Homophobia is also completely irrational so. That really sucks
Hugs you have my sympathy. All these homophobic family members need to get a grip and actually think about something instead of just making snap decisions

It’s cool, I didn’t know of it until recently either xD
It’s a handy term though. I also like the phrase: ‘Everyday is straight pride day, so shut up with your nonsense’

Uhmm, that’s really not a good idea, I think everyone should know why it’s not a good idea… It’s sad people don’t even realize it’s a problem

Thank you. 
I hate homophobia too. There’s so much in the black community, you wouldn’t understand…

Considering I have a half-black girlfriend, I’m the closest a white dude can get I imagine.
I can empathise at least

That’s actually a good one, I will definitely use that the next time someone asks me why a pride is actually needed, believe it or not but I get asked that a lot and it annoys me so much

I’m bisexual and I feel like I need to tell my story, year 8 was a rough time for me
Summary
I told a friend of mine that I was bi, a boy filmed me saying it and showed a bunch of other people. They all asked me about it and I didn’t deny it. Gradually people started to just get meaner and they really used to make fun of me. They called me a pervert in the changing rooms. It lasted so long. So eventually I reported this one girl who had taken it as far as to laugh in my face, then I started telling people that I was straight and I only thought I was bi because I think some women are attractive but not in a sexual way. The attention was drawn off me, but I’m pretty much out to everyone now except my family.

I mean you shouldn’t need to answer this stuff anymore, but hey. What can you do.
Here’s the response to someone who says ‘why can’t straight people have pride too?’
“Come back and talk to me when someone in a position of power, like a US PRESIDENT tells you you can’t have pride in your sexuality or identity”

I will never understand why people think it’s ok to use gay as an insult.
And it’s mostly guys too. Toxic masculinity, yeah?

I mean here’s the thing, I don’t actually hate breeders, my whole family is straight (There’s still room for my sister she’s only 14, we’ll know soon), but I mean.
They get so defensive, it’s funny to make fun

This is what I told them:
“I personally cannot agree with this as the main reason we have a pride parade/pride month is that it’s to help raise awareness of LGBT+ but also to try and gain support so that we feel more comfortable being ourselves as LGBT+ isn’t a widely accepted thing but being straight is widely accepted. I’m not saying that being straight is a bad thing and is perfectly okay to be happy that you are straight but for me personally, the whole straight pride parade felt like a massive middle finger to the LGBT+ community and was in a way upsetting for me. I know I cannot speak for the whole community but I can’t be the only one who feels that way.”
After that, they were saying that some LGBT+ people don’t accept heterosexuality and say offensive things to them and that I was not being supportive of straight people.
Bear in mind that the majority of the people who said this have called me the f word and made fun of me potentially having autism (I’m yet to be tested) and of my OCD.

Good story time tho, I find it actually really nice when people are genuinely interested in learning about sexuality or want to ask me questions like how I figured I was pansexual… I feel like I helped multiple people with their sexuality and also accepting it yourself when they asked me that, just by having an honest and open conversation about it…
