Straight Pride Parade: Marching for the "Oppressed Majority"

On August 31st 2019, Boston reluctantly hosted its first Straight Pride parade. The parade’s organizers aimed to raise awareness about the issues impacting America’s heterosexual community -- the “oppressed majority.” While some view the parade as a joke, others see the Straight Pride movement as a significant threat against the LGBTQ+ community.

I just came here to watch the whole scene with the guy in the shark suit

"Is it obviously a joke?" She asks the dude dressed up like a shark.

I am officially coming out of the closet to say that I am straight. This is who I was meant to be. Now, more than ever, we can celebrate straightness together as the underappreciated group we are.

I love how the lgbt people are yelling f*ck you and flipping them off seems a bit odd seeing as that didn’t happen at the pride one

“Straight Lives Matter. Gay Lives Matter. Black Lives Matter. All Lives Matter. Everyone’s life matters. Except for socialists.” -shark man

[@justinstevenson3835]

Notice how everyone at straight pride has their pants on.

[@D_Evelyn_cat]

I was born pansexual and i've always felt like i only liked men but now i can finally come out to my mom that i'm straight 🙏🏽

[@GenericUserYTube]

"... Everyones lives matter except for socialists"

[@bswift5]

This parade changed my life. I thought everyone was gay and trans. I found straight people like me. It was my great awakening. I came out and I’m loud and straight

[@CenturyStopMotions]

I wish there were more of these parades.

[@Alex-ut8gd]

Notice how they are all wearing clothes.
