None of the above.... "I want to fly the sacred heart of Jesus flag because I have to look at that pride flag for the next month."Pizza party?
Wearing Pride Flag?
Giving LGBTQIA+ employees a bonus?
Thank you notes?
Employee/Family picnic?

I'm not part of the lgbtq people but as much as I hate to admit this I think I'm a swiftie. How pathetic and embarrassing, middle-aged dude here. She's so talented.
Same thing I do every day - treat every single human being with respect and kindness until they reveal that they are not deserving.Pizza party?

Jesus was a LBGTQIA+ member so he'd be cool with you flying the pride flag if you wanted to.None of the above.... "I want to fly the sacred heart of Jesus flag because I have to look at that pride flag for the next month."

Asexual?Jesus was a LBGTQIA+ member so he'd be cool with you flying the pride flag if you wanted to.
I mean I guess he was a virgin. Weird to think about it.
no wonder he was able to accomplish so much.Asexual?

Yeah and there's an argument to be made that God is non-binary.Asexual?

I like to choose one random person to be really mean to. That way it means more when I’m nice to everyone else.Same thing I do every day - treat every single human being with respect and kindness until they reveal that they are not deserving.
This is my take on so called pride month. Gross overkill for a group who in this century are much less marginalized than real Americans who actually build, support, and sacrifice for this country.Jesus was a LBGTQIA+ member so he'd be cool with you flying the pride flag if you wanted to.

And my take as a Veteran is that people should stop using us to promote their bull**** takes.This is my take on so called pride month. Gross overkill for a group who in this century are much less marginalized than real Americans who actually build, support, and sacrifice for this country.
I first hand witnessed a guy get beat into a coma at college because he was "gay"This is my take on so called pride month. Gross overkill for a group who in this century are much less marginalized than real Americans who actually build, support, and sacrifice for this country.
You don't see how people are marginalized until you live in their skin. You should watch the movie Carbon Copy starring a young Denzel Washington.
We honor veterans all the time as they should be. I was at the yankee game at the stadium, this weekend and they honor a vet by bringing out on the field while god bless America plays in between 7th innings of every home game as do other stadiums. Airlines honor military service everyday by letting them board first We honor vets every day in many ways which is good. I think we honor our vets appropriately. You don't see the kind of behavior and feelings towards vets that you see to gay community.

People conveniently forget the LGBTQ members of the armed forcesYou don't see the kind of behavior and feelings towards vets that you see to gay community.
I rotated through the VA during medical school and had the nicest gay vet as a patient who unfortunately died of metastatic lung cancer. I think he fought in the Korean War. Probably with the draft there were a lot of gay men enlisted.
I’m curious how posting multicolor flags everywhere will keep people from being violent aholes. Seems unlikely and maybe more likely to cause them to be violent. Those kind of people aren’t going to stop hating x y or z because they are told to.

By your posts I assume you are at least 45 years old, maybe 50.
What happened to that kid in college is quite unfortunate but was also in the last century.
I agree that historically through the 20th century, both minorities and queer folk were marginalized. Completely wrong.
But this is the 21st century. You need to adjust to the reality of this modern century.
In 2024, A gay person and particularly a gay minority has a far far far better chance of being handed undeserved elite college acceptances, undeserved scholarships based solely on race or sex, and undeserved ultra competitive jobs compared to straight white or Asian person, particularly a straight white or Asian male.
Exceptions still exist, but on average it is far easier in 2024 in the United States to be a minority and/or queer than to be a straight white male.
So perhaps rational people might feel an entire black history month and an entire pride month is overkill in the 21st century compared to a single day, Memorial Day, that commemorates true Americans that fought and died for this country-

what eff dude?
it is easy to be gay? easy to be transgender? these folks are very rarely mentally healthy, especially when they are still in grammar school, middle, and high school.
if you want to talk 21st century, there was a fight between the furries and non-furries in my son's school today. im not even joking. with barking, meowing, whiskers, and the threat of a gun, so there you go.......

Middle school and high school are not great experiences for many different groups of people, but it is very very easy to be gay in college and beyond in america in this century.
It might not be easy to be transgender for the exact reason you mentioned.
I agree that transgender people are not mentally well, that's why they are crazy enough to somehow think that they are a sex opposite of what is imprinted on their chromosomes.
Okay. The pizza party and pride flags are the consensus here. Thanks.
I identify furries as cats. They have no human rights. No to going to school. Put them in a kennel. Spay/neuter.what eff dude?

