Bring Back Lesbian Pride – 5TH JULY 2025

Aren't they just?

Odd, this movement. You can show off any kink in public and involve non consenting others in ways that would get you banned from any reputable BDSM club, except be a woman who wants to be alone with other women.

And peacefully talk together and have a picnic.

Then the mob in the dress of the Kitkat club on a bad Friday night turn up and lose their minds.

How about reading the OP, which answers your question:
WHY WE’RE MARCHING
Because Pride doesn’t speak for us anymore.
Because lesbian voices are sidelined.
Because we’re done being quiet.

Quite a few lesbians are mothers. Pretty sure they can take their children along to this picnic if they want. They’re much less likely to see fetishes on display here than they are at a mainstream Pride event.

Did it?
Can’t say I noticed much.
I wonder why🤔

For the hard of thinking who mock lesbians wanting their own event, this was the upshot of a recent TRA protest:
Two young lesbians got punched and dragged to the floor.
From another thread currently active in FWR. Brought to our attention by Mr Menno, not the BBC <shocked Picachu face>

On the plus side, it's very useful evidence to the people in the vicinity (thinking of the baffled people in that Manchester shopping centre) and on social media, when they see how inadequates come running to behave atrociously at women peacefully being visible in public. In this case it'll be open homophobia.

No chance of that happening. Rural market town full of drag queens and loud music and progress flags. It was all about men in frocks. Every single event was hosted by a drag queen or had a drag queen as the main performer.

So I can 100% see why lesbians want a march to themselves. They didn't get a look-in at Pride near us.

I hope it goes brilliantly. I say that as a straight woman who has massive respect for all the lesbian feminists who have taken on the gender-borg these past few years.

I think that ship has already sailed by the looks of this thread. Not even a page in and it had three.

Because of comments like this …

Yes but the point is that bad lesbians who want their own spaces and to not be used by men should never be out in public at all, never mind enjoy themselves.

Hence why as mentioned above, those who believe in women control, abuse and repression will be there to wreck their day for giggles. Vile behaviour. It's nothing to do with 'trans', it's just plain antisocial nastiness. What the FBI profilers call 'inadequates'.

Pansexual women are bisexual women so why wouldn't they be included?

The only reason I’m not going this year is a prior commitment, but last year I loved it.

And squirrels. What about squirrels?

And left handed vegans who are allergic to peanuts?

And mechanics. Will nobody think of the mechanics?

Good luck to everyone wanting to do this and hopefully sad twats won't harrass them but I suspect that won't happen.

The entire month of Pride is basically dedicated to trans people now, and explicitly excludes anyone who doesn't agree that lesbians can have penises.

Hmm. Given that the protest purpose is because they no longer feel part of pride, it possibly is a deliberate decision to hold it in another month. Y'know it's not difficult to read the OP and clock this possibly relevant point.

If that's the case, why are you bothered about it?

As long as it's peaceful and no one participating is violent or threatening it's not a problem at all. It's a democratic right of those who attend to do so.

You might have missed it but an entire month of pride just passed

It's not for you, Bee, so just buzz off.

Why does there have to be a parade!?

Because lesbians are being driven back in the closet for not wanting to have to deal with lesbophobia, sexism, abuse and harassment.

The above quoted post is an example of why the march is needed.

Likely to happen:

<100 people in attendance
Most people attending will be straight and / or the usual suspects (aka 'the LGB Alliance effect)

May happen:

A couple of trans women will join in for a giggle and no one will even notice.
Some butch / GNC women will get JK Rowlinged by other attendees

this is so embarrassing hopefully kids aren’t allowed either.

nobody cares if you’re gay straight bi lesbian . Nobody cares if you hate men.

just get on with it

why does there have to be a parade

what about pansexual women?

Commenting on my own post!
Re the picture I posted - looking at it again, I can't help thinking that if it is, as the caption on the Historic England website states: 'Lesbian Strength and Black Lesbians marching..'
the banner at the front must have said LESBIAN STRENGTH. But the photo has been cropped so that's not visible.
I hope it's some sort of coincidence, but these days, you never can tell...🙄
