Educate yourselves, cishet shitlords.

quote:

1. The first Pride was a police riot. We hold Pride each summer to commemorate the Stonewall Riots of 1969.


quote:

3. Do not take pictures or Snaps of us without permission.

You’re going to see leather folks, drag performers, transgender people, non-binary people, nakedness, gender frickery and some wild outfits. We’re not here to be a spectacle for you. We’re here to celebrate with folks who are like us. Don’t post photos of us on social media as a way to be “edgy” or to show your “superior open-mindedness.” And don’t make fun of us on the internet. We don’t exist for your amusement.


quote:

4. If your thought process is “gays are okay but I don’t get the whole trans thing…” …Don’t come to Pride.
AMEN!

And, MOST importantly:

quote:

6. You’re a guest in our space, act accordingly.

People aren't taking pictures of you because you're gay, they're taking pictures of you because you look ridiculous.

We do that with straight people too.

Holy frick. "Don't take pictures of us?" Can you imagine trying to enforce that?

1. The first Pride was a police riot. We hold Pride each summer to commemorate the Stonewall Riots of 1969. At the time, most states had laws banning LGBT people from assembling in groups. Despite being illegal, the mob opened LGBT bars to profit off of the open discrimination of our community. The bars were the only safe space for LGBT people and were frequently raided by police officers looking for bribes. Tired of harassment and discrimination, the patrons of The Stonewall protested and began a series of actions that turned into several days of riots. At its peak, more than 1,000 people took to the streets of Greenwich Village in one of the first organized displays of LGBT protest. The mostly transgender patrons of color at The Stonewall are credited with starting the LGBT civil rights movement.

Most of these fringe groups howl about wanting equality when in reality they're looking for preferential treatment.
