DD(15) wants to go to Pride London.

AIBU to advise strongly against? My sense is it’s not a family-friendly event these days.

London is a safeR city than many.
But this isn't necessarily a safe event.
Why on Earth does she want to go?

I'm sure she will be perfectly safe. Is she going with friends?

London is a reasonably safe city, but even so it is hardly unreasonable to assume that there is some risk. "I'm sure she will be perfectly safe" is naive or the words of someone talking about another's child, not their own.

Pride itself is now homophobic and misogynistic and is mainly about the public display of fetish and paraphilia, not rights.
