Can I prefer that people not use the recently-concocted -cis prefix to refer to my gender identity? Do I have the right to that preference without being shamed or called -phobic?

I do. Everybody should be proud of themselves. If pride isn’t about being proud and is about the fact that you used to be oppressed, we should change the name to “former oppressed parade.”

@@paradox7511 it’s not about wanting to travel to those countries, it’s the fact that it’s still illegal to be yourself in almost a third of all the countries on earth, that’s really fucked up.
As I've heard before, Pride isn't a celebration of queerness, it's a celebration of our resilience against punishment and oppression _because_ of our queerness
Right and all the pride parades, gay bars, display of pride flags in nearly every company, people who simply say they don’t agree with it are cancelled, all those trans people who r-word women in women’s restrooms and never got punished, trans people who are “posing” as women because they suck at their sport and come to steal the titles and achievements women have worked years for, is a sure sign you’re just oppressed.
There's a video going around of a group of men who shouted and cussed at a little girl who answered the door when she was home alone, because her family has a pride flag up. That's why we have pride.
yes i have seen that video, but oxford languages defines oppression as prolonged or unjust treatment or control. while a group of men yelling at a little girl that is not oppression
@@dankykang8172 that's fair enough, but I never mentioned oppression in my original comment. On the topic though, in most countries worldwide lgbtq folks are persecuted and killed, and hardly is it legal either, even in first world countries like South Korea. You don't have to respond to this though, because honestly I'm sick of having these arguments with people.
Nobody, in the history of humanity, has been killed, attacked, abused or anything like that, simply for being Heterosexual. People have been punished for many reasons, including Sex crimes, however, none of those punishments were carried put on the basis of someone simply being straight. And that is why, Heterosexual pride is unnecessary. The opposite is true for LGBT folks
that’s what i’ve been saying, i’ve recently seen this trend where people act like they’re so proud to be straight and show their “phases” but NO ONE is forcing them to be not straight

All the people saying that "no one cares about your sexuality" clearly don't realize that people are killed, hated on, attacked, imprisioned, and more around the world simply for being gay. Just because it doesn't happen around you, you don't see it, or you personally don't care, doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
Finally a sane person! Even in first world countries, there’s still homophobia! I live in Canada and I have gay friends with homophobic religious parents. They can’t tell their parents because they’re afraid they’ll get kicked out of the house. This is why we have charities like PFLAG and Egale Canada which are advertised at pride parades to help support abandoned gay kids
I know this video is old, but fun fact: the Irish government being bad at the Irish language nearly made heterosexual marriage illegal allowing only samesex marriage by accidentally mistranslating the new law after the decision was made to allow samesex marriage 😂
Also, wouldn't straight pride be the most boring party ever? Just millions of people with next to no non-boring fashion sense who can't dance and only listen to Pop music that's on the radio.
Strange view you do have about straight people. Yes, a straight pride month would be really stupid and useless, but straight people are not all the same, you know?
No one needs only a month to dedicate to being proud of themself. You can be proud of yourself whenever you want. Queer or not, you can be proud for who you are and how far you’ve gotten. That’s what pride is. Being proud of yourself.
The reason there’s no straight pride is because there’s nothing to be proud of. Nothing wrong with being straight, but it doesn’t take any courage to be openly straight. To be LGBTQ+ and openly so means you _will_ face some discrimination at some point, but you are openly yourself in spite of that. That is something to be proud of, hence: *_Pride_*
@Brock Garrett you're not being mean doesn't mean everyone else isn't being mean. Some people being mean enough to make laws to legally end people lives for being something they don't like. This isn't about you.
@Brock Garrett why wouldn't you support people having the right to receive healthcare without discrimination, being able to marry the person they love, and not having to be afraid of being attacked for being who they are? what is so wrong with equality?
@Brock Garrett Not supporting lgbtq people means you support laws that hurt and kill us. guess what there is no middle ground here. If you say you don't care and have no opinion on the matter that means you do not care that people are being legally killed and tortured just for being lgbtq. You don't have to fight for us, but supporting is the minimum thing to do as a human being because all it means is that hey you don't actually like that people are killing us for being lgbtq. it's the bare minimum, literally not hard at all.
