lock Your personal venting space.

Okay, just before you read this, I'm not trying to be rude or anything. Just explaining stuff.
There is no religion, at least that I know of, that states being straight is an abomination. There is no such thing, as 'coming out' as straight. If you are straight, you rarely have reason to hide. The word 'straight' is not tossed around as an insult. It's not something people will single you out for, disown their child for, break relationships for. Do you realize, that at the end of every almost every LGBTQ+ parade, there are at least a couple of protesters screaming about the sins and wrongness of having a sexuality that's different from the norm?
It's pride month. People are celebrating part of their identity, not only accepting others but also themselves. The parade represents the community and their pride of it. Because there are many people out there who spit upon such. A pride parade probably would not be as common, nor necessary, if people weren't shunned and taught that not being straight was a sin.
Of course, you have a point. You're allowed to state your opinion. It's not illegal to proudly say you're straight. But people aren't bullying you for your sexuality, are they? The parade represents and symbolizes an idea of acceptance, that is needed for the community.

i also wanna add that 'straight pride' is just a thinly veiled cover for homophobia and also the same ppl behind it are also part of white supremacist circles. there may be nothing wrong with being straight, but there's no reason to have a parade for it because it was never taken away from you

I’m sorry. My friend just flipping posted that on my phone when I have it to her for a sec.

(Ok but straight people have had rights since they have existed. Gay people have had rights for like less than 50 years. It's sort of about the struggle.)

Np EllieGrace. (Weird moment here do I call you Ellie or Grace?)

Ellie or if you want to be formal Ellie Grace or if you want to be way too formal , call me Ellison.

I’m gonna go talk to my friend about this. Sorry for this.

Ellie or if you want to be formal Ellie Grace or if you want to be way too formal , call me Ellison.

uHH… okay then, Gracie ;))

Once again, she's entitled to her opinion.

That’s a new nickname. I did not know I could get more nicknames. I have a lot of weird nicknames.

Ok I'm definitely calling you Gracie then. :)

It’s better than, let me quote, “Ellison the Ellie Jelly Belly Belle of Grace”

suddenly finds self in a very huge conflict of whether or not to use that name

Oh wait! Don’t forget “Ellie fluffy bunny of holy violence Grace”

Mm I think I'll call ya Ellie Jelly Belly of Gracie.
Gracie for short.

Works for me

Night y’all! insert my Texas accent here

Okay don't get me wrong here I agree with everything that ya'll said here, but… I know people who actually use 'straight' as an insult. One of my best friends has another group of friends at this LGBTQ+ hangout she goes to, and they basicly think that someone who is straight is an awful jerk even though they have never met them. Both they and my friend (when she was mad at me) have called me and other people 'heterojävel' (only good translation I can find is 'hetero-devil') even though they didn't even know me or the people they said it to. I had done nothing to insult any of them and neither had the others. And about religion? I'm religious and I support LGBTQ+. It isn't and shouldn't be seen as impossible.

Yo no matter what it's not good to hate or discriminate upon people for things they can't control, or the way they were born. It's unacceptable and while I will respect people with more logical opinions on the matter, I refuse to accept blind hate or prejudice.
(This isn't targeted at anyone in particular.)

Y'all I got pink eye this morning and I'm pissed. That's why I changed my username again

Ok I just gotta say that having a wedding in Halloween might be the coolest idea ever.
