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

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

In that case they should become feminists.

Tbf all cemeteries are for living people. The dead don't care.

As a straight cis man, the idea of straight pride is pathetic. It's so easy, nobody ever questions you for it. There is no work in living your sexuality. Such a sad idea. Has those "all lives matter" vibes

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.

If you are brown…the US.

That's a country where being brown is dangerous, not being straight.

Though being the straight partner to a brown person can be dangerous here (even if you yourself are not brown), so I guess it does work in a way.
