The Queer Ritual Podcast

Why is there no "Straight Pride"?

Riki B Malone Episode 31

I'm sure many of us in the LGBTQ community have been asked this one. Why is there no STRAIGHT Pride?

I will always answer that pride is a response to shame. So people who have been taught to be ashamed of who they are inside (whether that is sexual orientation, gender identity, etc) are who the Pride movement is for. That isn't to say that people who are in the white Christian majority cannot be proud of who they are, but they haven't been taught to feel shame over who they are.

Stay safe, friends!
