Homersexual (spelt wrong for cencorship reasons) Pride

I dont get it i have nothing against people being gay or homosexual what ever one suits you. One thing which bugs me are these gay pride events not the people the events if we had a straight or hetrosexual events there would be a uproar about it what do you all think?

Do you feel as if there needs to be a heterosexual pride event?

why not i guess, you go have a parade if you want

its principle though of how society is messed up does no one eles get this shoemen22

Wut? Heterosexuals are allowed to have their own event, it's just that there would be no point in having one. :?

im going on the idea that i live in england and it is legal for them to get married all across this country so why do they still need the events its legal for both here but they still have themshoemen22

It's only fair after all the prejudice they've facedtofu-lion91

I'm sure heterosexuals could organise a march if they wanted, it's just because the homosexual community didn't have that freedom for quite a long time.

Homosexual pride, is an answer of the homosexuals to the suppression they face. In this way they (admittedly in a flaunting and taunting manner) rub it in the heterosexuals face that they willl be who they are no matter what the world thinks of them.

Its just a reaction.

Heterosexuals have no reason to have a "straight pride" parade as they (as a sexual orientation) never faced suppression. Period.

I dont know any straight people which are ashamed but at the same time all of my friends which are gay dont give a S**T what other people think and are happy aswell shoemen22

By what most people are saying here maybe i just feel alittle diffrent but atleast we all dont mind them being them but should there be ginger pride events,shoemen22

The point remains though that the cause behind a gay pride parade will never be equated with the (actually inexistant) cause behind any of the pride parades you mentioned.

Why not just have a all-sexual pride parade, everyone can join.

And the reason would be taunting because there would be no idea of a heterosexual pride parade, had there not been a gay pride parade before that.

Add also the fact that like I said heterosexuals have no cause and you get the picture.

In summary, organising a straight pride parade just to react to the gay pride parades because they are not very likable is a bad reason.

It's juvenile, sure. But having a parade just because you are gay or if you are a lesbian seems like a really shallow reason.

" I take it in teh pooper! :D YAY!" what they're celebrating.

The whole reason a pride parade is to flaunt it in peoples faces.

I dont get it i have nothing against people being gay or homosexual what ever one suits you. One thing which bugs me are these gay pride events not the people the events if we had a straight or hetrosexual events there would be a uproar about it what do you all think?

there is no need for gay parades...it just reinforces bad stereotypesweezyfb

I agree with a comment on just what your sexualitily is. is not a reason to have a pride eventshoemen22

Its not about merely to state your sexuality. But its a way of reacting to the social stigma that homosexuality bears for centuries.

If you are talking about the flamboyant stereotype...

...I have seen a gay pride parade here in Athens and all the people participating in it where quite the normal guys and girls. The only "different" you'd find on them would be edgy clothing. And still only a few people were like that.

OK. So the homos are suppressed, mocked, and shunned by the society in which they live. In order to rebel, they host parades to prove that it's nothing to be ashamed of, and to flaunt it and taunt their cruel torturers. It is also used to help closet gays in coming out.

They may have been wrongfully persecuted, and the parade signifies that they are not going to tolerate such treatment. But it's still just a celebration based on their sexual preference, a preference that oddly enough people still fear.

Being from Northern Ireland, how do you feel about the Orange walks or "parades" where protestants march through the streets of NI, straight through historically Catholic areas? jimmyjammer69

The reaction is similar to this: your girlfriend dumps you, and you (after a lot of struggle to deal with it) try to get over it and for many reasons you want to sing a song called "I am through with you baby". Can you see the analogy?

You singing this song helps you move on and also (if you call her to say it in her face) you make sure your girlfriend gets the message and she will stop thinking as if you were in the wrong.

Thats the closest analogy I could find. :/

I really hate stupid questions like this... Just like the question... Why is there a black history month?

[QUOTE="shoemen22"] yeah but not everyone have to go with what you have to sayshoemen22

I'll go the other way.

Can you rephrase your whole position because quite frankly it made little sense.