@Brock Garrett so you disagree that other people will do something because you don’t? Do you see how stupid that logic is? That’s like me saying ‘I disagree that murder is a problem. I wouldn’t kill someone.’
Yeah for eleven months we’re parading around with straight pride flags, having every single company, corporation, and celebrity put out straight pride messages/commercials, and canceling everyone who doesn’t support our totally official eleven month long holiday.
@@bondfilmcollectibles2187 I'm pretty sure every LGBT+ person hates rainbow capitalism (companies sponsoring and making everything gay related) because most big companies that do it don't actually care about our rights. They are using the market as a fake way to be like "Yeah, but from us because we _totally_ support you." Yet, they still openly donate to anti-LGBT programs. The big companies usually just sponsor it to get more customers. Not because they actually care.
A couple of months ago, I had seen a post made by this guy saying "if gay people want to be treated the same as straight people, then why do they have their own month?" like, black people, and women also want to be treated the same as white men, but we have our own month, and nobody's complaining.
@@MakaylaPaterson Yes, my sister got a switch on my birthday. To be fair, it was her communion day on my birthday, but i was kind of pushed to the side for that day while my sister sucked up all the attention like a sponge in a frilly white dress.

As a straight person, I think LGBTQ+ should be celebrated and validated for the time, but as was the original purpose, it eventually needs to become a part of society that doesn't need celebration. I am not however making this comment to demean or discourage anyone.
You can’t tell me I’m not allowed to be proud for being straight! If I have enough money and enough people I can do whatever the hell I want, and that includes throwing a straight pride parade.
If others can tell everyone that they are lgbtq then i can also say I’m straight. Just because it’s banned in countries doesn’t mean you have to have an entire parade. You can be proud of your identity all you want, people just don’t wanna hear it. Now dont bs me with the “your homophobic, you’re stupid, …”. People just don’t care. We wanna be left alone and not hear “IM GAY….” Sure you can protest against those countries but why make everyone else respect and play by your rules? You don’t have the right to force people to do something. If we dont wanna hear it, you can’t make us. And if people are mad about a parade outside their house, they are not homophobic, they are just annoyed by it. And yet, people still understand everything the wrong way. This is why there are so many people who are mad about being given a title. *Basically* ; Be proud all you want, but just shut up about it, we dont want to hear it.
It's funny to me you think we're just prancing around with no reason, we're trying to make it NOT illegal in countries. You got a problem then dont lisen to our fight for equality, and be lucky you dont have to.
I don’t think Jammie’s talking about people like you who would rather just stay out of the commotion. He’s talking to all the people who are trying to actively get rights they already had and take said rights away from the ones they think are unworthy (I.e. trans and gay people)
@@YabbaGoDabba if your trying to make it not illegal in other countries then what the heck are you doing in the US? It seems like you’re just trying to seem more important to yourself by having a big parade commemorating you for being queer
@@YabbaGoDabbahow tf is parading around in the *US* helping? If gay people wanna get rights to have gay marriage in other countries then I completely support that. But "pride parades" are doing absolutely nothing to fix the problem. Pride parades are literally just making gay and trans people feel too special for existing. Like bro no one has a background of the straight flag behind their pfp yet many people have bisexual lesbian, etc pride flags in the background of their pfps. Like as a bisexual person myself, what makes you special for being gay? Barely anyone in the world being gay? If that's the case then their should be a flag for heterochromia too.
A couple years ago I actually saw someone argue that the UAE/Dubai having laws against public displays of affection is 'discrimination against straight people'. I feel insane having to explain that banning PDA does not make it illegal to be heterosexual. (The irony of course being, homosexuality actually IS illegal in the UAE.)
On a more jokey note, i remember last decade students in a nearby university were protesting single sex dorms, since a lot of them wanted to share a room with their partner or even just different sex friend rather than a stranger and one of the arguments they used was "it's discrimination against straight couples, since homosexual couples can get a room together without any problems.
