This pride bs is ridiculous. Human from more than 1000s of years are straight men and women. Only in the latest decades people started to think that they are not in the correct body. Get yourself together and behave as you were created... this is so wrong...

Hmm you seem conflicted in your argument, being gay is one thing, believing you should have been born a man or women instead of the sex you were born is something totally different urging IMO on mental illness. Like all this gender neutral BS...
 
Good for you.... I feel resolved now that I know Baldilocks doesn’t hate me. Get a grip

This is why rational people do not like Liberals. They are tolerant only until you disagree with them. Then they need their safe spaces.

Yeah, human rights and animal rights... combined! Way too much for most people to handle...

Human rights? So, I take it you're pro-life then? If not, you can't even begin to talk about human rights.
 
I'd like to see Armed Forces Appreciation Month; also I'd like to see Emergency Services Appreciation Month.
Whenever I take a road trip through the States I see billboards, posters, bumper stickers, flags, etc everywhere honouring and celebrating the armed forces. From an non-American perspective, every month appears to be Armed Forces Month down there.
 
Do you disagree with people with blue eyes?
I'm a Christian and I'm more offended by the prideful behavior than I am about their lifestyle. Pride isn't a good trait. Be it proud about your foot size, hair color, skin color (any color) or weight, it's annoying to tell everyone about how PROUD you are of something you have no control over for no reason. Imagine walking around touting how awesome you are for having longer second toes than your big toes? It's obnoxious AF and nobody likes it. I want a flag for my rhythmic movement disorder! I demand it... I was made fun of at camps because of my rocking at night. People NEED to know how proud I am of my RMD....

Unbelievable that phrases like this are allowed to be uttered without much consequence. I would urge all people to “get themselves together and behave as they were created” which is in the name of love, not hate. What is “so wrong” is mindsets like these.

His comment is stupid and scientifically wrong but for the sake of freedom of expression we should not ban people because they say something that make others feel uncomfortable.

How many people were killed over big toes?

Thanks for assuming my politics! I don’t need validation from someone else on how I live my life
 
Ah, very nice then. Although that month doesn’t really get the daily recognition it deserves.
[doublepost=1561996327][/doublepost]
Does it have to be? I’m pointing out things that are worthy of more appreciation than they currently receive. That’s all.
And the sad part?
People don't know that!
Yet, the pride month is covered so much more in the new/media, or even here.

Nobody is getting away with murder by killing gays. No law enforcement is winking at hate towards gays like they are winking at AntiFa in Portland. It's 2019. Get out of here with your 1989 era talking points.
 
Such bravery in this completely socially accepted lifestyle....

We now celebrate same sex pride as if it's completely rare and nobody knows what it is or that it's a thing needing to be made aware. I don't need to see a parade of a rainbow flag to accept the idea of two same sex people holding hands at my local mall. At what point is this celebration given the same treatment as biracial couples?
I don't see Pride month going away. I see it evolving into something more like Mardi Gras/Carnivale: A month of celebration that everyone can enjoy, without having to be a part of the community.

Just like Christmas, there will be conflict between those who think we should drop the whole LGBTQ+ aspect of it and those who wish it would get back to being "pure" like they remember when they were younger.

I’m confused, perhaps I overlooked it, but where did that user mention they were of any political affiliation. Or are you just assuming because you’ve been taught in your echo chamber that if someone disagrees with you then they are “Part of the main stream, librulll media that’s all snowflakes and safe spaces”? If you only see conservative and liberal, then you hardly see anything in life.

I get what you're saying but I think you missed my point.

I was challenging the idea that someone can "disagree with homosexuality" as if it is a choice someone is making any more than being born with blue or green or brown eyes is a choice.

I DISAGREE WITH GRAVITY!
 
when is straight month? JK
When you come from a country such as mine where you can easily lose your job, stoned, maimed with a machete, or tied to a car bumper, dragged for miles to your death then shot on top of it, constantly threatened to leave your community, potential of losing family, exiled from your community, no right to hold hands or even show discrete affection - then you can have straight pride.
 
Cant help but wonder why a man in such a powerful and protected position as Tim Cook, only publicly came out as gay in late 2014?
Maybe he wanted to wait until he was CEO, so that he wouldn't be as likely to get thrown off a building for being gay, like they do in the Middle East and communist countries.

Man, why are people always butthurt that Apple is an ultra-liberal company? All your hard earned money is going to support liberals and their lifestyles. Deal with it. Oh and pride is a thing because these people are stigmatized worldwide, as noted in these comments.

Wait??? You are saying it is okay but annoying to be proud of foot size, hair color or skin color all things you are born with and can not change but not sexual preference, also something you are born with because that is just going to far?
