I’ve started doing a thing and I really like where it’s going??? I wanted to draw something pride related since, of course, it is Pride month. This is all I have right now, but I will add more tomorrow or maybe later today
1.) one or both of people you see as a “straight couple” could be pan/bi/poly/ace
2.) one or both of them could be trans or non binary
3.) you could be misgendering someone
4.) They could be there to give moral support to a queer friend or family member who didn’t want to go alone.
Number four is important
5. They could be there because they support the cause stop fucking gatekeeping
6. They could be there in memory of a loved one, don’t forget Pride used to be a memorial as well as a celebration. I know a good number of straight people who go to Pride to celebrate the lives of friends and family who have died because they want to remember them as they lived, happy and joyful and surrounded by a community that loved them.
Ace pride at Oslo Pride 2016 parade, in the capitol of Norway. We didn’t know beforehand that there was an ace group, but then @withmoore and I saw the flags and joined them immediately.
There were only about 20 of us, but between us we handed out 1000 asexuality pamphlets. I handed out at least 100 of them myself.
I was also bolstered by the amount of nonbinary, trans and bisexual flags I saw, and stuff like having the Oslo police force walk in the parade in solidarity.
Beautiful weather, lovely group of people, and altogether great day!
i’m so fucking tired. we keep dying in real life and on screen, that’s how much they hate us. we are getting murdered in our safe spaces and they don’t even let the friends of the injured donate blood. they tell trans people to pee in the bushes, they tell suicidal teens who watch themselves die on screen every other week to calm down. they literally fucking kill us and make us afraid of holding hands in public and then ask why we need pride when pride is still an act of bravery, because if we’re openly ourselves we are putting ourselves in danger
Gay Pride was not born of a need to celebrate being gay, but our right to exist without persecution. So instead of wondering why there isn’t a Straight Pride movement, be thankful you don’t need one.
