Sex Worker Pride Marches.

I have never ever been to a "Gay Pride" march, which seems to be one of the only regular
festivals in a modern city.
It makes me sad to reflect that Gay Pride marches are one of the few regular and prominent festivals that exist in modern cities.

I never ever attend - for various reasons.

Sex workers are an even more ubiquitous and even more necessary part of the world than homosexuality.
But when will we have regular Sex Worker Pride Marches to defend and celebrate sex workers?

Full legalization of sex work is the way forward.
No consensual sex acts should be illegal.
This is after all the same principle that allowed for the legalization of homosexuality.
This principle that no consenting sex act should be prohibited is after all the principle that allows many people to tolerate the behavior of homosexuality.
It is applicable a fortiori in the case of sex work.

It is a measure of how totally and utterly (metaphorically) sick our "society" is that a "Heterosexual Pride March" would probably be a) banned as pornography and b) poorly supported and, c) condemned as discriminatory.

Because of the encroachment and oppressive domination of some misguided forms of feminism and the ideology of homosexual rights, it seems to be that Heterosexual Pride Marches are maybe even needed, such is the battering that mere normality has been forced to take.

Yes, I am for full toleration of homosexuality but I am against "Gay Pride" marches as I feel that they are an imposition of a minority's behaviour onto society as a whole.
I feel that Gay Pride marches are an example of a tyranny of a minority.

Why should anyone have to share in a supposed pride in a behaviour that they may not approve of?
It is perfectly OK for gay people to feel proud of their behaviours if they want to - but why should they feel a need to impose this pride on society as a whole?
That is precisely what is done at Gay Pride marches. Homosexuality is imposed on everyone. There is no room for dissent from approval of it.

I wouldn't agree with people marching against homosexuality in supposed "Shame" marches either as I believe that homosexuality should be tolerated.
However, whilst I do believe that homosexuality should be tolerated by society and state, I do not believe it should be illegal to express disapproval of homosexuality either.
