the "cishet boyfriend at pride" discourse is weird to me bc like. i understand that lgbt people are wary of cishet people bc of potential lgbt-phobia, but as a trans person i have had cis lgb people be transphobic to me and hurt me. if tere was some way to magically exclude every cishet from pride, then as a trans person i would likely still experience transphobia so it wouldn't necessarily make pride a safer place for me or other trans people?? (and also i'd still experience ableism but we don't need to get into how ableist abled lgbt people can be or how inaccessible pride events often are.) really i don't care who's at pride. you can't 100% exclude all cishet people from pride, when the lines between who's queer or not can be blurry for some people, and some people just don't identify as lgbt or cishet or anything at all. and even if you could, i don't see why we should exclude cishet people bc i don't care who's at pride as long as they're not being bigots. idc if they're cis or het or a man or whatever. bc at the end of the day not every cishet is automatically a bigot, and not every lgbt person is automatically free of bigotry and biases. idc who's at pride just be nice!!

not to mention, why on earth are you making assumptions about someone's sexuality and gender, especially at a pride event

also someone was claiming that england is "actually celtic" and that they "just need to accept it" like what is that supposed to mean!! yes they had history of celtic-speaking pepples there, but celtic identity today is mainly focused on if there is a modern celtic language spoken there, which england does not have!! (cornwall is not england 🖤🤍) so many places in europe from ireland right over to parts of western asia used to have celtic languages spoken there, but it doesn't make any of those places celtic now, unless they have a modern celtic language!!. modern celtic identity isn't about things that happened that long ago. i'm going to lie down.
