June is chosen as Pride Month not just because of the Stonewall riot, but also due to the ancient Roman goddess of marriage, Juno, whose name the month is derived from. The symbolism of June being associated with weddings and marriage is used as a tool to challenge traditional sexual norms and redefine institutions like marriage. Pride month's goal of normalizing homosexuality has evolved into advocating for the blurring of gender lines, influenced by feminist ideology claiming that men and women are interchangeable. Through the powerful symbolism of June, pride month sparks societal conversations on fundamental political units like marriage and the distinctions between genders.
