Chris Evans Blasts The Organizers of Boston’s ‘Straight Pride’ Parade
Chris Evans has long been an ally for the LGBTQ community, which is why he was not having it when three guys started organizing a “Straight Pride Parade” in his hometown of Boston.
Chris responded to a tweet from the Washington Post‘s coverage of the men’s plan.
Wow! Cool initiative, fellas!! Just a thought, instead of ‘Straight Pride’ parade, how about this: The ‘desperately trying to bury our own gay thoughts by being homophobic because no one taught us how to access our emotions as children’ parade? Whatta ya think? Too on the nose?? https://t.co/gaBWtq2PaL

LOL! But he didn’t stop there. He also shared a post written by James Fell, who basically explained why Straight Pride is a BAD idea.
Wow, the number gay/straight pride parade false equivalencies are disappointing. For those who don’t understand the difference, see below. Instead of going immediately to anger(which is actually just fear of what you don’t understand)take a moment to search for empathy and growth https://t.co/e98K0Z150T
