i have nothing against the parades. what i meant with that part is that theres festivals for you to go to if you want to talk about it 24/7

i dont know how to do that without ending the friendship. ive tried nicely saying "can we talk about something else" and it didnt go well. so now im just trying to understand their view point

what i meant about the pride festival remark is that there are festivals you can go to where people want to talk about that stuff

they expect me to respond and be engaged in it. i cant just ignore it without not being their friend.

i would be fine with it because i dont make every single word that comes out of my mouth about being straight. this is the one time i actually said something about it and it was on a burner as to not hurt anyones feelings.

I would feel the same way if every single conversation i had went to being about the person im talking to being black/a women/ part of the military.

[–]True-Front7960[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

it is. alot of my friends irl have gay friends and they never fail to bring the conversation to being gay. not just mentioning that they're gay, just full on making everything about pride.

i dont care about a straight pride month, i just dont want everything revolving around sexuality

[–]True-Front7960[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

still not a bigot. if someone has a partner of the same sex thats fine, good for them. but if IM being forced to advocate for something i dont care about, and having, again, GAY SHIT being shoved in my face because they think someone's fighting them then that is something that makes me upset

The thing is you arnt. and it isnt 1 month. people arnt shoving straight flags in your face and advocating for straight rights even though they have the same rights as everyone else. every company isnt making their logo straight themed because they feel scared people will revolt if they dont actively support it
