Young woman gives her reasons for why she hates Pride Month. I have to agree.

Yup.
What two consenting adults do is between them, their god(s) (if they have one/any) their families (again, if they have any), their health care professionals (cuz STDs), and even their job (muh fraternization). But beyond that? I don't care.
They have pride in the way they live their life? Hooray for them. Like the citizens of the Islamic Republic of Senegal. Pride in your country? Good for you.
But expecting someone else to feel the same way? That's wrong.
I'm a conservative. I'm also an atheist. Religious people are free to think I'm a sinner going to hell, or even accept and love me. I don't care. I don't disparage their belief.
I don't know when "you do you" became "you must think and behave like me", but it grinds my gears.
Saying that it’s okay at all, like between consenting adults, will always logically lead to it being jammed into TV shows, movies, kid’s entertainment, schools, corporations, the workplace, etc.
There is no logical way to say “you are free to do what you want” and “but you must keep it hidden and everyone must pretend like it doesn’t exist”. As soon as you give them the consenting adults permission, everything else follows. First a Hollywood writer, as an adult, will consent to include a gay character in his show, and an adult gay actor will consent to play the role. Then a book publisher will consent to publish a gay book, and the corporate stores will consent to sell it. Then a company run by adults will consent to hire gay people, and gay people will consent to work there. And on and on it goes, logical step by logical step, until we arrive here: men can get pregnant, trannies read porn to kids, and almost everyone on TV is a homo.
While I don't disagree, it's on its to make it unprofitable.
There was a time people didn't go (or walked out of) movies or turned off the TV if they didn't like the content.
Liberals have a lot of conservatives beat on that point. They don't like what Trump says? Turn him off and tune him out, lol.
And if a writer, or producer, or publisher consents to a gay character? So what. We don't have to watch or buy their garbage. Freedom goes both ways. It's the American way, and it's fine.
Like, it's okay if you want to jam hooks into flesh on your back and hang from spinning pole. Your spirituality isn't the same. Same for where someone puts their nibly bits.
It's not a matter of keeping it hidden. If a guy has a husband, and introduces him as such, then I think it's gross but whatever. He thinks it's gross I have a wife. Muslims think eating bacon is bad. Oh well. We live where it's free. Freedom from being forced to avoid pork, freedom from having books burned (even the bad ones), freedom of religion and free to be without it, and freedom to bump uglies even if others find it distasteful.
I won't trade my freedom just to restrict someone else's. THAT is how you end up with the Patriot Act.
But I don't go around screaming that I'm straight and sticking flags celebrating my heterosexuality on busses and lawns. They should do the same.
You be you, let other people be them. You dint have to pay like it doesn't exist.
Its not us who needs to love you.