Legalising and decriminalising are the first steps to equality, not the final steps. This is why pride month is still important in the USA and even places like The Netherlands.
@@imnotsofunny824 When existing publicly as non-straight or trans is no longer a taboo, when we're seen as just a normal part of the human condition. You know, equality is when we're seen as equals to those who are straight and cisgender, when our existence has been normalized. Pride demonstrations are protest... usually nonviolent protests get ignored, so pride stays nonviolent by being extravagant and fabulous. It's a rebellion against being forced to hide in a closet, to show people that we're not some abstract monsters, we're your co workers, neighbors, and family, and we're tired of being told to be ashamed and to hate ourselves for what we are.
@@BeastGuardian Yeah normalization is one of the big ones in the modern day--when people no longer say "kiss the bride" but instead some other gender inclusive term, when people don't refer to everyone who menstruates or gives birth as a "woman," when romance isn't constantly pressured on people as an end goal, when dresses aren't marketed as "for women" anymore. Funnily enough, the fight for normalization is causing us to realize that we haven't even fully overcome the fight for removing the taboo
So you want u.s. to be at the U.S. to be a totalitarian slave-state like Europe we're basically if you even speak slightly against the lgbtq community you can put in jail ?
Well. I don't think that straight flag is problematic. It depends on situation. For example straight ally flag is good. My opinion is that straight flag exist but there's no actual reason to use it.
It's kinda like a rainbow we have the rainbow(pride) because there's rain(discrimination). there's no rain for the straights so why would there be a rainbow? The rainbow also shows that it doesn't have to be all doom and gloom in the rain, it shines through makes us happy in an otherwise dark situation, the darkness still lowers the mood though, so if there were straight pride then the pride would make them more privileged than they already are because there is no rain to bring down there pride.
We have LGBTQIA+ pride because gay, lesbian, bi, pan, trans, ace and plus people haven't always had these rights. They had to fight for them over a series of years. What have straight cis people have to do to earn their pride parade?
Straight people who are allies can celebrate Pride with us. It's for everyone, not just for the LGBTQ. Together we can fight for equality for everyone, and around the world.

You can argue that it isn't something I should be proud of, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm proud of it
Guess what, even if you are straight, you cam participate in pride, by being an ally. We support straight, cis, allies in return for their support because supporting pride can still net you discrimination. So just becuase you are straight and or cis doesn't exclude you from pride. This has been a public service announcement.

I'd like to live in a world where we didn't have special months for people...because we didn't NEED special months for people because we'd already achieved relative equality and people treated people well regardless... Unfortunately, I live in this one instead. So, while I truly don't "get" the whole thing about a month for this or that, I've got enough sense to keep my mouth shut. Every time I heard someone say something was about "special" rights for this group or that, I looked into it, and all the "special" rights they were agitating for were things they should have been getting anyway...like getting married to the person you want to... Growing up in a society, with family expectations, what religion you're in, etc puts you in a lot of categories. Loads of people who decide for no reason they know you better than you. Then do you turn around and do the same thing? Being a member of a majority is f'd up. People randomly decide this or that kind of person is bad for no reason at all, and enough people say that you kind of go along with it...until you realize they've got no justification for any of this...but then you're too scared of your peer group or "friends" or whoever to actually do the right thing sometimes until it's too late to do any good. I wish more people would remember growing up awkward, or bullied, or not fitting in, and use that to reflect and change rather than be insecure and parrot this ideal or that...perpetuating harm. Not sure what I'm trying to say here.

I mean straight people produce the vast majority of the world's population though, Humanity can survive without gay people but they can't survive without straight people.
