someone not wanting to see kink shit at pride is not homophobia oh my god
just to clarify
this kind of thing?
totally fine. go nuts. stay hydrated. try not to overheat. (seriously how do yall wear all that leather shit in the middle of the summer??)
but this shit?
hmm no. save it for folsom.
exactly why you should keep it at home
Pride parades should be a safe place for queer kids. If you want to organize private adult only Pride events then more power to you, but Pride parades and other public Pride events should be kid-friendly. It’s important for queer kids to see healthy displays of queer affection but you should not be doing anything sexually explicit or kinky at a Pride parade. Save that for adults-only venues and events.
Pride should be safe for all queer people and queer kids are a subset of queer people who are especially vulnerable and especially in need of a safe place thanks.
I’ll preface this with saying i’m very much against kids being exposed to anything sexually explicit at pride 10000%.
However, I have to ask because this post has been bothering me all day: Who’s the arbiter and where’s the line?
Why is the top set of leather guys ok but the pup guys aren’t? There doesn’t appear to be any nudity on display and nobody is engaging in or simulating any kind of sex act in those pictures so what makes one acceptable and the other not exactly? Would the pup guys be acceptable if they were walking upright and not on all fours?
Further more what makes the pup guys unacceptable but these
are all MUCH more commonplace at every pride i’ve ever been to and nobody anywhere on this post has suggested these kinds of displays are a problem.
Like i said i’m fully against kids being exposed to anything sexually explicit but i’m failing to see how a mask and a leash count as inherently more explicit than gyrating gogo boys in dick accentuating underwear or people being topless or wearing hats that say PUSSY.
Thank you.
