This is not allowed.

Everyone knows which airline is "New York's Gayest".

Google it.

Why do companies love to celebrate this so much? I don’t ever remember a Straight Pride campaign. I’m not judging or criticizing, just getting tired of it being advertised like the latest trend that everyone should be forced to embrace.

The comments on Twitter are hilarious though. 99% find this inappropriate, and I seriously doubt it’s good for business.
Ask yourself this question: WHY would you want a straight pride campaign?

Are you upset with corporate celebrations associated with Black History month? Or Women’s history? United does those too.
It might be hard to avoid it in an airport.

I’m not upset at anyone, btw. I just don’t know why some companies think other people want to see that.... because most people don’t.

This is way different than Black or Women History.

I don’t. It sounds silly doesn’t it... people trying to advertise their sexual preferences on others and all...

Yeah this just seems weird and out of place. But, it is the the age of virtue signaling.

It’s almost as if heterosexuality and homosexuality have been treated differently throughout history 🤔

They haven’t been treated equally. That is correct.

The world is gonna come to an end cause a company throws a drag party. Almost like it came to an end during mardigras party or that time pilots wore a football tie to work. Sports and mardi gras were forced down my throat. Such a horrible world we live in. I dont watch football or go to Mardi Gras but oh well, the world will go on without me crying about what a company or individuals do. No one voices hate against those activities nor claims they are forced down their throat why? Cause they are done by a still oppressed group.

Meanwhile on the ramp in ewr, we landed :15 early and our gate was changed to an occupied gate and we ended up being :15 late. And yes had to call for Ramp crew, and a jetway driver. I’m not against a drag show. It’s not for me but let’s focus on the airline operation a little here. Ewr is not improving. It’s seems like it’s getting worse.