@@ninjatortise8958 What do you mean, exactly? That's an irrelevant statistic. Gays are produced in approximately the same percentage worldwide, according to every metric I've ever seen. So, I guess humanity could survive if 1/20th to 1/10th were culled...but do you want to live in that kind of world? Or are you one of those people who think they can be "cured" somehow, even though every past effort to do anything of the kind has been an abysmal failure both in terms of how humans should treat each other, and also just in practicality? Humanity could survive without lefties, too. If your folks are strict enough or old-school enough, you might have memories of being made to do things with your right hand no matter what...or not, because that's a minority of apprx 10-25% depending on who qualifies...but it's still a fairly large number of people who are going to do stuff differently than you. __ Being the most charitable I can with your argument, it seems to be that we should celebrate straight pride because there wouldn't be anybody left if we didn't like each other? But, you'd have to define stuff better. Bisexuals exist, you know. And most lesbians could get sperm from a lot of men if they wanted to even without technology. I guess if everyone were exclusively gay and we didn't have modern science then there wouldn't be people anymore...but when has that ever happened in the entire course of human history? The only people I can think of to have disappeared through lack of breeding were the Shakers, about whom I can't say for sure but I'm pretty sure their percentages of orientation weren't that different from the rest of the population. In other words, the alternative you propose isn't viable. I mean, I'm with you if you just want to celebrate love and relationships and all that stuff that makes life worth it...but I'd rather just do that with every relationship between people fortunate enough to have something like that between each other. I'd like to be special just as much as the next person, but I'm just somebody writing a post on a RU-vid video. However, as much as I didn't fit in in certain places growing up, being one of the few white guys in my neighborhood, being younger than my classmates, poorer than a lot of people, geeky, bad eyesight, tall, clumsy, etc...someone's always got it worse, especially in places that are worse. Had I been someone who actually were gay, or trans, or whatever, in my environment...on the one hand, I might have woken up sooner to things and gotten out, but I could also have been another, grimmer, statistic. Put it this way: I spent a lot of puberty feeling guilt for being a normal guy. Read the NT sometime, especially the passage about looking at a woman lustfully being equivalent to adultery, and therefore a breach of the commandments...and then consider that if you're a normal cis guy in your teens that happens about every time you look at a woman at all. Always made me wonder why certain "Bible-believing" people never seemed to read that passage but instead certain parts of Deuteronomy and Romans. I got taught in school that my forebears had basically stolen land from native inhabitants and oppressed everyone they could in the world...but also produced nearly every famous philosopher, scientist, politician, writer, etc. Unpack that a little bit, though, you'll see that taking credit or blame for any of that's a bit weird; none of them to my knowledge are direct relations, especially since 3/4 of my grandparents were relatively new immigrants to the USA...but that's the way Platonic thinking works sometimes - categories become more important than individuals. Raising awareness of stuff = good. This month or that month for these kinds of people or those...I guess it's the best thing people could think of to do that?
@@michaelnurge1652 thank you. All of this was beautiful. And being gay, i need to say i share that exact same view, i wish this world was one where no awareness was needed - i wish this was a world where being gay or straight is the same as having brown or blond hair. thank you for your thoughts

pride month is similar to black history month. It happens to a group of people who were suppressed. We don't have Stright pride month for the same reason we don't have white history month, it's because they were not ever suppressed.
@@abbie6003 I literally said "If you only know American history you wouldn't know that". In countries such as the ottoman empire white slavery was a common practice and in countries like the roman empire slavery of all races was extremely common. In America this was not the case but I was looking at the part that said "white people have never been oppressed" which is historically inaccurate
Because straight people don’t obsess over their sexuality. There are no laws in the US discriminating against homosexuals. There ARE laws discriminating against homosexuals in other countries. Let’s protest against THOSE countries instead of parading across a city half naked.
Know the real reason why there’s no straight pride is because we don’t need any empowerment or support. We’re already strong enough and we don’t need to show our pride as we know that we are proud of who we are
Some people need to also realize that Pride is also a festival to remember the Stonewall riots. Straight people didn't need to riot for human rights, so why would we need a festival to remember something that didn't happen?
a feeling of deep pleasure or satisfaction derived from one's own achievements, the achievements of those with whom one is closely associated, or from qualities or possessions that are widely admired. Hope that answers your question 😀
@@glizzygobbler2476 you thought you did something! 🤣 the definition of pride that you provided actually supports lgbtq+ pride month. Keep tryin tho bby! 🤪💅
Pride is the feeling of deep satisfaction and happiness for one's achievements and accomplishments. The LQBTQ has fought for their rights and celebrate the pride they have after so many accomplishments, heterosexual people didn't have to fight to be "accepted".
