesty, I would say 'no, maybe we could shorten it to 'pride week' or something', but it's just too fun to see how pissed off Homophobes/Transphobes get about it. So yeah, Pride month! XD
A month is a bit excessive. It’s also overly cancerous. Like the parades are creepy af. Like parents letting adults kiss their same sex children. And abundance of bdsm stuff, e. g, a woman in a bath tub getting pissed on by a bunch of guys. Like hey, it’s not a fetish parade, freaks. At this point I think it’s done. Homosexuality is accepted already and so the “celebration” is just overly masturbatory.
And if we’re not going to throw it out then how about let’s have straight pride.

No and I want straight parade and straight people month too, in case they will get it.
I don't care who dates who, just when straight people wanted parade it was declined and it was in US.
Another thing I do not want it all up my face, nonsense, same as I do not see the need to show everybody that I date a woman...
Definetly. Pride month is a celebration that allows everyone from the LGBTQ+ Family to come together and express themselves without judgment from others. People who aren’t apart of the family should still express gratitude for those apart of pride because it’s not easy being uniquely different especially in a society that hates anything ✨Unique✨ Happy Pride!🥰

A month seems excessive, honestly. I mean, black history is a month and a shorter month. Which seems a little wrong, if you ask me. Maybe have a pride day, instead.
It's not really anyone's place to stop the celebration from existing. If they don't like it or don't want to celebrate it then dont participate. Trust me nobody is dragging you to the march lol.
It's self-proclaimed. You are free to ignore it. In my neighborhood there will be a street fair. My wife and I like going out and just seeing all the happy people.
Never , we don't have a "normal" month or" Straight "month. This should be looked at as abnormal behavior or as deviant behavior. As a matter of fact is still against the law in many states.
No, there should not be a "pride" month... and especially not for anything immoral. Prideful feelings are sinful in the eyes of God, unless you are, perhaps, proud of your children for one reason or another
Let's tear down this whole country and start anew. From now on, there's no black rights, white rights, women's rights, men's rights, LGBTQ rights, straight rights, etc. There should only be... HUMAN rights.
Pride is a sin. Im not proud that a fucked my girlfriend, why would a man be proud he likes sticking his dick in hairy assholes? Thats just disgusting anyone would be proud of any bodily function.
WTF is there to be proud of? Preferring your own type of plumbing? That is fine with me but it is not some kind of accomplishment. If it was called LBGT rights month it might make more sense.
