Hello lesbian/bisexual Spinsters, how do you feel about Pride nowadays? I feel as though the more inclusive Pride becomes, it reinforces heteronormativity as it includes anyone who is "none-straight" or "sexually-divergent" or differently expressing individuals. I could be wrong, so please correct me. I feel as though Pride truly used to be about those who were gay/bisexual/lesbians. Now it is about any and everyone who is not straight including, transgenders, transexuals, intersex, crossdressers, asexuals, "non-binary", "queer" etc. And now with the inclusion of race, or rather the attempt to include race in this discussion, it's almost becoming now anyone who isn't white and straight is included.Just an observation but I could be wrong. I am not also saying it wrong or right as I just would like to hear some thoughts about this. All of my lesbian/bisexual feminist friends are extremely progressive and so they disagree with my observation.

@typeadhd How I feel? That I don't belong. That it's been taken away from me in a way. Although they can have it. At the beginning in the early 80s (or late 70s) when I first saw that, it was gay men parading around in drag, or flashy clothes, leather types as well, with loud music. It was colourful and I would look from the sidelines out of curiosity. Then slowly, as the years went by, lesbians joined. My feeling left out is kinda weird, I see it as the swing back of the pendulum, it's not for me. It once was, not anymore.

@typeadhd And it is true, by including everyone and their uncle, they are pushing out those that Pride was created for, although I think gay men might be more *accommodating*, I wouldn't know, they don't feel as threatened by these first class clowns as lesbians do. Pride to me at least, doesn't mean anything anymore, I'm not even curious about watching the parade.

@typeadhd Yeah I hate pride, at least the US/UK kind. It's absolutely all about being abnormal in any way, and it's got nothing to do with orientation anymore and it's an actively hostile place to me, with most of the attendees being proudly pro-conversion at this point. I will not be attending.

@typeadhd Anyone who supports "trans people", be that in the idea that some people "are trans", or that some people benefit from transitioning (including everything from SRS to incorrect pronouns) is supporting conversion therapy.Transsexualism was invented to turn gay people "straight", it was added to Stonewall's agenda for a £100,000 bribe from an openly anti-gay organisation, 70% of those referred to recieve cross sex hormones are homosexual, and 90% experience some same sex attraction - it IS a tool to exterminate us.Most pride-goers now would consider my decision not to submit to the medical torture of "transition" to become straight to be immoral, because I am a GNC homosexual who used to "feel I should have been a man" due to internalised homophobia.Most pride-goers now think I should submit to corrective rape by a TIM, and that refusing is immoral. Some think I should be put to death for it.

@typeadhd Yet “transgenders, transexuals, intersex, crossdressers, asexuals, non-binary, queer” ARE mostly straight.For as long as I’ve been aware of the gay community, Pride has been corporatized so much it’s never really been about gay people. Even before I was around. When it is about gay people, it seems to be about the subset of gay men who like to air their private lives in public and go out half naked. Dan Savage’s sort. As far as I can tell, lesbians have never really been “represented” by Pride. Maybe it was okay when it used to be about Christopher Street Liberation Day, but that was a pretty short phase.So - not a fan, never been a fan. “Pride Month” shouldn’t exist.

@typeadhd I hate pride. It makes me feel alienated from the rest of the world since people are singling me out as part of the alphabet soup. I feel like it makes me into a part of this kink club that I don't want to be in. It's no longer for ordinary LGB people, it's all about the kinksters and TRAs and I do not want to be associated with those people. It all reminds me that there's no place for the LGB (especially the L) in the world, not if you want to be liked. Pride is not a place where I can be who I am, instead it's a place that reminds me that if I want to be liked, I should be hiding. It just makes me feel like shit.

@typeadhd I think Pride had it's place. I think it accomplished what it needed to - before we had equal rights, before we had marriage, Pride was a necessary protest. Before it became hip & trendy to be LGBTQIALMNOP+*, you also didn't see any corporations represented at Pride lol. There weren't companies changing their icons on social media to rainbows, there weren't companies lining up to have tents along the parade route. But now that there's money in it? Now that being ""queer"" is mainstream in liberal circles? Companies are trying their hardest to be seen as cool and progressive, and I hate that so much. Pride just feels like a weird business venture now. Part of that is due to "cancel culture", I think, where if they didn't do something as silly as change their profile picture to a rainbow, they'd be put on an actual LIST of "homophobic companies" and liberals are told to not use them. I'm sorry, I don't need to know if my fucking toothpaste is queer lol.You're right, though - pride is now less about gay rights and entirely about being anti-cis/het/white. It's very commonplace to bitch about "the cis gays" even AT parades lmao. There's plenty of anti-cis "merch" at Pride, which - "MERCH" being a thing at all just sickens me. It's so clearly a cash grab. It's so disgustingly a cash grab. I think Pride did what it needed to, accomplished making LGB(t) seen as a bit more normal...and now it's about companies finding a way to get money out of you. I hate it lol.

@typeadhd I don’t want anything to do with it, and I’ve only come to terms with being a lesbian a year ago. If I attended, would feel like walking on eggshells. Want a lesbian only pride, keep the fellas out.

@typeadhd absolutely hate it. To echo what others have said, it’s just about “difference” now. It’s entirely dominated by BDSM/kink stuff and trans shit. All the girls my age are trans/‘enby’ now so there are extremely few other lesbians. I don’t know if it used to be different, but my experience with it has been a shit show.On a more melancholy note, sometimes I feel there’s little left to be proud of. This community is actively destroying female spaces and putting women/girls in danger. I don’t take pride in belonging to a group that campaigns for the end of sex based rights.

@typeadhd Lesbians have had problems with the behavior of non-Lesbians at Pride since it's inception. The boys always engaged in narcissistic exhibitionism.

@Nagaraja I think, only feminine lesbians are supposed to undergo the corrective rape. The butch ones should trans themselves. @typeadhd

@Melkora @typeadhd With all due respect, you're not a butch, nor a lesbian at all - and no, all lesbians are pressured to submit to corrective rape to become bisexual. They will not allow any woman, transitioned, butch, or not, to be a homosexual.

Firstly, how do you know, if I'm a butch or a lesbian?And secondly, we are talking about the trans cult. And from what I've noticed, they push butch lesbians to become men and femme lesbians to take girldick. They don't push them to become bisexual. They don't want them to have sex with "cis" men. I don't know, if women are pushed to take girldick even after they start calling themselves men. Maybe! I haven't seen a huge push back on TIFs to accept the TIMs as sex partners. @Nagaraja @typeadhd

@Melkora @typeadhd Because I've seen you talking before about how you're bisexual. They go after femmes more because they want to fuck them more, but no lesbian is free from pressure to become bisexual - not to "identify as bi", but to date both women and TIMs, ie, be bisexual. Them not wanting lesbians to fuck "cis men" has nothing to do with them wanting us to become bisexual.There's less targeted hatred towards TIFs because they assume trans people aren't transphobic, and don't need re-educating into bisexuality because f course a trans person would never invalidate a transwoman.

@Hollahollara Nothing grinds my gears more than the addition of brown and black. I don't have the mental energy like it makes zero sense. It's implied that anyone of any race because it's about sexuality sigh.. who's idea was this anyhow

@typeadhd @Hollahollara it's appropriation at its most purely opportunist and disgusting.
