The diversity of the world is what makes it so beautiful. Life would be so boring if everywhere we went people looked, sounded, and thought the same. These differences that make the world so great should be celebrated instead of hated. Unfortunately, there are many ignorant people in the world who can’t seem to understand that our differences are a good thing! But there are always people willing and ready to push back. We’ve made a list of some funny times when people have come out and fought back against homophobes! Sit back, scroll through the list, and enjoy!
The Babadook
We don’t know how this rumor started, but some time after the film The Babadook was released, the terrifying character was adopted by the LGBT community. And ever since, it has been popping up at pride festivals all over the world. We think it’s hilarious! And hey, the movie was horrifying. Maybe these scary posters will help to scare off any homophobes that may want to come and stir up some trouble.
Anyone who came across the Babadook would probably quickly change their mind about saying some homophobic things. You would not want them showing up in your home. You would never sleep again!
Figs
Whenever you see a pride event happening, there are always protestors nearby with signs saying some very disgusting and hurtful things. This guy is taking a fun dig at those people. And to be honest, if God does hate figs, we can’t blame him. Those things are not good at all. It would be great to see the funny signs at pride put into a book. We would definitely buy that!
We would hang out with this guy if we met him. The world needs more good people with good hearts. This guy gives off the vibe that he is one of those types of people.
Be Free
Eating garbage probably isn’t the best advice to give people, but everything else seems great. This is just this person’s way of saying to go out and live your life. Rules exist, but you don’t have to necessarily follow them. Life is short. Why would you want to restrict yourself for any reason? You should just spend your life being who you want, doing what you want, and not listening to anyone else.
This person has the right idea! This life is all about going out and living the life that you want to live. This is a sign that truly deserves to be at pride!
Cher
Cher is one of the most famous musical artists alive. She has been making hit songs since the 60s and 70s! She has also been a big supporter of the LGBT community. It’s no surprise that someone would have a sign featuring her. Wherever this event was, we’re sure that her music was playing through the speakers! And the message on the sign is correct. We should be sharing the love.
The LGBTQ community is full of open-minded people. Despite that, they are constantly hit with so much hatred from other people. Maybe those people need to see this sign and let it sink in.
Techno Music
Music is all about freedom and personal expression. It makes sense that these people would be in support of the LGBTQ community. We would love to see a homophobe come up against all these people. As for the techno, we can’t think of a better soundtrack to a loud party that’s about celebrating life. There is no room for hate in rap, country, pop, and techno. Music is for everyone.
It’s always good to see that there is support for the LGBTQ community in so many different places. It shows you that there are still some good people out there!
Hooch
These signs are awesome! A little alcohol will always make things better. And how could you possibly have a party without glitter? These two men are clearly there to have a good time and make sure that the homophobes know that they are not welcome. We’re sure that they took so many photos with people wanting to see their signs. Hopefully, their message stuck with some people and was able to change them.
This is what you like to see! Look at those smiles! These people know that they are clearly on the right side of the fight. They look like they are having a great time.
So Accurate
This sign is giving off the energy that so many people feel so often. When you hear the stupid things that homophobes spout, it’s hard to figure out where to even start. They are so close-minded that most of them are just lost causes. And that’s their fault. As for everyone else, they are going to move on and enjoy celebrating all the differences that make us great. The homophobes can have one another!
This sign is genuinely perfect. It gets right to the point. Anyone who has ever felt this way will be able to relate to it so much. we’re glad someone got a photo of it!
Woke
This is a really good sign. So many people are against the word ‘woke’ when all it refers to is treating people with respect. And this person made the perfect sign when she decided to use sleeping beauty. We just hope that everyone that saw it was able to understand that it was sleeping beauty and snot some random cartoon character. This is one of those signs you would to get a photo with.
We’d like to think that sleeping beauty would be in support of the LGBTQ community. She knows a lot about being mistreated, so she could relate to a lot of people in the LGBTQ community.
Afuera
We love this sign! For those who don’t know, the word “afuera” means outside in Spanish. And we would have to agree with this guy holding the sign that Trump should have been put outside. We would have been right behind whoever took this photo to get one of our own. As for the woman in the photo, she’s from Family Guy. If you haven’t seen her in the show, please check that out.
Sometimes you have to use cartoons to get your point across. We’ve seen that twice so far, and there is nothing wrong with that. Do whatever it takes to make homophobes know they aren’t welcomed.
They Do
Yet another simple and effective sign. Some chicks do marry chicks. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. If that bothers you, then you are the problem, not the two women who love one another. Some men marry women, and some men marry men. There’s nothing wrong with either of those. Love is love and it is all beautiful. We need more love and less tearing people apart in this world.
We’re not sure who she is showing this sign to, but we do hope that they responded with a smile, wave, or even a supportive honk of her car horn!
You Sure There?
