Jesus Christ I've only just learned of "Pride Month" they really are taking over everything now.. You just can't get away from it. No problem with the gays or lezies but I don't need to hear of it every single day, man

And you’ll hear about Pride Month whether you like it or not.
I do - and I’m a straight man - so what’s your excuse, Shame Lee…?!

That little plot point is so mandatory that among the many sins of the film "Patch Adams" it was deemed necessary to rewrite the real life *male* doctor Carin was loosely based on as a woman and try to messily bludgeon sexual tension in between her and the titular Adams. And even then the lack of immediate romance had to be explained away with straw feminism and the one backstory women are allowed to have to excuse them (temporarily) from having any purpose in life other than finding a man. Because apparently it's impossible to contextualize emotionally significant interaction or the general motivation of any human being without a penis in a vagina somewhere and likewise there's no drama in finding out your friend was murdered unless you wanted in their pants.
So much wrong with that movie and the cruel unrecognizable joke it made of a man's entire body of work but honestly this takes the cake. It's fucking incel logic and that's not an accusation to make casually.
Oh reallay! Then you might just have to pull your head out of the sand - or more likely somewhere else. Pride Month isn’t every day, it’s only one month a year, in which you hear about it less than about Christmas in December.
But join the ranks of the whingers… they’re here, they’re queer and they aren’t going anywhere.
This argument is stupid on so many fronts, but the worst thing for me is the implicit entitlement: “I have the right to not hear from an entire group of people because I find them icky”. That’s what it ultimately boils down too, whether it is this kind of canard or “hidden” behind “think of the children” rhetoric. No, you don’t. If this is not a perfect example of thinking one has some special privileges in society, I don’t know what is.
Confused?