Or get them mental health and take them away from their failure parents.
odd...This is my take on so called pride month. Gross overkill for a group who in this century are much less marginalized than real Americans who actually build, support, and sacrifice for this country.
didnt you do anything for military appreciation month?
oh wait, in case you didnt realize it, May was Military Appreciation Month.
and if you feel that vets are marginalized and not supported, just look at your side of the aisle. might i remind you that every single Nay vote on the PACT Act to help vets was from a Republican.
i say "thank you for your service" to vets every day.
ive never said that to lgbtqia person (unless they were a vet).
dont you?
Especially in Florida! Thanks DeSantis!Middle school and high school are not great experiences for many different groups of people, but it is very very easy to be gay in college and beyond in america in this century.
tell me you know absolutely nothing that is going on at college campuses without telling me so.Middle school and high school are not great experiences for many different groups of people, but it is very very easy to be gay in college and beyond in america in this century.
like i said, we only get 1 day for mother's and father's day, but PRIDE gets a month. I dont care who you sleep with in your bedroom. Just dont expose my kids to it and try to make them think it is normal. And to analogize a vet with LGBTQ is ridiculous. Vets enlisted to fight and sacrifice their lives for our country....LGBTQRS has done NOTHING that is even remotely equivalent.. And when i say LGBT i dont include african americans. They have fought in every war.
LGBT members have fought in every war, too....like i said, we only get 1 day for mother's and father's day, but PRIDE gets a month. I dont care who you sleep with in your bedroom.

but having a veterans day or month isnt enough for them obviously.....PRIDE month is about something else.LGBT members have fought in every war, too....
Are you similarly outraged by Woman's History Month and Asian American and Pacific Islander History Month? Or is your vendetta specifically against LGBT people?but having a veterans day or month isnt enough for them obviously.....PRIDE month is about something else.
I dont want any pacific islander around my kids Hula dancing or going to Luaus. They are going to brainwash my poor kids into wearing grass skirts. Next thing you know, they will be surfing. Where does it end?Are you similarly outraged by Woman's History Month and Asian American and Pacific Islander History Month? Or is your vendetta specifically against LGBT people?

By ensuring physical exam of cluneal nerves equally on all patients regardless of identity
You're right, LGBTQ+ identity correlates significantly mental illness.what eff dude?

There also is a correlation with LGBTQ+ acceptance and all sorts of paraphilias becoming commonplace.
the inability to allow others to live their lives that has no impact on our lives in a manner different from ours is a sign of mental illness.
Which one of those groups is trying to force themselves on kids? Don’t be so naive.Are you similarly outraged by Woman's History Month and Asian American and Pacific Islander History Month? Or is your vendetta specifically against LGBT people?
The inability to keep one’s sexuality private is a sign of mental illness.the inability to allow others to live their lives that has no impact on our lives in a manner different from ours is a sign of mental illness.
...and trying to use the wrong restroomWhich one of those groups is trying to force themselves on kids? Don’t be so naive.
Oh so it had nothing to with the fact that it's a whole month or the poor veterans, then.Which one of those groups is trying to force themselves on kids? Don’t be so naive.
By your logic, should we ban Christmas, then? Christians have forced themselves (in more ways than one) onto countless more children than the LGBT community has.
only on right wing media do lgbtqia people try to force themselves on kids.Which one of those groups is trying to force themselves on kids? Don’t be so naive.
please stop watching such poison.
The only reason there’s now a pride month is because the Democrats determined that they needed to pander for votes. From wiki….
“In June 1999, US President Bill Clintondeclared "the anniversary of [the] Stonewall [riots] every June in America as Gay and Lesbian Pride Month".[18] In 2011, President Barack Obamaexpanded the officially recognized Pride Month to include the whole of the LGBT community.[18][19] In 2017 Donald Trump declined to continue the federal recognition of Pride Month in the United States,[20] though he later recognized it in 2019 in a Tweet later used as a Presidential Proclamation.[21]
After taking office in 2021, Joe Biden recognized Pride Month and vowed to push for LGBT rights in the United States,[22] despite previously voting against same-sex marriage and school education of LGBT topics in the Senate.[23]”

I guarantee you that no respectable member of the LGBT community (outside of your local Catholic Church priest, of course) wants anything at all to do with your kids.Which one of those groups is trying to force themselves on kids? Don’t be so naive.

It’s about grown men dressing up like clowns, then telling insane made up stories in order to groom/indoctrinate young children (and occasionally molest them).What do you think drag queen story time is about?
Oh wait that’s the Catholic Church again.
Please join us in the 20th+ century. If a priest is doing that, he’s definitely LGBTQRS!!! Also, where in the Bible does it say what LGBTQRS books say? Also please enlighten us as to which churches are advocating for gender transformation?It’s about grown men dressing up like clowns, then telling insane made up stories in order to groom/indoctrinate young children (and occasionally molest them).

Good point and thats why I specifically excluded repressed gay men (who go into the priesthood to avoid coming out) as respectable in my post. Ever notice that anytime there is a gay sex scandal it’s almost always a white republican? It’s always the ones most vocal in fear mongering against the ‘lgbt agenda’ or who are (dare I say🙂) ‘curious’ as to what we are doing for pride month who end up being the biggest queens in the end.Please join us in the 20th+ century.
