Brazil's Latest Festival: Heterosexual Pride Day

Get out your sports talk, crack open a can/bottle of beer and fire up the frustrations of your upcoming wedding that you didn't have to fight for since you are straight: HETEROSEXUAL PRIDE DAY IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER!!!

The Sao Paulo Council recently adopted a legistation for Heterosexual Pride Day to have its inaugural annual celebration in December (the 3rd Sunday of December: just in case you wanted to go ahead and clear your schedule.)

So why the day you might ask? Well, for one: I think that my heterosexuals have been wanting this for a while ... you know: the ones that kind of complain that "Why Is There A Gay Pride and not a straight one?" Of course, most are joking (others aren't which is a bit disturbing) but I dont think that straight people had to worry about horrendous treatment by society and having to go to bars to worry about being arrested.

Also, the funny thing about this is the REASONING for Heterosexual Pride Day as one counsilman put it as: ""not anti-gay, but a protest against the privileges the gay community enjoys.""

You can check out more info of the Legislation and even the concerns from The Brazilian LGBT Association by clicking here .... after you buy your tickets to Brazil of course ;)
