January 1, Pride Month Faces Massive Backlash

Published

on

Throughout this year’s “Pride Month”, there has been an increase in public pushback against the promotion of LGBTQ-related content and policies in schools. This includes student-led protests, parents withdrawing their children from schools, and increasing opposition to policies on sexual orientation and gender identity.

At Marshall Simonds Middle School in Massachusetts, students reportedly protested a “Pride Month” event, tearing down LGBTQ “Pride” signs and banners. The Equity Coalition, an LGBTQ advocacy group, responded by urging the school district to discipline those involved. In Edison High School in California, students voiced their objection to a “Pride” video shown in a math class. Elsewhere in California, parents held their children out of Saticoy Elementary School in North Hollywood in protest of a planned “Pride Day”.

Parents have been vocal about their frustration with LGBTQ-themed curriculum and policies. In Connecticut, parents expressed anger after their children were shown a video on gender identity and were given “puberty kits” without parental knowledge. As a result, some parents decided to remove their children from the school district. In Ottawa, Canada, a diverse group of parents and children protested a school board’s mandate on gender-neutral pronouns.

This opposition extends to sports, with Gallup data showing a rise in the number of Americans who believe that participation in organized sports should be based on biological sex rather than gender identity. The poll revealed that 69% of Americans now believe transgender athletes should only compete on sports teams that match their birth gender, up from 62% in 2021.

The widespread discontent is also evident in legal challenges. The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty is urging the U.S. Department of Education to investigate a high school in Wisconsin’s Sun Prairie Area School District where an 18-year-old biological male who identified as transgender used a girls’ locker room. Earlier, a Vermont school district was ordered to pay $125,000 in damages and attorney fees for punishing a father and daughter who spoke out about a similar incident.

This rising resistance suggests a shift in public sentiment and a growing challenge to policies that were once primarily focused on “equality” and “live and let live”. As more parents and students stand up against what they perceive as overreach, this issue promises to remain contentious in the coming months and years.

    Enough is enough. If people want to lead a transgender life so be it, but please do it in private. We do not want to hear about it or have our kids hear about it. We don’t publish our sex life so why should you? Do what you want, but allow us the same privilege.

      Leave the CHILDREN ALONE. This age age bracket 12 to 18 are confused enough without schools, individual states to make life anymore difficul. Developmental Psychologist Erik Erickson’s 5th Stage of development is 5: Identity vs. Confusion. This is a private matter between child and parent

      Well stated, without name calling or sarcasm. I know what the LGBTQWXYZ+ crowd objective is, but what is the objective of the people in government roles? Why are the schools and federal and state government getting out of all this?

    This is the Democratic Party. This stupidly has been going on for a long time. They continue to push. This is being done to separate everyone into groups and turn against each other. The alphabet people are the ones shooting up schools and nightclubs and everything else. These people are mentally ill. They have come too far to back down now. It’s going to get ugly and this is what they want. The government will come in to stop what is just simmering now. And the government will do this with lockdowns and restrictions and jack booted thugs.

      Agree. I call democrats the Party of Satan. They’re antiGod, antiTruth and antiAmerican. IMO they are as mentally ill as these trans people. But they are just pushing this idiocy to gain more power over the people.

    Most parades if you think about it celebrate and honor people of all walks of life Veterans, Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, Christmas, or National sports teams breast cancer, So why is it so special to celebrate just certain a life style for just certain individual?

      Nature came up with it’s own cure for unnatural sex
      It’s called HIV or AIDS
      That was what nature says about lgbt or gay
      I realize some people can’t help how they are born but there is no need to celebrate it for a month
      I’m certain we didn’t have polio month in the 50’s
      What month is heterosexual month

    I’m old enough to remember when being gay was the latest big thing. They too were in your face about it constantly. I don’t care if you’re trans or gay. Just stay out of my face. Life whatever life you want just don’t make me see it 100 times a day.
