Pride- family friendly

Tell me again how pride is family friendly.

Posted on Facebook, I added the sticker.

Yet I’m a bigot if I raise concerns.

What are you whittling on about?

C4tintherug · 02/09/2025 10:03

The picture didn’t post so my post makes no sense! It’s a post from pride festival last weekend in Reading, with a drag queen lifting up their skirt on stage to expose everything underneath.
But the organisers had said it was family friendly beforehand?!

Expose everything

you mean genitalia?

Well he has on flesh coloured tights but you can see through them and there is no underwear!

Were you there with kids? Are you trying to ask if you should complain? Or are you just perving on random drag queens with no context?

Hang on a sec.
Perving is when someone intrudes on someone else's private activities, e.g. looking or phone camming over/under cubicle divders.
Perving is not when someone is publicly flashing their genitals at a parade for maximum exposure.

The two are not remotely close. That feels to me very much like a dishonest representation. Pretending one is the other reflects on you not OP.

@C4tintherug Can you re-post the image but with an emoji or something covering the drag queen's genitals so we can get an idea of what you mean?

I would absolutely not take my 3yo daughter to a pride event.

I am very supportive of people who are same-sex attracted, but pride is no longer about promoting and campaigning for homosexual and bisexual rights, but about celebrating people's sexual proclivities.

C4tintherug · 02/09/2025 11:59

I am not perving- it popped up on my Facebook? I was surprised to see it when I had seen a post from the organisers a couple of days ago maintaining their “family friendly” status.
Posting pic again hopefully it will post this time!

I wouldn't take my kids to a pride parade, there are too many (usually) men showing off their kinks from photos/videos I have seen

Other people were there with kids bc... It was marketed as family-friendly. But clearly the whole point was to attract kids to this event so perves can expose themselves to children. We're talking about a man who knowingly exposed himself in public at an event marketed as "family friendly" and you're defending him and calling us perves for bringing attention to it?? More proof of how mentally ill you all really are.

He obviously didnt get the "family friendly" memo.
Oh how I long for the days when drag queens had actual talent, like Lily Savage, Dame Edna and Hinge and Bracket. I'm showing my age now.

WitchyWitcherson · 02/09/2025 14:53

Yuk.

You just reminded me I've been flashed by a drag queen but it was in a gay bar in Leeds in the early 2000's and there were no children present. He at least had a union jack thong on under his dress..!

Get a grip. Getting randomly flashed at a family friendly event is NOT perving. WTF is wrong with you?

Latenightreader · 02/09/2025 21:37

Grim.

I worked at a Pride event last Saturday. The daytime event (ticketed festival, no parade) was full of families and teenagers. I didn't even see the dubious captions I saw on a couple of tshirts last year. The evening event was adults only, but we were packed up by then so I have no idea what it was like.

Should we assume you have no issue with that man exposing his genitals to children at an event marketed as ‘family friendly’?

NeverOneBiscuit · 02/09/2025 23:57

We really are in the upside down.

You’re a man who wants to expose his genitals to adults & children? No problem. A wig, a charicature of a woman, a double entendre name & you’re edgy, stunning & brave.

Do the same in the local park?

What’s the difference?

Nothing, just a forcing of an ideology & gaslighting.

This appears to have been removed from FB. I wonder why.

A man exposing his genitals in public is committing an offence. But 6/10 for your DARVO attempt to make the victim of a sexual offence into the bad guy.