I mean straight people produce the vast majority of the world's population though, Humanity can survive without gay people but they can't survive without straight people.
In the vast majority of European countries and Canada there are very strict LGBT hate speech laws put in place where, if you even speak slightly bad against the lgbtq you got put in jail
Bro, now a days these pride marches include indecency, disgusting behaviour and exposure. It's not about the things that YOU guys used to stand up for ( love, acceptance, respect). Such marches and events are crap to be honest. And those people who want to include children in these puddles should be put behind bars
Very well said. I remember seeing a video of 2 guys with all this rainbow shit on sucking each others faces at a pride event, basically dry humping in the sight of children who were also attending & I was so perplexed!!! That is exactly why they get stereotyped as groomers. Kids don’t even wanna see mommy & daddy kiss. You think they wanna see Jim Bob & Pee Bo making out?! 😂
Excuse me kiddo, racism against white people is very real, found that out a few years ago. Chill with the crappy analogies, I'm not saying brown people don't receive racism, in fact some people commit hatrocious acts against them because of their skin colour. However I've been called a white boy and white bitch many times, wonderbread, some people say I blend in with the clouds, and even though there is a bit of fun to it, it still hurts. At first I was fine, and they kept doing it, and I couldn't respond to them without being cancelled, so I just had to take it. I literally felt ashamed of being white. Like what did I do wrong. I'm called bird shit sometimes too, like it's not my fault I'm white. I'm not racist like a select few of white people before me were. I just want to live a peaceful live. But for some reason, people will say shitty things for even shittier reasons. Please study up before u make an analogy like that. I don't want to sound like a crybaby c u n t, but ur just straight up wrong. I get why we don't have white heritage month, but they still get discriminated against, at least I do, that's the new thing now I guess. Please remember, not all people are racists. Amen 🙏
@@Kraekanthe way that people are acting these days are disgusting and I bet that calling someone white in the future is gonna be racist and calling someone black is not but years later it’s just gonna repeat and repeat and repeat again…
Personally, I believe it’s OKAY to be proud of being straight. Why does coming out make any difference? It’s more of celebrating WHO YOU ARE over what it is.
Yes it is okay to be proud of who you are if you are straight but that wasn't the point of the video. The point is while that is considered normal for you it unfortunately isn't for others and they get hated on for being okay with who they are. I'm happy you're proud of your identity i really am but I do hope you understand the issue is that not everyone has that privilege. Throughout history, the people of this community has suffered from discrimination and so many awful hate crimes and still does to this day...that's why pride exists. Overcoming that oppression and being proud of oneself despite the discrimination. That's what pride means. Straight people thankfully are not oppressed for the mere fact that they are straight and never have been. Also, by coming out some people are putting their literal lives on the line so it does matter. It really does
So basically what I'm trying to say is that I think it's more about standing up against oppression and being proud of who you are in spite of this oppression (that is still very prominent to this day)
@@anoran.7505 I just think people take it too seriously. It’s a sexuality, and? There is no need to harass others because they aren’t part of it. I recently lost two friends because I said I wasn’t big on supporting pride because of my religion. I was constantly called a homophobe before I had enough and left them all. People only focus on who supports rather than why. Scott Cawthon, a famous game developer, was THREATENED and forced to retire after he told the truth about his beliefs. It’s sickening how serious people take these things. Yeah, straight people should respect the LGBTQ community, and they should leave others alone. Not one group is in the wrong, I’m just pointing out the obvious here
@@Eternal-Theory that’s so dumb if your friends, I feel like you should do is just not be a dick and accept we might have other names or pronouns or maybe even a different identity, if it’s because of religion it’s fine and not homophobic, sorry about your friends (p.s. I’m a queer person, so this is from what I believe)
@@Eternal-Theory they seriously did that? I mean I would understand not wanting to be friends with someone not supportive of who you are(I just naturally stay away myself). I don't think it's homophobic of you though. I've only had some experience with homophobic people so I can't say🤔. But they usually don't have any respect at all and just want us to change. So yeah as long as you respect people (like use their pronouns and not judge their relationships) I don't think it should be a problem. Here it's really just wanting to be respected and not bullied etc so I'm quite surprised
While I get how some prudes are offended by folks cherrypicking the most out-there kinky Pride pictures and showing it to them, and while maybe some places should be better at keeping kink and kids apart during Pride events, it's likely the month is very much needed and should stick around until acceptance of non-hetero-standard people and relationships is pretty much equal with acceptance of hetero relationships.
