Gay pride in other months

Until recently gay pride was also celebrated in November in SC. I don't know why. I just know I performed at a Gay Pride Festival Brunch right after Halloween a few years ago. Trixie Bizarre (talk) 23:01, 2 June 2021 (UTC)

Yes, it would be interesting if someone could find a suitable source for when and how the notion of a "Pride Month" became established, rather than different pride events happening on different dates throughout the year. It is certainly not a worldwide phenomenon (contrary to many US websites who don't bother to check), and the article currently just says it "occurs", as though it's a force of nature. Was Clinton's declaration in 1999 based on an existing concept promoted by US pride groups? - IMSoP (talk) 15:35, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

I think Pride month should have its own article

I think pride month should have its own article because it isn’t exclusively a gay thing anymore.CycoMa (talk) 03:02, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

Origin of Term Pride Edit Request

I wanted to request a particular edition to the article discussing "Gay Pride" I wanted to ask if it's possible to include the origin of Pride used in 1967 after the Black Cat police raid and subsequent demonstration from 1967 in Los Angeles. The organization formed at the time was called P.R.I.D.E.(Personal Rights in Defense and Education) and thought it would be appropriate to add that to the article since PRIDE is not first encountered at Stonewall. Pzappia (talk) 21:50, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

 Not done: That certainly isn't impossible, but that would require consensus. For future reference, edit requests are designed for editors to explicitly ask other editors to insert or modify material (e.g "please change Mickeal Jackson to Michael Jackson); not a general request to add content to an article.

Gay pridePride (LGBT) – As several editors noted in the previous discussion, the WP:COMMONNAME today is simply "Pride". ;; Maddy ♥︎(they/she)♥︎ :: talk  18:52, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

  • Support LGBT pride instead. SWinxy (talk) 23:45, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
  • Support Pride (LGBT+) (with reservations) I believe that Queer Pride, or Pride (Queer) would make more sense in the long run. The reason being that no matter how many letters we add to LGBTQIA+, this discussion will always be evolving. Queer is an independent, inclusive, term that that is not connected to any one sexuality, gender or attraction. As someone who does not identify as LGBT, but does identify as Queer, I feel that the cause of Pride and been bogged down by the lack of a single unifying term. It's nauseating to have to spell and say LGBTQ+ every time in conversation, and since the derogatory connotation behind Queer has been effectively eliminated, this is what feels most progressive to me. But alas, that is just my two cents.
DashJustice (talk) 00:43, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
Queer is still less common per WP:COMMONNAME, even though it’s also my personal preference. Also, using “queer” as a homophobic/barely re-appropriated term wasn’t that long ago, relatively speaking, and still might be distasteful or “vulgar” (per above) to older readers/users.

Giant criticism section

I get that this is a controversial subject and criticism should be mentioned, but fringe should not be over represented and the main article for gay pride should not be overwhelmed with these fringe views in opposition to it without some balance. overall, the section seems pointless at times and over bearing in detail. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.27.204.252 (talkcontribs) 05:53, 9 February 2022 (UTC)

Which parts/sources do you think are fringe/undue weight? Dronebogus (talk) 13:17, 18 August 2022 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 2 March 2023

change “cable TV station” (first paragraph) to “cable TV channel” or “cable TV network”. A station is a physical location that broadcasts, the link goes to an article about a channel (actually a network that exists over different channels in different countries). 2600:1010:B1AC:30E6:C96C:7A1B:A888:9A56 (talk) 01:48, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

LGBTI+

Essa é uma das siglas mais aceitas. LGBT não representa toda a diversidade. 2804:214:8629:82D9:1:0:B18E:4895 (talk) 11:57, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

Pride and Protest

Having a long and proud history of protesting against the powerful, Pride should have some common ground with the like-minded groups. So, instead of taking corporate money, they might have supported the right of groups protesting against powerful people.

Given Just Stop Oil events, would not a section on Pride and Protester be useful and of interest? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.24.196.97 (talk) 07:30, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

Pride Terminology origins

The sources that Brenda Howard, Robert A. Martin, and L. Craig Schoonmaker had anything to do with the word "pride" are quite dodgy or non-existent. It looks like Howard had less to do with the use of the word pride and seem she may have been more about being one of the founders of Christopher Street Liberation Day. Are there more reliable sources and details for the claim they had anything to do with inventing or popularizing the word "Pride"? Myotus (talk) 18:19, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
