Heterosexual Pride Day

Well this is pretty interesting out of Brazil. According to the AP, Brazil's largest city has called for the creation of a Heterosexual Pride Day. Council members in Sao Paulo have approved the creation of the day and for it to be celebrated on the 3rd Sunday on December every year. According to the AP:

Sao Paulo Mayor Gilberto Kassab must sign the legislation for it to become law and has said only that he is studying it. His office declined Wednesday to say whether he supports the proposal.

The legislation's author, Carlos Apolinario, said the idea for a Heterosexual Pride Day is "not anti-gay but a protest against the privileges the gay community enjoys."

Not everyone likes the idea according to the AP.

The Brazilian Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Association criticized the legislation, saying it could provoke homophobic violence.

"How many LGBTs will be attacked because of the message that only heterosexuality makes someone a moral person and a good citizen," the association said in a statement.

"The celebration of heterosexual pride is inappropriate because it belittles the just cause of the LGBT community," the statement added. "Unlike homosexuals, heterosexuals are not discriminated against simply for being heterosexuals."

So wait, the gay community is trying to prevent straight people from having a parade? Isn't that discrimination?

This would never happen in the United States. Why? Political Correctness. However I'd love to see it because it would just be hilarious. What would the parade for straights look like? What events would be held? There are so many places to go with this.