oh god ok. there IS different sections at pride. major pride festivals do have closed off adult areas for more explicit things. HOWEVER. pride isn't kid-friendly point blank period. it's not just a party- it started off as riots and at any point can become a riot again. at any point it can become a bloodshed. it's just true. on top of that, pride's open display of sexuality is a key, integral part of pride. the kink part of pride has always been there and the open sexuality was on PURPOSE to normalize gay sexuality. yes kids go to pride, i remember as a minor having fun at pride, but it's like letting your kid see an R-rated movie- you know what to expect and pride shouldn't change it's values or push and kick integral parts of the event to the side to be more "family friendly" when it has never been supposed to be family friendly.
I make fun of straight people all the time. This means sarcastic commenta to my friends, not attacking someone and possibly killing them because they are different from me in a way that doesnt effect me at all.
Whenever my friend and I talk about romance she always brings up straight people like they're discriminated against. I brought up being called a slur over my sexuality and she compared it to a straight peraon being told their sexuality is overrated. Yes she's straight and always treats me like I'm straight or always has to say " as friends" when talking about meeting
I'm not saying there should be a straight pride in fact I think pride events full stop are a ridiculous idea but we should be able to say "I'm straight and I'm proud of it" without dirty looks.
@@OfficiallyOcean_old She makes a dumb argument though. Pride is when you take honor in something, or are very proud of something. Why can't I be proud of being Straight?
@@desireable9128 honey… nobody is discriminating against you people. Joking about the straights, yes, because cishets have been considered “the norm” for centuries and don’t go through oppression and treat the lgbtq community as if we’re trash.
Complaining that there isn't a straight pride celebration of any kind is like complaining that someone got a "Get well soon" card in a hospital, but they didn't, even tho they're not in the hospital
Well, at first I thought: you don't have to explain that. And then I thought: Right, you still have to. -.- Straight people usually don't think about it, incl. me, and don't realize that they have what you would call 'straight pride' every day (not just 11 months as some suggested in the comment section). It's just so normal that ... you know, we straight people have to not think about it. Prime example: me. See above. So, thanks for the reminder. I promise I will normalize LGBTQ+ pride whenever I have the chance by amongst others not pointing someone out and defending people when someone does point them out. Pinky swear. As an autistic female and having to sometimes fight ableism, but also just as a human being, I get it. Take care.
I mean straight people produce the vast majority of the world's population though, Humanity can survive without gay people but they can't survive without straight people.
@@ninjatortise8958 this same comment everywhere. the human race is gonna die out in less than a hundred years bc of capitalism and global warming anyways. who cares?
@@ninjatortise8958 this reminds me of when some people say "well if everyone was gay then we wouldn't produce kids." Like bruh, that's not the point. Not how the world is. Nobody is trying to turn other people gay. Just let people live their lives how they want to.
@@IndigoatTheTerrible Is this a joke or are you just being blatantly condescending? I can confirm that likely 0 of the people asking about it are Nazis. There aren’t as many remaining Nazis / Neo Nazis as you think there are, bro
@@Melsideee All or nothing. If we have a black history month have a white one. Gay pride month? Straight pride month. Or, have none of them. Picking and choosing seems weird to me.
@@sirisaac6225 ok but it does make sense to have a gay month and a black History Month. Think about how many places it's illegal to be straight. Oh. None. Think about a time where black people where treated better than whites and where white people were discriminated for their skin color and not allowed in certain areas. Oh. There wasn't. That's the point I'm trying to make.
