The Boston Straight Pride Parade Actually Happened And People Were Not Happy

It forces the ultra left to show their true colors. In reality it shouldn't be any worse for people to have pride in heterosexuals than it is for people to have pride in homosexuality. But the people protesting against the parade are saying just that. It's wrong to be proud of your heterosexual orientation.

It's something we have known they feel for quite some time but others in the outside may not have.

It's like the "it's okay to be white" thing that was circulating a few months ago. Saying such a thing meant you were a Klan member in certain circles meaning in those circles it isn't okay to be white.

Also it might provoke violence from the fringes forcing the government's hand to declare certain seditious groups as seditious.

 

Anyone who really believes those who protested the straight pride parade was because they think it's wrong to be proud to be hetero is either being disingenuous or isn't too bright.

 

Sorry! Cannot have it both ways. One sexual preference does NOT have more RIGHTS than another.
Now do I think this parade was mostly for the purpose of trolling gays? Yes!
Is it illegal? HELL NO!
Also, pride in sex preferences is stupid all together. Who cares what gives anyone a boner? Does it really need to be celebrated?

 

Who said anything about RIGHTS?

 

There is a culture war. This is war... between liberal progress ideals, and conservatives.

When you start marching through the streets celebrating sexuality, and force teaching of LGBT history in schools, and and push a narrative that is not shared or supported for a large part of the country, expect push back.

What the snowflake, everybody gets a trophy, progressive left expects is that they get to shove their agenda and ideals down everybody else's throat, protected by free speech, and then counter protest opposition. Going so far as to counter protest and have dozens of people arrested.

Here is my perspective as a libertarian. You're gay, you are attracted to people of the same sex... want a cookie? I really dont give a rat's what you do in your bedroom, but I do roll my eyes at parading down the street making sure everybody knows which way you swing. I have an issue with pushing legislation which mandates pushing sexuality on children... children gay people didn't even bear.

Look. Very few people give a good *******n what you like. But we are annoyed by the constant flamboyant requirement to constantly push it on everybody else.

If conservatives could hold up a big sign at a gay pride parade it would say "nobody gives a ****".

Stop constantly pushing on is... and you wont percieve other parades as "trolling".

 

If you don't like pride parades, don't go to pride parades. People want to show off which way they swing, whether it's sexually, politically, or nationally. They do that with parades.

Since it's unlikely that school will be separated from state any time soon, I suggest keeping your children out of the clutches of government by home schooling or finding one of the excellent alternative schools. We unschool, ourselves.

 

Except poll after poll suggests the vast majority of the population are for gay rights. Only an extreme and intolerant minority of America believe gays should be stripped of their rights. Push back all you want — we are ready for you.

Sexuality is being pushed on children? By simply teaching them that gay people exist and are no danger to the general population? That’s an interesting perspective.

While I agree pride has lost what it was originally set up to do (oppose intolerance and opposition) it is mainly just an event now.
Some of them are way overboard with adults acting like they are at Mardi Gras or on spring break but a few individuals do not represent the million of gay people that have never been to a pride event.

I will have to disagree with you, according to the most recent poll on the subject ~26% of the US population believe consensual same sex relations should be illegal. That’s quite a few people who “don’t care”. ~36% don’t believe in marriage equality. Again, another sizable proportion that “don’t care”.

Having a “straight pride event” that is largely a mockery of others is just sad.
Sure, celebrate your identity if you choose, but when you identity is how much you hate others it’s kind of pathetic.

 

No, SCOTUS legitimizing a glaring imbecility is an attack on the straight community. You're welcome.

Straight implies a mindset beyond mere sexual preference, such that the straight person doesn't just know (as everyone does), that, e.g., homosexuality is a perversion, but knows it consciously, and may be rude enough to say so.

No, SCOTUS legitimizing a glaring imbecility is an attack on the straight community, since whereas straight people think straight, the Obergefell majority took up the cause of those who think crooked. You're welcome.

So I'm somehow less threatened because I'm attacked for reasons other than my skin color?

I doubt it.

 

Any pics of these anti-gay signs?

