Probably because many Straight White Males™ want EVERYTHING to cater to them. They can't handle the thought that things like Pride month, Black History month and International Women's day exist. They feel like their rights are being infringed upon if everything doesn't cater specifically to them.

I hoped that things in this world would get better in 2019. Clearly we went backwards.

I agree with the message above, but disagree with saying it's "The White Male" that is the only one to blame. It's not JUST white males who have issues with those movements.

No reason to bring TS into this. She's only jumping on the bandwagon for the $$.

Gay Pride events nowadays, have become a celebration ie a party. Most often, a dance party. All dance parties - from every single era, was always about sexuality, and trying to attract a partner (whether of the same, or opposite sex). Besides, soooo many events / parades are sexualised. Cheerleaders are the most in-your-face blatantly-near-pornographic example. They're at sporting events, and parades of all kinds. So, if watching half-naked women jump up and down, all bouncy and doing crotch-displaying air kicks to celebrate men is ok for a "family" event.... people dancing in rainbow clothes is just as ok. Only difference is: who is being catered to: straight men (with the bouncy female cheerleaders), or not....

I don't really see the problem Pride getting more of a 'dance party'. It's a party too, to see your friends and other people like you. It's a safe space to use your most fierce attire. After all, the straights are strangely obsessed to the queer sex anyway so I personally try to own it every year

Well then, don't go to Pride Month events with your children?

You're absolutely right Pseudo Puppy, the Gay Pride event has become a dance party with schlongs and boobs hanging out everywhere trying to attract a partner. That's NOT what the actual message intended was from the beginning. It was to inform others that people of the LGBT community did not have the same rights as heterosexuals. I'm not personally a fan of cheerleaders outfits but the difference is they are nowhere near as pornographic as the Pride parades I've seen. Yael, I wouldn't, sadly.

Actually, despite the fact that women and LGBTQ+ people are treated as actual human beings now, straight men still have the most rights and opportunities.

Im litterally laughing right now at your stupidity
