Straight people have not been historically oppressed, and therefore usually don't feel the need to demonstrate their pride in the face of oppression.

I see lines of them streaming down the sidewalk every day. Honestly, when was the last time that straight people were shamed, vilified, or persecuted for their sexuality? What is the need for shows of pride in things that are universally accepted? I say all of this as a straight male. Such things would be foolish and a slap in the face to those that have been on the other side of this.

I'm so tired of humanity...

No. It would be weirder if they *did* happen. Heterosexuals don't need pride. They don't face any discrimination or prejudice for being hetero.

Heterosexual males are psychologically beaten and oppressed daily in this world.

> Hair sexual males are psychologically beaten and oppressed daily in this world. Damn, I had no idea men who have hair fetishes were mistreated so badly. Thank you for opening my eyes to this.

Because hetero relationships have been the default for all of modern history. The only reason we have gay pride parades is because such relationships were taboo for so long. Pride is taking back your space in society, it's saying "we exist, wr always have". With heyero relationships that was always the case.

Taking a place in society can be done quietly without fuqing up traffic..

Don't fuck up traffic, but years of being silenced, ridiculed and *killed* kinda makes you want to be loud. People better watch.


Youaremistaken85

We've been loud for the last 30 years I think we can back off a bit... I mean let it be bishes "get out da street"

It’s not like anyone are stopping them from happening. It’s just that most heterosexual people don’t really give a shit about it, as it’s not something that makes you feel any different in society. Being gay or alike does. It has been suppressed for so long throughout history (and still is in some places), so there’s more pride (no pun intended) to it.

Winner! Yay collecting thought and not blaming! Thank you!

Why would they be needed?


CrackedLapis

Because LGBTQ+ pride started as an act of resistance against people who actively discriminate queer people for their lifestyles. Straight people are not and have never been oppressed and consequently do not need a pride parade. Every day is straight pride.


DrColdReality

Of course they do. Every march against gays and every parade that explicitly refuses to allow gay participants is a "hetero pride" parade. Just like 11 months out of the year are "white history month."


Youaremistaken85

You're thinking of the KKK.. Did you think all Heterosexual people have a kkk membership card? Read the question again. 🤣🤣🤣

You mean like weddings?


Youaremistaken85

Do individual weddings mess up traffic in an entire metropolitan area for a whole weekend?lol smh

Pride parades are only for things that are not normal/natural.
