Don't misunderstand my post here, but I'm not particularly a fan of any sort of these 'pride' rallies or months, despite being all for everyone's rights to live however they want to.
I guess I don't understand how putting a certain group on a pedestal is any sort of progress into what I thought was the end goal here: equality.
Would everyone celebrate a straight white pride month in this day and age? Yeah, probably not. But isn't that equality too?
In my experience, you'd be surprised how little most people care at all how you choose to live your life; but it's only when you get blatant and shove it in their faces when hostility begins to show. And that ironically just creates more want to further showcase 'pride', becoming more public and blatant, and then the other side gets more angry, etc.... and it's just a worsening loop that never leads to any progress into what should be the true end goal here.
I'm sorry if my post is a downer or clashes against most modern day PC notions, but I have a right to post my own thoughts on this topic too, right? And if it creates more discussion, I guess that's not a bad thing either. I'd rather that than just everyone throwing in the same posts again and again.
