Pride Month

[Grape Ape]

I finally read this thread and these harsh responses made me sad. No doubt there is degeneracy within the gay community but there are huge swaths of exceptions to that rule (normal people living normal lives and, yes raising solid children in some cases). And really - no degeneracy exists among straight people?? How about drug addiction, homelessness, alcoholism, abandonment, on and on. Just watch the local news. “Pride” may be a little over the top, I sort of agree that a person’s sexuality just is, and that’s about all there is to it. But the “pride” movement and the celebrations associated with that movement totally relate to historical shaming and discrimination, and from the comments here (on a bodybuilding site no less!), maybe that sort of “pride” remains fully relevant.

Pride Month is almost over.

Have you shown your Pride?

There is still time.

patrick bateman said it best, how can a man take pride in being sodomised by another man?

Justine's brother?

I think it's the sick culture that folks have issues with. Unhealthy and degenerate practices are celebrated. Extreme promiscuity, man-boy love, which I think is normalized in that culture but which isn't acknowledged as such, and so on. One thing I sort of agree with is that homosexuality isn't chosen and conversion therapy doesn’t work. But then again you do see that homosexuals have often been abused as kids, so that makes me wonder. Many abuse victims have testified that they went gay and it wasn’t what came ’naturally’ for them.

Kanye sings about sucking his cousin’s dick for years as a kid and that he loves him, though in that case I think the cousin was around the same age? People are saying you can't shame someone who admits that. Shaming him for calling out the heebs is nothing

I more or less agree that “celebrating degeneracy” is problematic, even offensive. More: while many (most?) people, gay or straight, have kinks and should not be ashamed with consenting adults, this is a very private thing in my book, and should not be public. Less: a bunch of drab gay guys marching single file would make for a boring parade nobody would go to (smile). And if it were subservient men parading with their heads scissor-locked between the thighs of Amazon women, there would be plenty of getbiggers in attendance (smile).

I am no heavy duty psychologist, but to me historical shaming is directly related to the FU response seen in these parades. But now that gays are more and more accepted and in the mainstream, I get the “enough already” viewpoint.

If men want to bum each other they can behind closed doors also Lesbians but what i´m against is the Buggering of young Boys. I am not saying all Homos do this as i´m sure most don´t but as we know the Left/Green politicians are trying to make sex with children "acceptable" this is my problem.

Pride Month is over now right?

[chaos]

I have been told that you should not be proud of something you cannot control. So if these guys/gals are born this way, they shouldn't be proud of it.

I'm somewhat conflicted on it. I'm as guilty as the next man for using words like 'faggot' and dismissing lame things as 'gay'. I do it partly as it's just the language that I grew up with, but I also just happen to find it amusing. Nonetheless, I might have to stand with the benders on this issue, and I believe that pride is being used in the appropriate way here.

In my opinion, 'pride' in its everyday context is a rather misplaced and silly sense of satisfaction over one's accomplishments that doesn't account for the role of circumstance and sheer luck. When taken to mean the absence of shame, however, I think it's fitting and worthy of acknowledgement.

If I were a limp-wristed bum pirate like Prime or affeman, I suspect I would be quite militant against any claim that I should be ashamed of the person I'm in love with. Similarly, I would hate to think of any hypothetical child of mine growing up embarrassed and ashamed of what they are. If pride marches give young gay people the self-confidence to live boldly and get on with life instead of sleeping in the back of an old BMW and begging for booze money while posting on Getbig, fine.
 
Admittedly, I am physically repulsed by the sight of two men kissing, but I wouldn't say they're doing anything wrong. Similarly, anal sex is disgusting to me, but it's not immoral. This reaction is biological and rooted in our somewhat flawed sense of equating the disgusting with the immoral (though I'm still battling with the wider meaning of this point).

Now, have I occasionally been pressured into penetrating the anuses of various young ladies? To my great shame, yes. It is true that I sodomized a Cambodian cover model because her fear of being left with a clown's pocket for a vagene was so severe that she asked me to smash the back door instead. And fine, if you're going to put a gun to my head, I also bummed a sex-crazed South African stunner (White) and a journalist who wanted to try 'just the tip'. There, I said it. While I rebuke those hussies for taking advantage of my impulsive nature, I do not regard my actions as departures from rectitude for which I need to repent.

Concluding, do I want to live in a society where consenting adults are demeaned for the way in which their brains have developed? No, I guess I do not. So, in principle, the gays can have their day, or week, or whatever the hell it is. In reality, I also just wish they'd self-police their events enough to keep the militant trans twats and the degenerate, hyper-sexualized exhibitionists and kiddy fiddlers away. Parade down the streets in nice suits while holding hands or something instead of making every effort to cement homosexuality as a paraphilic disorder.

Why do they need events? Why should they be proudful of what they do in the bedroom vs a regular person? What rights do gays not have that regular people do have?

I don't know. It's not something I pay attention to and if an event were running in my city, I sure as fuck would be avoiding it. I'm just not bothered by the fact that they want to have a silly parade. It hardly takes the wisdom of Herodotus to know that gays have faced significant persecution throughout history, and a lot of great people were brutalized by church and state.

Do most Western societies still wield that power? No, I don't think so, but we should not forget what life was like when they did, and we should recognize that every bit of progress we've made with regards to rights was through hard-fought battles that literally cost people their lives. If people want to march for that reason, I don't really mind.

The Pride parades have always been a spectacle.  While I disagree with what they're doing in public, it's been going on so long that most parents know what to expect and can can avoid that day if they want to.

My biggest issue is the forced corporate compliance, or the fact that corporations at least feel there will be ramifications if they don't explicitly hold some event around it.  Examples: MLB, Call of Duty, etc.
