Are you taking part in any LGBTQ events for pride month?

average hero · 10-06-2019 10:30pm

Straight white male here.

Not specifically doing anything for it and I don't like big public gatherings like Paddy's Day or anything so that's not my gig anyway. I am a passively tolerant bloke with friends from all over the spectrum so I don't feel the need to 'prove' any tolerance. If there is a 5-a-side or other sponsored event for it I may take part alright.

I wonder how parts of the LGBTQI+ community feel about corporate sponsors co-opting the pride movement for their corporate ends.Is it positive or cynical? Anyways - best of luck to those who it affects.

This is a big milestone for gay pride this year as it marks the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots in New York, when the modern LGBT rights movement was born.

In June 1969, the patrons of the Stonewall Inn, mourning the death of Judy Garland, resisted the routine police raids and harassment and rioted for 3 days and nights. The event caught worldwide media attention and the following year, 1970, the first gay pride march was held in New York.

During the 1970s pride events spread throughout the Western world and Dublin has its first pride march in 1983 in reaction to the verdict of the trial of the killers of Declan Flynn, a gay man who was murdered in Fairview Park.

Personally, I’ll be out of the country for the Dublin pride march and party (it’s a big piss up anyway which I avoid) but I’ve marched in Pride events before and it’s important to mark Pride to show how far we have come, to remember where we came from, out of the shadows and our closets, and to show solidarity with LGBT people in intolerant and oppressive regimes around the world.

No, I've no interest in the subject or the events. I generally dislike being around groups of people.

Why do the LGBTQ community regularly show such strong support for Islam and Muslim groups. Even though Islamic views on homosexuality range from "its sinful" on the moderate scale to "hang them from buildings" on the radical scale.

I genuinely don't understand it.

Straight people don't get beaten up for being straight, they can hold hands walking down the street unlike gay people.

If a straight pride happened, it'll be filled with male "masculine offended" marchers which in irony would like a gay march

(perhaps they finally show their sensitive side! :pac:)

SirGerryAdams · 10-06-2019 11:05pm

No I will be avoiding everything related to pride. I treat gays like every other person I meet. I will not put gays on a pedestal and treat them like they're different to straight people. I also don't support corps using gay people as a tool to make money. Shame on them.

If gay people are bullied, attacked etc, the law is there to protect them. We have voted for marriage equality. Ireland is a place where gays are widely accepted as equal and I think it's absolutely stupid that you'd need to have a parade for people to know gays are supported.

Racism exists in the gaa at underage levels...why aren't the GAA doing a black pride march for them?

Irish people were victims of racism in the UK and still are yet I don't see any Irish Pride marches there?

I know gay lads who are dead sound and are just like everyone else. Then I see a lot of gay lads acting like being gay is an identity....like Daffyd from Little Britain.

“Pride month” is nothing more than the promotion of a particular political viewpoint, fcukall to do with being lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender. As I’ve told you before, I used to be involved in organising Pride parades, but when I didn’t agree with their politics any more, I no longer wanted to be involved.

As it happens, I actually don’t know that many people who have any interest in political rallying masquerading as a Pride event these days, it’s just another tacky effort to sell tacky merch like flegs and feather boas to people who are into that sort of thing. I wouldn’t assume that people by virtue of their sex, sexual orientation or gender share a hive mind, any more than I would assume people who are religious are all bigots. As your post demonstrates there are many ways in which people are bigots.

Seven colours in the rainbow btw, which is why the rainbow was chosen as a symbol of the political movement - meant to imply acceptance of all people, not just those of a certain political bent.

And the vast majority that go around beating up gays are Muslims guess what the same people that support pride will support Muslim immigration into the west sort of ironic. All ii am saying is homosexuality should be accepted but not promoted or embraced. Some people don't agree with it and their perfectly entitled to that as long as they hurt anyone.

The whole straight pride idea was a piss take and a joke that some lefties took offence to.

Not sure what you on about on the political front but i'd agree that there is uneasy tension within the community about corporates taking over Pride full of non-LGBT marchers(while ignoring disabled access) plus the recently separate Trans Pride to get away from the corporate takeover.

