I think you have made the point well TBQ. The fact that you
don’t care Rocker means that the lGBTQ+ has succeeded in its aim
to make nobody care who or what other people are. Let me know
when the next picnic is TBQ, they sound like good fun.

Personally, when looking at rugby I don't care about sexuality,
race, religion or any other label. I watch rugby and the players
can be whatever they like, for all I notice. Similar approach in
business - I don't define anyone by gender, sexual preference,
politics, religion, race, or anything other than what they bring
to the table. None of these things matter.
It does get a little exasperating when some individuals start
griping about such things as "representation", as I don't think
tokenism or quotas are a good thing. Whether someone is gay,
Sikh or Egyptian makes no difference to me; but the idea that
there should be someone in a given scenario purely because of
that type of characteristic is a slippery slope.

I agree about the quota issue, but as opposed to deliberate
inclusion regardless of ability it can be a target to
demonstrate that people aren't being excluded and that
participation is in line with the general make up of society.

I think that inclusivity and equality are great ideas, up to the
point of opportunity; once that stage is reached, decisions
should be entirely merit based.

same - I am bored of self obsessed, narcissistic muppets
thinking the world is interested in them and what they do.
Personally I am into fetish rubber bondage etc - do i think the
rest of the world cares? no - i know they do not give a fk
Do I need to have a little march about my preferences? - no - I
am not totally self absorbed to the extent that I think anyone
else gives fk
Do I need to wave a little flag - no I have better things to do
with my time
Personally I do not give a fk what others do sexually I am just
sick and fing tired of them going on about it
Do I need to say I am proud? - No it is just who I am - if any
person does not like that I could not give fk

Have a lie down champ. Your little rant does not convince anyone
that you "do not give a fk" - in fact, quite the opposite.
To put it another way, in my experience, it's often the same
people who advocate free speech at all costs who would also love
to see Pride discontinued. You can't have it both ways. If you
want free speech and freedom to protest/demonstrate etc then I'd
suggest you need to find a way of it not bothering you so much
when thousands of people dance through London and bring colour,
music and a festival atmosphere. You know, for your own blood
pressure if nothing else.
Unless, of course, you don't advocate for free speech? But that
would make you a snowflake wouldn't it? Oh it's complicated
trying to present yourself as the right type of keyboard warrior
isn't it?
