You know what I love my wife, but you don't hear me trying to get a straight persons month. I can care less who you love weather it be a person of the same sex or what ever. Frankly the fact that we have a month that celebrates what less then 10% of the country believes is crazy. like I said to each their own but this is ridiculous.

You know why you don't ask for a straight person's month? Because you don't need it. The same way we don't have wheelchairs for people who can walk.
Pride came about because people got tired of being abused by the police and shunned by society. Scores of people who were watching their friends and loved ones die in isolation from AIDS, murder, and lack of protection. The bottom line is, we got tired of not being treated as equal human beings.
Today more than ever it's important. People are still being murdered. They're still committing suicide. They're still being kicked out by their families and shut out. Hell, entire government organizations are trying to erase their existence because of archaic scare tactics that were used against gay people back in the 50s, labeling them predators.
Less than 10% is not the number of the population that believes in fairness and equality. That's the part of the population that was used by a certain President to gain power, and the only thing that man cares about is himself. People are just pawns for his own ego.
Regardless of the politics of it, you don't ask for straight pride because no one is killing straight people off for being straight.
