Pride and Queer Sexuality

For years, i've that we aren't just our irotic identities. Being free to signal your sexuality out in the open is the entire point of pride. It should be no surprise that many queer folks find their sex lives and their sive community to be intertwined. The idea that if you look at a gay person shirtless, that's dangerous to a kid? That's the same underlying motivation that fuels all this grimmer discourse. And it's really frustrating, because indication of sexuality in a non vanilla sense, while in public, is not a violation of consent.
