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.
That's a fair point, and I'd like to see more opinions on that issue too.
If the argument is that banning kink would further the sanitisation of pride, then we're missing a big piece of the picture by not including the experiences of people who have already been effectively banned for not conforming with that corporate ideal.
