Tuesday on twitter, Mark Sahady’s Facebook post began to circulate. Sahady is hoping to organize the Boston Straight Pride Parade. (Certainly no coincidence that this was posted just as Boston Pride month was about to start.)
A website has even been set up and includes the team behind this event.
“Super Happy Fun America invites you to celebrate the diverse history, culture, and contributions of the straight community!
The Straight Pride Event will be held to achieve inclusivity and spread awareness of issues impacting straights in Greater Boston and beyond. It will be a one-day event consisting of a parade followed by a flag raising ceremony.
Celebrate being heterosexual!”
This has to be a joke, right? The motivation behind this whole thing has got to be to stir the pot and get people all riled up. Good grief!
