    I mean, I guess depending on context? This really isn’t about static titles though. Like, nobody fought for straight people to be allowed to exist. Even in our modern age gays are still executed for being themselves. It’s understandably offensive if someone is like “I want to show pride too!” if the thing you’re proud of is winning the right to openly exist and the thing they’re proud of is… being the more socially accepted and advantaged class?

    It’s not a perfect comparison but it’s almost like if a rich person wanted a trophy for being rich because the lower class just got a trophy for surviving being poor.