 

I have posted them three times, feel free to google search

 

Ah, yguy disagrees with something, so it’s an attack on straights.

Called it!

 

Holy hyperbole. Could you be anymore dramatic? If you feel “attacked” because gays can marry then maybe you should just hide under your bed.

 

Misses the point. To parade sexuality down the street, and then when somebody else does the same beginning offended is the height of hypocrisy.

Let's stick with sexuality, rather than go down the road of relativism fallacies. Who was the first, and to date, held the overwhelming majority of parades purely for sexuality? LGBTQ... why? Why do they feel the need to flaunt whom they elect to be in a relationship with? Why do they think they need to celebrate that?

So pay taxes, for the school system, and pay again to not be subjected to stupidity.

The school system is no more owned by the LGBTQ community than anybody else. How about I continue to fight this culture war. Yeah, I'll stick with that.

 

And? Im for gay rights. That doesn't mean I'm ok with them parading their sexuality. I think is stupid.

In Illinois, they are teaching them the history of gay people. I don't remember having a class or being taught about heterosexual history, other than reproductive health which is science.

Why does the gay community feel this needs to be taught?

I agree, is rarely about intolerance now, because like I said most people don't care if somebody is gay. Are there a few bigots, always will be about any group.

Can you source this please. I would like to see the study.

I don't think you are getting it. You immediately create a victim.

You have to admit that a culture war is waging.

There are studies that show that children raised by a Male and a female are the most likely to succeed. So why are we pushing LGBTQ so hard? Why are we're teaching it?

I don't care of people are gay. I don't think they need to hide it. But just like I don't think people who prefer to have sex with gingers need a flippin parade, neither do gays.

 

No, yguy disagrees with glaring insanity, which, when codified as federal policy under color of law, is an attack on the straight community. You're welcome.

Yeah, you called it what it clearly is not. Go ray.

Seeing I posted nothing but stone cold fact, obviously that's an affirmative. You're welcome.

Seeing they can't and never will, that isn't possible. You're welcome.

 

Your opinion isn’t fact. Gays can’t marry? Really? That’s news to all those gays couples who are married.

 

Pride isn’t about parading sexuality to many, it’s about their struggles and their freedoms. Why is teaching that gay people exist and have existed even an issue? The same goes with reproductive health, many are upset that it is even being discussed about same sex relations — it’s necessary information for 5%-10% of the class.

Sure, https://news.gallup.com/poll/1651/gay-lesbian-rights.aspx

I completely agree a culture war is waging, but the side that started it is losing

I can post several studies that show there is very little difference between a heterosexual parents and homosexual ones with all other factors being similar. Financial security and emotional support are the big ticket items.

We are teaching it in an attempt to end the decades of intolerance that has been pushed. And because they exist.
I agree it shouldn’t be a separate class but rather integrated into everyday courses. Gay people have accomplished enough to be included equally.

Do Irish people need a parade?
What about Christians?

Pride was set up and has become tradition — it still has effects for the betterment of the community both in the states and around the world.
As long as they are not hurting or harassing anyone (and are behaving) I see no problem with them.

I don’t understand why it’s upsetting to you besides the rare debauchery but that occurs at straight events as well, it’s just dismissed.

 

The cops trolled antifa at the parade.

There really should be some kind of medal or ribbon for anti communist action.

 

Yet is occurring daily all across the globe. How do you reconcile that?

 

I think this image pretty much captures it.

 

On the contrary, it's Progressives who insist that women don't have a choice in regards to their bodies. They literally insist that women can't avoid pregnancies. Not sure whether they think women are too stupid to know how babies are made, or if they simply think women are like small children, and unable to control their urges. Either way, it reveals their true position.

 

Hopefully. A good dose of mockery is needed, at this juncture. Their sanctimonious and effete ideology is no different to any bonkers religion. Needs to be put in the spotlight and laughed at.

 

No, mocking the ideology which insists there are 76 genders (et al).

 

Yes, and? You say that like it's a bad thing.

 

First, that is illegal. Second, how would any such organisations know someone is gay?
