gay pride

Happy Pride! Unfortunately this year won't be the same given the current state of destruction that our world is in, but that doesn't mean we can't celebrate in our own homes and make fun of brands' cringey attempts to appear that they care about the LGBTQ+ community! 

Lil Nas X, of "Old Town Road" and "Panini" fame, came out as gay in a series of cryptic messages on the last day of Pride month. The genre-defying rapper tweeted last night that people should listen more closely to "C7osure." The lyrics are decidedly bent on living ones truth, and make a whole lot of sense now that the rapper has opened up about his sexuality.

"Ain't no more actin', man that forecast say I should just let me grow
No more red light for me, baby, only green, I gotta go
Pack my past up in the back, oh, let my future take a hold
This is what I gotta do, can't be regretting when I'm old"

In addition to demystifying the lyrics of "C7osure," Lil Nas X pointed out the cover artwork for his EP "7" in a tweet that reads "deadass thought i made it obvious." The rainbow-centric artwork makes a lot of sense now. 

The response to the liberating announcement has been overwhelmingly positive, with fans and allies tweeting enthusiastic support for Lil Nas X. People are even roasting anyone that would have an issue with his coming out. We're 100% with the star and can't wait to see how he continues to be a walking argument for individuality. 

If you've been living under a rock for the past few years, then you may not have noticed large corporations and their tendencies to adorn absolutely everything in their power with rainbows and sparkles during Pride month. 

These brands are being criticized for only hopping on the marriage-equality wagon after strong evidence that it helps to sell more products. Aside from that, the move is just straight-up cringey and kind of reminds us of the "How Do You Do, Fellow Kids" meme.

Dating apps always manage to provide us with the most awkward, hilarious material. These Grindr messages certainly won't fail to make you cringe!

Coming out can be a stressful process, but it can be made even more complicated when the people closest to you aren't very accepting. This can especially be the case in college frats, where brothers are expected to hook up with a lot of women. In honor of Pride Month, These guys are telling all about their experiences with being gay and living in a frat - some might surprise you!
