I've literally heard someone say "You'll be discriminated against for being straight in the US!"

Nah, bruh. It's not your straightness that's the issue— it's your stupid-ass views & shit-fuck opinions.

    I honestly don't have any pride for being straight, and I have no idea why I should.

    I mean with domestic violence rates as they are you could argue it's dangerous to be a straight woman pretty much everywhere.

    Being straight is pretty dangerous on the sun, but considering it a country would require stretching the definition

    Philippe I, Duke of Orléans's "homosexual activity was not unwelcome, because it was seen to reduce any potential threat he may have posed to his older brother."

    That is a rare instance where being straight was more dangerous.

    Straight pride is stupid.

    No.

    The answer to your first question is: "No. Not at all. That is independent of sexual orientation."

    And "openly expressing an urge to fuck" at work vs "get in your gimp suit and party on a float" at a public event.... If you can't sus out the difference between those two situations, no wonder you are afraid of getting in trouble...

    What a dumb argument.

    From what I observed the people who consider the concept of consent flawed and are discussing how it could be improved upon, so the safety and comfort of all people involved is protected seems, are the same people who fights for women's right. There is a great RadioLab dive in on the topic - I honestly couldn't recommend it enough). People who demands straight pride parades uses any edge cases of consent going wrong to weaponize it into "it happened, so the consent was there". If you're genuinely concern about safety and well-being of man, you're putting your effort in a wrong place.
