An online group's plans to organise a "straight" counterpart to Boston's annual LGBTQ Pride Parade has been met with criticism. Members of the organization, which calls itself Super Happy Fun America, say they want to "celebrate being heterosexual". They state on their website - "Straight people are an oppressed majority. We will fight for the right of straights everywhere to express pride in themselves without fear of judgement and hate. The day will come when straights will finally be included as equals among all of the other orientations." Stephen got the views of commentators David McNarry and Finola Meredith.
