Quote:

An Idaho bar has opted to counter LGBTQ Pride Month by celebrating 'Heterosexual Awesomeness Month' during the month of June, saying that without them 'none of us would be here.'

Old State Saloon in Eagle, Idaho, which is just outside of Boise, announced this past Wednesday that each Monday would be 'Hetero Male Monday.'

Any man dressed 'like a heterosexual male' will be entitled to a free draught beer, according to a Facebook post from the bar.

In a subsequent comment, the bar also said it was seeking applicants to judge if male patrons that come on Mondays have straight enough clothing - who will be paid $15 an hour plus a free beer.

Not only that, but any straight couple that comes into the bar on Wednesdays will get 15 percent off their tab.

Quote:

The Facebook post got a mix of reactions, with some claiming that the bar is bigoted against LGBTQ people and others commending the bar owners for doing something 'so bold.'

Jenna Nash commented below the bar's post, taking issue with the idea of 'Hetero Male Monday.'

'Every day is hetero day. They're not a marginalized group, they're the norm. I don't care if you are glad you're straight but pointing out your hetersexuality [sic] during gay pride month is an affront, is othering and creates separation and discord,' she wrote.

Quote:

The bar also posted again on Saturday, saying it wouldn't back down.

'We hear lots of people are upset about Heterosexual Awesomeness Month! Please know: 1) We love our LGBTQ+ patrons! 2) We will not be changing our mind and give into the group of those who are responding with vitriol. 3) ALL are welcome to come celebrate heterosexuality with us in June!' the post read.

The post added that the bar would be doing all day happy hour prices for straight females on Thursdays, and that T-shirts commemorating heterosexuals would be coming soon.

I should order one of his T-shirts just to poke the bears too.

July will be "White people are Ok" month. I expect them to get firebombed after a stunt like that.

If that's an affront, then what's celebrating gay pride during the month dedicated to devotion to the sacred heart of Jesus?

Are black people allowed in Idaho if they don't play for Boise St.?

WTF is "othering"? Yet another leftist made up term.

And the sheer hypocrisy of calling this "separatist and causing discord". Holy ***** Everything gays and their allies do has already caused separatism and discord because they won't STFU about their sexual preference. Never mind their buddies in the trans community who are into grooming and mutilating children.

That doesn't cause discord at all.

This is great! Wish more establishments would do this right in the face of this insane pride month.

Exactly. They can dish it out but can't take.


When it comes to their point of view they insist on inclusion. A courtesy they don't afford anyone else's
point of view.

"Every day is hetero day"

Did I miss all the hetero pride merch and parades and ****? Oh, we're, "normal"? I thought being LGBTQABCDEFG was perfectly "normal," so is it not anymore?

I know we joke about things like this, but the federal government has been flooding rural areas that were previously lily-white with all manner of third worlders.

I dated a relative of the owner of that bar and she invited me to go get get a beer there tonight. Not sure I want to fight the massive crowd that will be there, but could be fun.

That guy also had an AK47 giveaway as a prize for a conspiracy theory trivia contest recently. His place is growing a huge following out here, which isn't surprising, and often has conservative speakers and church gatherings at his place. People in the treasure valley are fighting back big time against all this ***** Boise is more liberal than id like, but the surrounding areas are going more red everyday, especially with the huge influx of conservative Californians. His bar is in eagle, an upscale neighboring city and often labelled eaglefornia, but they are strongly conservative in population.

Cool, if you go ask them if they'll be selling their T-shirts online please. I'll order one if they do.

Yep. Boise is the whitest city I've ever been to, and the surrounding areas are even whiter until you get to the agrarian towns, which skews more Mexican. It's also one of the cleanest and safest cities of its size you will find. Not sure there's a correlation there...

Ive seen 3 or 4. They're out there. A lot of Mexicans though. They work a hell of a lot harder than the lazy white idiots I try to get to do work at my place. No one is willing to work, so I'm considering driving to neighboring caldwell to pick up some Mexicans who are actually wanting work.

Well it looks like Madman was right...

They've already had vandalism, lost venders, cancellations of gigs, and the owner has been accused of being a sex offender. Seems like the playbook is opening up on them, even here...

"Since we announced Hetero Awesomeness Month we've had some significant backlash: theft of our property, vendors refusing to fulfill our orders for ingredients, wedding catering cancelation, libel, slander - even the owner being falsely accused of being a sex offender!" the owners wrote. "But, to the credit of the community that is rational and reasonable, we've also received so much support from like-minded people who want to celebrate 'Heterosexual Awesomeness Month' with us, and get the concept of it as being about freedom and being true to our personal values."

Yep. I live in Meridian. My wife is Asian and she is the only non white person in the entire neighborhood. Idaho is the whitest place I have ever lived.

Oh yes, meridian is whiter than boise. Im west boise, next to the village, which is basically meridian. It's the same with my neighborhood, except no asian wife to skew the demographics. Im half Mexican, so I represent the entire diversity here.

The LGBTQ+ community sure isn't marginalized as they're trying to shove themselves into our faces (literally and figuratively) 24 hours a day.

Agreed, we're on the same side amigo. I just bolded their hypocrisy.

Why is there any need to celebrate people based on where they like to put their junk?

I'd say a blue field with a single white star and a single white stripe above a single red stripe.

Well then, assuming your TexAg's name says something about your profession, I guess we have two things in common then. MD that is.
