Social PRIDE events where you live?

I'm in the Middle East for work, so no there are zero events and zero backlash about that .

Can I ask what line of work? The ME scares me a wee bit.
Obviously no need to respond with me being a Nosey Parker.

I believe Toronto has the largest Pride celebration in the world (at least it did at one point).

Outside of BLM protesting the event a couple of years ago, I don't think there has been any sort of material opposition. It has been a huge money maker and tourist attraction for the city. I know a lot of people (who are heterosexual) that go simply because they consider it fun.

I haven't been, but not because I have any objection to the LGBTQ community. I just don't like overly crowded spaces and parades in general.

I'm pretty sure the largest one is in São Paulo and it has been for a long time. Toronto may be the largest on north america.
São Paulo one is huge because:
1- huge metropolitan area population (23M)
2- it's like a carnival out of season and brazilians always want an excuse to drink and dance outside, so a lot of no lgbt people shows up too

I'm in cyber intel/other things cyber for an agency of the us gov. Eh depends where you go in ME, Dubai is nice but they won't be celebrating the month. But you probably would like it there, just know where you're at.

We have the largest gay festival in the world in california, every year, it's not classified as a gay parade, however it's got the most amount of sexual energy you'll see outside of a diddy party, hollywood halloween parade. It's like a goddamn zoo, it's so damn packed and it's a huge portion of the gay crowd, so many that even bonafide gay events pale in comparison.

Have you seen any violence or backlash? Just let it play out with no regard?

I'm selling some wares at my local small town PRIDE event at the end of the month and people are already planning a protest even though it's in a general not kid park, and not parading the streets.

I'm not LGBTQ myself but a lot of what I'm selling is. Should I worry? Husband's going to be with me so physically I'm okay, my main worry is my mouth if someone says something hateful.

Enjoy selling your dildos and helping to promote moral degeneracy.

Vancouver teacher suspended after pup fetish identity, adult content discovered online

"The issue is their stigma, their bias," said Daniel Gore, who feels he must hide his pup identity because he works as a high school teacher

Looks like this dude might have had a little too much pride.

I am an ally, but I am absolutely certain as a teacher he would have had a morality clause in his contract. Being a teacher who is moonlighting as an amateur porn/pup kink whatever the fuck creator absolutely is not allowed. This also applies to the straight hot white teachers who decide they wanna do onlyfans. The dude cannot claim discrimination or stigma/bias.
 
it's dumb to be proud of something you have no control over. gay pride, national pride, white pride, pride of lions. it's all so fucking pointless. People of good character should be proud. people who accomplish great things should be proud. not every asshole should be proud of every fucking category they fall under.

Sorry, should this be in Mayberry? I put it here because anything PRIDE related ends up in backlash and people calling me a word that we don't say here.

PRIDE events used to be discussed in the heavies, along with UFC events. Times have changed!
 
I live in downstate NY. Almost every town in the burbs outside of NYC is doing something. Never any violence or backlash. Honestly, there are so many we get tired of it. It's constant. I think it should be a Day instead of a month, like Veterans Day or Memorial Day, or 4th of July. Let them all party one day and let the rest of us avoid traffic and closed streets and assless chaps for the rest of the year lol. Or do one big one instead of the dozens we have. This doesn't even include NYC that will have dozens of events as well. There are never any issues.

You're an ally to people who have beastiality fantasies ? That's essentially what this fucking creep is into. Equating wanting to fuck a dog with being gay is disgusting and you aren't a good person for doing so.

This guy was rightfully punished and shouldn't be around kids.
 
i very much appreciate all of the Pride FC links in this thread. thats my Pride month!

to answer the thread question, i have never gone to a Pride parade and i probably never will. im not gay, and as a straight white male i am basically the antithesis of who they want at their parade. i just view it all as so peacock-y and attention whoring. plus not to mention the blatant corporate whoring and pandering. this corporation is cool because they made their logo a rainbow flag, nevermind the fact that they produce chemical weapons used liberally in developing countries.

the people at those parades who dress more low key and casual are the ones that should be at the forefront. not the weirdo fuck with 50 dildos glued to his costume. i love that pic from the 1970 parade; i even see a few crossdressers in it but no one is obnoxious looking.
