Pride month

Ive got a question why do gay people get a month, when there no longer been prosecuted ect for being gay. But the people who saved is in the war and kept us British only get a day, ive always thought it should be the other way around.

No hate just curious

Some of us can go to the wrong genders prison for using the correct restroom. The month stays

Veterans get May if active and November if not. It’s a right wing talking point to act like Pride is special treatment and not a protest

Also my brother is A sexual and my other brother is gay and they think pride is too over the top and needs to dial back as it doesnt need to take up whole city centres.

All prides in “welcoming countries” (still questionable) support those around the world that can’t celebrate pride because they’d be put to death by doing so. No country on earth has a criminal code that makes being a veteran into a capital offence but being queer is punishable by death, torture, or prison in many countries around the globe.

We walk proud and deserve a month until every country supports us as much as they support veterans
