Like what, besides literally just the most basic "I like gay" shit is in this case "allowed" at pride because of being "integral" to your sexuality/gender? I deadass just dont understand the logic, if it exists.
Like why is leather "allowed" at pride then, is being a biker integral to your sexuality?(I obviously know the cultural history for leathers association with queer culture, but kink has similar history and associations so this isnt a valid differentiation).
Just boggles me real hard, I know its probably just a bad faith argument but I still wanna find out what the actual possible reasoning is.
Only the most superficial and sanitized expressions of LGBTQ+ culture and history.

(I wonder if there are some skits out in the universe where this argument is played out but instead of Pride/Kink controversy its some Veteran's Day Parade/Vietnam (or pick you're favorite war crime laden conflict).)
I can only imagine one of those shitty neonazi parades where they all wear black pants white collared shirts but instead of nazi slogans or tiki torches we have to carry a sign that just states "I AM GAY/TRANS/BI, HELLO" and that is the limit of your expression cause nothing else is "inherent" to it.
