    Honestly, if done without any hate to LGBTQ+, I’m all for it. We need a nice hetero representation, and hetero relationships are beautiful. This does include trans people forming hetero couples, and hetero-demi-/asexuals, and many more, so it can even intersect with LGBTQ+ in some cases.

    All relationships and sexualities are beautiful, and hetero ones are no exception.

    But I doubt it’ll be done this way.

          Holding hands implies they’re trying to have sex. A penis, in a vagina? How do I explain that to my 4 year old?

      Yeah, I’d say, if hetero people need an excuse to have fun and celebrate something, I’m all for it. But I have a sneaky suspicion that this is going just going to be used as a hatefest towards LGBTQ+ people instead. I would love to be proven wrong but I have a feeling that straight cis people who are open minded and accepting and not bigots, aren’t the ones who feel the need to go “what about straight pride / international men’s day?” whenever anyone else gets a bit of attention.

        I’m cis-het and fully intend to go to the pride parade with friends in a different state. It’s going to be a great time! Idk why the largest groups feel like they need extra special attention.

        On the other hand, the concerns themselves are real, and if they will be addressed in a way positive to everyone else, this will be great!

        So, we’ll see. Under current administration, the risks for it derailing into the hate fest are quite high, but fingers crossed.

      I want you to say the same thing about black history month so you can understand how ridiculous this is.
