Honestly, if done without any hate to LGBTQ+, I’m all for it. We need a nice hetero representation, and hetero relationships are beautiful. This does include trans people forming hetero couples, and hetero-demi-/asexuals, and many more, so it can even intersect with LGBTQ+ in some cases.
All relationships and sexualities are beautiful, and hetero ones are no exception.
Yeah, I’d say, if hetero people need an excuse to have fun and celebrate something, I’m all for it. But I have a sneaky suspicion that this is going just going to be used as a hatefest towards LGBTQ+ people instead. I would love to be proven wrong but I have a feeling that straight cis people who are open minded and accepting and not bigots, aren’t the ones who feel the need to go “what about straight pride / international men’s day?” whenever anyone else gets a bit of attention.
the point of pride is it’s about visibility: relationships in pop culture are almost entirely hetero… you just don’t see queer relationships at the ratio they exist in society… pride is all about celebrating the existence of queer existence and our relationships and culture
if you add similar things for heterosexuals, it’s saying “we have everything most of the time and this 1 time where you’re seen, we want to be part of that as well”… or worse, want to draw attention away from it by being bigger

But I doubt it’ll be done this way.
