Idaho Bar Offers Specials For 'Heterosexual Awesomeness Month'

It's a shame, because I really like Chris Evans as Captain America in all the Marvel films. But back in 2019, when three guys in Boston applied for a permit to hold a “Straight Pride” parade and asked to fly the Straight Pride flag over city hall, Evans attributed the effort to latent homosexuality. His account no longer exists, but his tweet read: “Wow! Cool initiative, fellas!! Just a thought, instead of ‘Straight Pride’ parade, how about this: The ‘desperately trying to bury our own gay thoughts by being homophobic because no one taught us how to access our emotions as children’ parade? Whatta ya think? Too on the nose??” According to the ADL, the phrase "It's OK to be white" is racist and has been co-opted by white supremacist groups. And "straight pride" is obviously homophobic. It couldn't just be a reaction to the LGBTQ community getting an entire month dedicated to celebrating them. Even "Sesame Street" celebrates Pride Month:

Sesame Street @sesamestreet: “Happy #PrideMonth from Sesame Street! Today and every day, we celebrate and uplift the LGBTQIA+ members of our community. Together, let’s build a world where every person and family feels loved and welcomed for who they are. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💗🤎🖤” https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GO2b7UBWAAA_ept?format=jpg&name=large -- "Today and every day, we celebrate and uplift the LGBTQIA+ members of our community." Why? Why are we celebrating and uplifting a small minority of people just because of their sexual orientation? Hey, you're gay, congratulations. I admire this guy because I can only imagine the backlash. His bar in Idaho is celebrating "Heterosexual Awesomeness Month." -- Oli London @OliLondonTV: “Idaho bar launches ‘Heterosexual Awesomeness Month’ to celebrate straight people during Pride Month. “Monday is heterosexual male Monday and if you’re a heterosexual male and you come in here you get a free beer.””

I'm surprised Antifa's Idaho chapter hasn't burned the place down yet. This shouldn't be controversial. But the reason elementary school teachers want to discuss sexual orientation and gender identity is to get to them before they become "cisnormative" — that is, thinking that men are men and women are women is "normal." As I said, I admire the guy. I can't imagine the hate he's going to get. That said, I don't think we need a Pride Month either. A whole month? -- Yonaguni Stallion @yonaguni_horse: “I feel like flying all the way to farken Idaho just to get a beer there.” -- M2 @Amer1can_Barbie: https://video.twimg.com/tweet_video/GPMZv67boAAxFVz.mp4 -- Lou Dogg @LouFrogg: https://video.twimg.com/tweet_video/GPLsBNfXIAAoewC.mp4 -- Johnna Houseman @JohnnaHouseman: “God bless them” -- Lazyjoebeard @Kabukijoe1221: “I have been sober for many years but if this happened near me I would go have a drink.”

Katherine @Appreciate_YOU9: ““Facing Criticism”? Seriously? Who cares. Good for this guy, looks like a bar I’d like to visit!” -- Criticism: Vicky Cruz @babevickycruz: “This is just ridiculous. It's like they are trying to make a joke out of Pride Month. Straight people don't need a special month because they aren't marginalized.” -- Marginalized how? All we talk about is the LGBTQ community. And the pride flag has more protections than the American flag. Who would make a joke out of Pride Month, when naked men in body paint ride bicycles through the street in front of little children to express their pride? Dildo ring toss for the kids! Drag makeovers for your kids! Marginalized. The president hosts a huge Pride Month celebration at the White House.
