Is Pride exempt from public indecency rules?

[Libre2]

DD (aged 14) went into London today with a friend she is staying with. I can only assume friend’s parents didn’t realise it was pride weekend and we don’t live anywhere near London so had no idea.

Aside from the fact that it was a complete ballache getting back out because tube stations were closed, DD said she was shocked at some of the things she saw in terms of arses on display with men just wearing “thongs”.

How is it OK to have such sexualised stuff going on in view of young kids?

Sorry I meant to link the thread. https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/womens_rights/5368009-5368009-what-do-whips-spandex-and-dog-masks-have-to-do-with-pride?page=9&reply=145503952

Trans identifying male AidaP demonstrating a serious lapse in judgement more than once.

But why not try to get attention for something of note? So many young people seem to chase attention by dying their hair blue, demanding you call them they/them/zir or some other such shite and calling you a bigot for telling them to grow up. Have they no discernible actual talents that we should give them attention for?

'So many young people'.

How many?

I'm 58, have 3 young adult kids, and only know 3 people who are transgender/gender non-conforming. One is a pupil from my son's primary school who has transitioned female to male at the age of 20, the other is a friend's kid who again has transitioned female to male a number of years ago, and the other is a non-binary student who my son shares a house with. None of them 'demand' anything. They're all people who've gone through a lot and they don't deserve to be sneered at by people like you.

As for young people dying their hair - young people have always experimented with their appearance. I did. I suspect you did. You've now 'transitioned' into an adult who has contempt for young people who do what young people have always done.

Experiences vary. Some of us have had adult children go no contact when we have talked about protecting women's rights or argued against children being exposed to harmful drugs and mutilating surgery. Of course anybody is free to present themselves how they wish but the bodily dissociation, denial of reality and personal rejection is often heartbreaking for families. I think people are often angry about gender ideology rather than genuinely contemptuous of individuals.

Having blue hair and identifying as nonbinary is hardly mutually exclusive with talents. My green-haired nonbinary niece just graduated from Cambridge with a first.
your self expression is impirtant and people are allowed to want to show it in public,
