June is coming to an end, which means Pride month is too… but there’s still time to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community and its individuals, defend equal rights, reject discrimination, and support the right for every individual to live the life they are and love the way they wish. It’s celebrated annually in June in honor of the Stonewall riots, which took place in New York City in June 1969.
You can tell your LGBTQ+ friends and family members how much you love them, maybe do some activism, join the community, attend a workshop or symposium, or simply put a rainbow sticker on your laptop, and most importantly, have fun! Same as we bet the people who made the pride signs featured on our list did.
What’s not addressed enough about the LGBTQ+ community is how hysterically funny its people are. Just take a closer look at the funny pride signs and posters of Pride parade participants. Below, we selected some of the wittiest ones for you to chuckle at and spread that feel-good vibe to you!

Could Be A Phase
well, life can be considered a phase, so yes, absolutely. Seriously, love the sign. Even my kids know that sexual orientation is not "just a phase".
Yes, he's just like my gay brother who died last year at 88. He was with his partner for 60 yrs.
I love the fact that he got sponsored by the Company that made his sign lol
Many LGBT+ kids (and adults) are you that's them being gay/bi/aroace/trans is not valid, and nothing more than a phase
Load More Replies...Definitely The Best Sign
Off topic I know but I saw one for black lives matter carried by a white woman that said...I can't know what it is to go through what you do but I can still stand beside you.
Correct me if I’m wrong but I think you guys are hating on someone because of their skin, color, orientation and gender. And I know that a black bi woman has it worse than a straight white guy but a straight white guy can still be supportive and not have to bi or gay. They don’t choose to be straight or white or male as much as you don’t choose to be gay or black or female.
Even he knows that what we are going through is bad

Just letting anyone who needs to hear it know- if God made us in his image, how could he hate gay people? Not all Christians are against you.
You! You’re the best kind of Christian. (They need more like you) <3

Pride Events: a Proud Part of Our History
Since the pandemic has finally taken a step back with hopes it won’t return, Pride events return to many cities around the world for June. Celebrations and parades with gay pride signs filled the streets in some countries, but the moods were not bright everywhere, to say the least.
New York's first Pride March, then called the Christopher Street Liberation Day March, was held in 1970 to mark the first anniversary of the Stonewall Rebellion, a spontaneous street uprising triggered by a police raid on a gay bar in Manhattan. This Sunday, marchgoers lined the route through Manhattan, not just celebrating and parading their gay protest signs but also voicing their objection to the unprecedented turn in US human rights history.

I've never understood how you can fear something that does in no way interfere with you or your lifestyle. Has any straight person ever lost something because of gay people existing?
This isn't about fear. It's about hate. It should be called homomisia or homomisic instead. https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/-misia

From Sunday's Gay Pride Parade In Chicago
Female cop behind him is thinking - I'm not paid enough to deal with this b******t (the guys behind her not the guy in front of her)
If I ever meet that man I'd love to buy him a beer...or more likely wine I guess.
Buy him a free tap water and he'll take care of it!

I know right...if you're not careful she'll smile at you...or maybe even HUG you...the horror.
Load More Replies...Sure she looks cute here, but eventually she's going to need to use the bathroom and then society as we know it will fall apart. (/s, hopefully obviously!)
Well, she is self-confident, aware of who she is and how she wants to live, and she refuses to feel ashamed of being "different", so obviously for the media she is dangerous.
Just love her and this younger generation of lgbtq+ as a parent of such a child I feel blessed every dam DAY my first reaction as my husband was ok so what not like she knocking over homeless carts or banks!
Be careful— she’ll smile at you with her sheer adorableness.
this reminds me of something Gandhi said, "anger and intolerance are the enemies of correct understanding".
Gandhi himself had racist ideas though.
Load More Replies...On Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court decided to overturn Roe v. Wade, a 1973 landmark ruling that had secured constitutional protections for abortion in the country for nearly 50 years.
LGBT leaders fear the Supreme Court's decision endangers personal freedom beyond abortion rights. In a concurring opinion, Justice Clarence Thomas wrote that the court might reconsider other precedents, mentioning specifically rulings protecting the rights to contraception, same-sex intimacy, and gay marriage.
Best Sign I've Seen So Far
So true! Also, forced/arranged marriage? Hey, as long as it's between a male and a female, go ahead, but heaven forbid we let two loving same-sex partners sign a piece of paper..
Don't get me started on legal child marriage in the US.

