Bisexual dudes celebrating gay pride smirking off camera
They always seem to forget about us
Genius
“Straight pride” isn’t a thing. It’s purely a reactionary response to gay pride.
The point of gay pride is for gay people to show that they’re not afraid to be who they are in the face of systematic discrimination. It is specifically countering the culture of gay shame that had been the norm in the past. Straight people are already the overwhelming majority and have never been oppressed for their sexual orientation. There’s was never any shame associated with it so it makes no sense to proclaim that you’re “proud” to be straight.
It’s like someone who finished a marathon expressing their pride for their accomplishment, and some loser who has to make everything about themselves says “well I sat on my ass all day and I deserve to be proud of that too!”
The issue is not that it’s not okay to be proud of being straight, you’re welcome to feel pride all you want. The issue is when you but into someone else’s moment and make it about yourself.

Minor disagreement. I’m a straight dude who celebrates gay pride, and that usually comes off as a green flag to women considering sleeping with me
