Description

As of Oct. 23, 2010, comments have been disabled, because it has once again devolved into the same old "YOU'RE A STUPID MEANIEHAD!" and "YEAH, BRO!", and it's getting repetitive to have a dozen comments I've heard a million times before every single time I sign in. Trust me, you're not going to bring anything new to the table.

Either +fav it or move on.


To clarify: This isn't about feeling good about who you are. It's Pride, capital-P Pride, as in the context of Gay Pride, which is having small-P pride when society tells you that you're not supposed to be happy with who you are. It's okay to be happy with who you are, but think about it: if someone says "White Pride!" you're probably going to think of them as a racist idiot.
That's what this is about.

Original Artist's Comments:
Get back to me when you've been a second-class citizen because you're straight.
Get back to me when you've not been allowed to marry because you're straight.
Get back to me when you've been treated as sub-human because you're straight.
Get back to me when, by default, the media and everyone around you assumes that you're gay.
Get back to me when people say that your sexuality is not valid because you are straight.
Get back to me when people can scream "fucking breeder!" at you in the street because you dared to hold hands with the one you love.
Get back to me when countries and cultures decide that being straight is a crime punishable by death.

Get back to me when you can do that.
Until then?
Fuck your straight pride, because you don't need to have Pride. You've never had to fight because you are straight.

It's like a child asking their parents why they have a Mother's day and a Father's day, but no Children's Day, and his parents say that it's because every day is children's day.

You don't need to remind people that you have rights.
You don't need to fight to be treated like a human being.

Are you so fucking threatened by us being treated like real people that you see our pride that you have to take that pride away by trying to turn it into "oh, straight people have rights too!"? Sorry, nobody ever forgot that. Sorry, straight people aren't under-represented in the media.
Is it that fucking threatening that the instant we start getting rights, you start feeling like, because we might be equals, you start whining?