I show my support to my gay friends and family by treating them just like my straight friends and family. And I don’t celebrate anyone’s sexuality or their right to love, marry or shag whoever they want. Not my business, either way. So no, I won’t be participating.

I know things have come a long way since the dark days (and they were very dark) but I understand a celebration of how far things have come, and how hard people worked to make it so.

I don’t believe for a minute you’re uncertain as to what I’m on about on the political front when you’ve always been quite vocal about your distaste for people who are conservative or religious, ignoring of course the fact that being LGBT, conservative or religious are not mutually exclusive concepts, As demonstrated to you before by the example of Caitlyn Jenner who some people will try their best to exclude from these types of events and still have the balls to call themselves a “community”.

The fact is that without the aid of corporate sponsorship, Pride wouldn’t have become the social event on the Hallmark Calendar that it is now, so understandably that is going to cause conflict between people who wish to remain marginalised and lament the idea that “society doesn’t accept them”, and those people who aren’t marginalised “enough” to be part of “the movement” any more. And that’s why Trans Pride has evolved, not to get away from any corporate sponsorship, but rather to promote their own victimhood, because the Pride movement has become “too mainstream” for them.

I also agree that Pride has got way too corporatised and commercial and these big bucks companies ”sponsoring” Pride is all about shameless promotion, advertising and money making. There are always strings attached.

This is a problem common to most big Pride events worldwide nowadays, but in the early days, when Pride marches were real protests against discrimination, intolerance and criminalisation, very very few companies wanted to be in any way associated with the gay rights movement.

Oh Jack, where have our hugs gone?

Conservatives/religious or just conservative religious people have never accepted Pride due to their Biblical obsession despite them breaking other rules of their devout book!

As for Caitlyn who you brought up, she came from a super rich background which the vast majority of trans people have no relation to, that person does not represent the trans community. As you know the vast majority of the trans community still suffer discrimination in our own country. As to the Trans Pride which is not victimhood as you put it despite your laughable past "thorough" knowledge of their issues, you're completely wrong. They need to demonstrate for their needs and recently had a meeting with our beloved health minister, but of course you didn't know that as you don't give a hoot about trans people.

Absolute nonsense. You’re speaking as though every religious/conservative person is of the same mindset when the reality is that they aren’t. Just like your faulty assumptions about people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender that they are all of the same mindset as yourself. They’re evidently not. That’s why Pride has been overtaken by, and become a vehicle for, people who share your political beliefs, and less of a movement that people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender can identify with - because they simply have nothing in common any more with what Pride has become.

As for Caitlyn who you brought up, she came from a super rich background which the vast majority of trans people have no relation to, that person does not represent the trans community. As you know the vast majority of the trans community still suffer discrimination in our own country.

Actually, as much as you hate to acknowledge her, she is transgender, and she is one of the most high profile representatives of people who are transgender, along with a whole host of celebrities. Because as I have also pointed out to you before - conditions such as gender dysphoria don’t give a shìte for a persons politics. They’re a naturally occurring phenomenon in humans, as demonstrated among the Hijra people of India who don’t share Western cultural conceptions of gender and sexuality.

I don’t agree with you either that the vast majority of people who are transgender suffer discrimination in our own country. Everyone experiences discrimination of one form or another on a daily basis, and I don’t agree for a minute that people who are transgender experience any greater discrimination than anyone else in Irish society. If you’d said the vast majority of members of the traveller community I might have agreed you had a point, but the vast majority of people who are transgender? No.

They need to demonstrate for their needs and recently had a meeting with our beloved health minister, but of course you didn't know that as you don't give a hoot about trans people.

That’s exactly what it is - some people believe they are even greater victims than mainstream Pride will acknowledge, and so they set up their own little parade. They’re the MGTOW of the Pride movement. I do care about people btw, I just don’t care for your politics.

How to qualify as representative of people who are transgender- be transgender.

She fits the bill.

I’m not sure which offended men you’re referring to as delicate offended men - transgender men or transphobic men? Either way it’s still not comparable to the discrimination faced by the traveller community in Irish society, and to claim that you face anything like the same discrimination they face is just laughable.

Are you taking part in any LGBTQ events for pride month?
