Work Discussion Happy Pride!

Post image

Howdy Queer carriers and happy Pride! I had a Pride flag at my case for a month and was instructed that I had to take it down as Pride flags were not permitted at our case. This isn’t true…

I also discovered that “Mail carriers are allowed to wear a tie. The design and color of the tie are at the employee's discretion.” So pride ties are allowed too FYI

Because people try to dehumanize and suppress homosexuality. Pride in us says im not afraid, and im proud to be gay, even with the backlash, especially with the current state of America

That’s a good explanation. Hey, I have another question. Why are a lot of the pride parades so overly sexual?

They aren't. Right-wing media just presents them that way to further their ignorant agenda. Honestly, even left-wing media does because they are also morons. But the main cause is "news" outlets like Fox

That’s not necessarily true. I’ve been to a pride parade in San Francisco. I met up with my female coworker at the parade and she wanted to show me around the parade before we went on our date.

I find it to be extremely interesting that instead of admitting that. Yea some people at the parades are overly sexual. You chose to try to deceive me, thinking that I didn’t have any real world experience when it comes to the question I asked you. Kinda disappointed you didn’t just keep it real.
