Fyre Festival 3? They didn't even have 2 yet
It sounds like the most cringe thing ever. So yeah, let them do it, I wanna see it (mostly to point and laugh).
He, more like hetero sausage fest
Ayooo
my wife came up with this
is it just a bunch of white guys standing around talking about how potato's are neat
Honestly, if done without any hate to LGBTQ+, I'm all for it. We need a nice hetero representation, and hetero relationships are beautiful. This does include trans people forming hetero couples, and hetero-demi-/asexuals, and many more, so it can even intersect with LGBTQ+ in some cases.
All relationships and sexualities are beautiful, and hetero ones are no exception.
But I doubt it'll be done this way.
I want you to say the same thing about black history month so you can understand how ridiculous this is.
Most likely no one shows up.
Or worse, the intended demo shows up
id be ok with it as long as they don't push it in my face
I don't want to walk past and see them holding hands or anything
Yeah, I'd say, if hetero people need an excuse to have fun and celebrate something, I'm all for it. But I have a sneaky suspicion that this is going just going to be used as a hatefest towards LGBTQ+ people instead. I would love to be proven wrong but I have a feeling that straight cis people who are open minded and accepting and not bigots, aren't the ones who feel the need to go "what about straight pride / international men's day?" whenever anyone else gets a bit of attention.
I'm cis-het and fully intend to go to the pride parade with friends in a different state. It's going to be a great time! Idk why the largest groups feel like they need extra special attention.
I don't think they do it for attention tbh
On the other hand, the concerns themselves are real, and if they will be addressed in a way positive to everyone else, this will be great!
So, we'll see. Under current administration, the risks for it derailing into the hate fest are quite high, but fingers crossed.
This sounds like something a group of Incels would plan to get their buttocks to accidentally touch the buttocks of another young man.
And then like 3 people show up, because of course. They're incels. They were never going to go anywhere.
"No hate at all, it's a love thing."
But also LGTBQ+ people are "disgusting and criminal".
This restaurant owner sure sounds Proud.
I mean, ok. Pride isn't exclusionary. Most gay people have straight parents, siblings, friends and so on. If you feel the need to celebrate being straight, that's cool. If you think you're a victim because you are straight then I might suggest some therapy.
I'm a straight dude and would love to socially meet more hetero women... but this sounds like the lamest and (ironically) gayest event I've ever heard of. Guaranteed it's going to be filled with ugly, un-fun, angry people counter-protesting. You know the type, critically concerned with what the fuck other consenting adults do...?
