I’m sorry, lack of tolerance? Where I live straight people are considered normal and can live peacefully whereas LGBT people aren’t and can’t. Some get caned, jailed, humiliated on national TV. They’re considered people with disease.

Straight people don’t need a month to celebrate anything. They don’t feel unsafe because of their sexuality and they don’t need to be accepted, because they ARE accepted by people all over the globe. Pride month isn’t there to say that the LGBT community is above any other community. It has a history, a movement behind it, and it doesn’t mean any harm.. I hope you understand.

Because the truth is that hetero people DO NOT get every other day/month. It's not official in any capacity ANYWHERE and it still shows a lack of tolerance, acceptance and equality.

You don't deserve a day/month because of traits you cannot change. This is no different than saying blondes can't have their own week in a calendar year even though every other natural hair color does.

I’m sorry, have you been bullied, neglected, hated and/or disowned for being straight? Hereto people don't need a month or anything for being who they are cause society accepts them while gays and trans people are still being treated like trash. Most countries still don’t accept pride and gay marriage is still illegal in places. Do everyone a favour and keep your mouth shut.

So why are we having celebrations in the nation's that do tolerate it instead of trying to correct the inequality in the other nations?

Besides, you want LGBT to be treated equally? Stop giving them favoritism by saying hetero aren't allowed to celebrate.

My point is that normalization and equal treatment means everyone gets the same thing. Denying appreciation of one sexuality while celebrating all others is STILL discrimination. Thus, the hypocrisy. Doesn't matter if there was a prior history because all it does is cycle which group is hated.

Not really. The celebrations now are mostly about being LGBT, not having overcome issues of discrimination.

Meanwhile, I still see people being discriminatory against heteros. It's blatant hypocrisy. "We overcame discrimination so now we will discriminate!" That's all I hear when I see "X gets every other day/month of the year".
 
Pride month isn't about straight people. We already have rights, don't need to rain on the (gay) parade please
