prettiestnblm:

“Straight couples” you see at pride could very well be

  • bi, pan, ace, aro, or literally any of the other sexualities that aren’t straight
  • you misgendering a trans, nonbinary, etc. person
  • friends. They can be friends who are also LGBT. People holding hands or being affectionate in public does not automatically make them romantically or sexually involved
  • parents or friends showing support by being there for their LGBT children or friends

So stop being assholes and leave people be