Load More Replies...Pride is All About Freedom
Meanwhile, Lori Lightfoot, Chicago’s first openly gay mayor and the first Black woman to hold the office, called the ruling a "momentary setback" and said Sunday's events were "an opportunity for us to not only celebrate Pride but be resolved for the fight." She stated: "we will not live in a world, not in my city, where our rights are taken from us or rolled back."
"This march is going to have more of a serious tone than celebratory, and I don't think that's a bad thing at all," said Krystal Marx, executive director of Seattle Pride, which drew thousands of people carrying pride signs to its parade on Sunday.
Although these sorts of things shouldn’t be taken lightly, the best way to get someone’s attention is by wit. And these pride sign ideas on our list absolutely prove the point.

Load More Replies...Harry
Is this right? I've never read Harry Potter but isn't the author kind of bigoted?
well Harry Potter was forced to live in a closet below the stairs by his aunt's family (who cared for him, since his parents died) because he came from a magical family and was thus less worthy according to them.. that's the reason she has the sign. It has nothing to do with the author even if there is some critism against her. But even if the author is less than a decent person, she still made great books.

The bloke in the white and orange T-shirt ... "Jesus is the Judge". While he's wagging his finger and judging. He's an A$$hole and a hypocrite.
If you believe in the big book of stories Jesus didn't judge, he cared and accepted
Church protesters never thing of the "Judge not lest you be judged" they just judge everybody
I would respond. "Judge not lest ye be judged" was so important to Jesus as a basic principle of Christianity that it is included in three of the four gospels. Right now, you are sinning by judging me.
Funny exchange on the original post: batsofburden: people should go to their church events & start harassing them for not believing in zeus. [OP]: “Zeus hates raisins in potato salad!” batsofburden: is this from something? [OP] No just how I imagine my sign looking lol
I used to ask my college students if they thought the Greco/Roman gods and goddesses could be viable religion in the modern world. I'm in Florida, so I was prepared for the worst. Believe it or not, in all my years of teaching, I had one student who gave me a hard time. But she was just a b***h.

Honestly BoredPanda, did you just send censor the word sex? What in the world is happening with this website lately?

Get over yourself and stop promoting idiomatic censorship and actually take care of the trolls that spread real hate on the site instead. Your censorship of Of common words has really gone overboard.

It's also very common in nature among animals too. That's why I believe it's natural. No one conditions my birds into being gay. I used to breed birds and sometimes they just don't get along but sometimes you have a female or a male that will only live with the same sex or they will attack or unalive their partner.

you eating a donut while I'm dieting affects me a lot more than you marrying your same sex partner. I would totally feel tempted to get a donut if I saw someone enjoy one, diet or no diet.
Exactly. Your donut makes me want donut, but your marriage does not make me want a marriage.

I don't care enough to protest. Now let's address the sign at the forefront and center of the photo. The sign I believe to be the main subject of this document. I doubt the "FAT BEARISH" one would consent to such a thing. One word....RAPE. Oh and how 'bout a little body shame on the side. Said sexual offense would amount to no more than attempted when the bearish one simply and easily plucks off one arm of the sign carrier and beats him with it.

Hey guys, hope your place are full with rainbows over there. From your supportive straight friend ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
I think most homophobic men are afraid gay men might treat them the way they (the homophobes) treat women.
the amout of ace flags i saw in this made my entire f*****g week
I loved these! I was quite homophobic and transphobic as a child and never realized it. Looking back I see all the things I was taught that were so hateful and wrong. I also realized I'm queer!!! No matter who you are, you deserve rights and love and all this world can offer. Being gay is cool, being bi is cool, being trans is cool, being straight is cool, being non-binary is cool, being pan is cool- it's all cool! Okay, I'm cringing at my overuse of the word cool. Point is- please never be ashamed of who you are ❤🏳️🌈
