What is your opinion on the idea of a Heterosexual Pride Day?

Asked by NerdyKeith (5489points) June 29th, 2016

As it happens this was a trending hashtag on Twitter today. Personally my feelings on this are that I think its pretty childish. The entire point of Gay Pride is to aknowledge the struggles of oppression the LGBT have overcome and celebrate our progression in terms of equality. Or to put it another way

Now I’m not discrediting any struggles heterosexuals have gone through regarding poverty, racism, sexism etc. But there are no issues that are the root cause of them being heterosexual.

Honestly this idea of a straight pride is downright ignorant and ill informed to what any sort of pride day is supposed to be about.
