June is designated as Pride Month for the LGBTQ+ community. That is fine as far as it goes, but they are barking up the wrong tree.
What I believe flies in the face of anyone having a pride month for what group they belong to because collective pride is empty and meaningless.
The near innumerable intersectional range of different groups or categories that each individual belongs to is interesting, and is their initial identity source, but, only individual pride or healthy self-esteem grounded in what one has achieved as an individuators, that is real pride, the only one that counts.
