Straight pride

Straight pride is a reactionary slogan that emerged in the 1980s and early 1990s; primarily used by social conservatives as political stance and response to "gay pride", a slogan adopted by various groups (later united under the moniker LGBT) in the early 1970s.

Incidents of backlash against straight pride events have generated controversy and media attention. School policies and court decisions regarding freedom of expression have drawn particular attention to straight pride, spotlighting individuals protesting school expressions against harassment of LGBTQ adolescents.
