I see your point here. Personally I think anti lgbt+ persists because society allows it to in some places. And parents don't correct their children when they pick up hateful language at school or online.
It's sad that the hate is passed on really. Daily I heard unthinkable things like "faggot" "gay" "what are you gay" "tranie" "lesbo" all sorts of things when on the bus for school. Not very good for the self esteem of a young lgbt+ kid like me. Let alone someone that might be more sensitive then I am as well as the physical things happening to others on the bus. If anything I can ignorantly hope my new school will be better. And people wonder why we still have parades? haha.
Honestly, the people who bitch about the parades must be the most dull, insensitive people there are. I don't even care if they're queer as well; just stop shitting on what is a pinnacle moment to others. Just because you can't sit down and let some marginalized people be happy for a day isn't anyone's problem but yours.
But I hope things get better for you. I'm not sure how old you are but I'll assume high school if people are using language like that. I used to be terrified of being queer in high school and I covered it up by playing sleazy and sleeping around with guys. It wasn't until I graduated that I became a loud and proud lesbian because I finally broke free from oppressing people. If you haven't already, you'll definitely find your way someday, just let the monkeys go at it.
Yeah idk what their problem is ig sometimes people can be provocative but in this day and age I don't think it really matters. With kids on phones as babies and 5 year olds stumbling across kinky porn sites on their tablets and cell phones: It's all about what their parents want them to see or care to sensor.
And yeah I do hope it gets better at my new school. And yes I am in high school. (But a lot of language like that not the worst stuff but pretty bad stuff for kids like using "gay" and "lesbo" I've heard since elementary school. They learn by example and it's sad.) I did go to my orientation yesterday for my new school and it seems way more friendly to lgbt+ people. They briefly mentioned an lgbt+ and gender identity club.
PS I'm sorry you had a highschool experience like that. But I'm glad you are happy now.

That's exactly how it is. People get it in their heads that certain groups are "wrong", and then those sentiments are passed on.
In the future, I can only hope for those feelings to be grandfathered out in lieu of, at least, basic human acceptance.