This quote gets said so often, and it’s so true. Why are people so bothered by someone’s genitals? If you are so interested in them, maybe there is some soul searching you need to do about yourself. People know who they are. They aren’t trying to trick anyone or play any sort of games. Keep your thoughts, and your hands, to yourself. Let people live their lives how they want. You go live yours!
The person holding the sign hit the nail on the head with this one. Just leave people alone and let them do as they please. They aren’t hurting anyone by living in their truth!
Covfefe
It seemed like we were never going to hear the end of the “Covfefe” thing when Trump tweeted that. We will admit that it was funny, but it was everywhere! It’s no surprise that it is here on a sign at a pride event. And what makes this sign so great, is that the sign’s message is spot on! You must have a small and fragile ego to hate on people.
This sign probably hit some people that saw it right in the chest! Only a hateful person would try their hardest to make people feel low. Everyone deserves rights, and everyone deserves respect.
Nada
Once again, a simple sign gets right down to the point! People will use the bible and religion all the time to justify their hatred for others. They think that it backs them up and makes how they think and feel ok. We can’t and won’t speak for Jesus, but it would be hard to imagine that he would be so happy to see so many people hating one another.
We can’t imagine this guy had an easy day. We’re sure there were probably plenty of protestors who came out and tried to prove him wrong. Let’s hope he ignored them.
Glitter
This is brilliant because it’s true. Being gay isn’t a choice. It isn’t something you wake up and decide. It’s part of who you are. And glitter never goes away either. No matter how much you try to brush it off or get rid of it, that glitter is there to stay. We wouldn’t mind hanging out with these guys. They look like they are having the time of their lives out there!
Even though this sign is silly, it’s also powerful. It’s important that people know that LGBTQ people aren’t putting on an act. They are just being who they truly are!
Read the Bible
It’s funny how some people who are against the queer community are willing to overlook parts of the bible. If we followed the Bible word for word we would be living in a very strict and boring world. Luckily, we aren’t living our lives like that. We’d love to see the response from someone who constantly uses the bible to justify their treatment of others. We’re sure that they would stumble over their words.
We are going to remember this just in case we come across anyone who is spouting hatred and disrespect in the name of the Bible. We’ll be able to shut them down with this one.
Family Is Family
How can you see a photo like this and think that these two men shouldn’t be together? They look like a nice family. And if that little girl’s sign is any indication, she is clearly happy and healthy. How could you think that anything is wrong with this? We’ll never understand the hatred that people have brewing inside them. Luckily, there will also be supportive people who are fighting against that hatred.
These look like loving and caring dads. They should be able to be a family just like anyone else in the country. If you have a problem with this, then the real problem is you!
So True
This sign really says it all. If there is something that you don’t like, then don’t pay attention to it! It’s as simple as that. If you have a problem with same-sex marriages, then don’t get married to someone that’s the same sex as you! How is that so hard to understand? There are people that don’t like sports. It would make sense if they didn’t pay attention to sports!
A sign like this needs to be on billboards in every city. Maybe then the people against gay marriage and equal rights would start to understand why they sound so stupid.
Born That Way
There won’t be a sign any more truthful than this one. It gets right to the point. People choose to follow a religion. For those people who are part of the LGBTQ community, it is not something they have chosen; it is who they are. But this argument goes in one ear and out the other for some people. But it should keep being said until those bad people can’t forget it.
So many arguments and disputes could be put aside if we all just respected one another. It really is that simple. But for some reason, people can’t seem to figure it out.
The Girl Rocks
The little girl in this photo is going places in life! She’s young and already a good ally to the LGBTQ community. When she gets older, she will be so happy that her parents put her on the right path. And as for the sign, it doesn’t get much better than that. It just shows that you don’t have to be part of the LGBTQ community to understand why it’s important to support one another.
We really hope that there are kids all over the world who are happy to support the LGBTQ community. If they get started young, they will continue to do it as they get older.
Calendar
There is nothing wrong with being yourself every day of the week, but at some point, you need to eat, so why not have a day for food! You can never go wrong with tacos. We’re sure some homophobes saw this poster and absolutely hated it. They already think there is a hidden agenda to force queer characters into shows and movies, but this is what the real agenda looks like!
If this calendar was made by us, we would have tacos on multiple days. But hey, there is nothing wrong with this one. As long as people are being themselves, that is all that matters.
He Did
There is some truth to this guy’s poster. Jesus was known to spend most of his time with the poor and downtrodden. He was much closer to those the social outcasts than the people at the top of the pecking order. It’s important that people see signs like this. Not only to get some truth about Jesus but to also know that it’s ok to be kind to people of all backgrounds.
Sometimes the outcasts of society are the best people to hang out with. They have the best stories, the best parties, and they are usually just more fun to be with.
Truthful
We love a sign that is both so truthful and funny! It’s always amazing how people can turn pop culture things into quirky little signs. But yes, we agree that people shouldn’t have to live in the closet. People do so because they fear the repercussions that can come with living your life how you want. Signs like these let people know that there are supportive people in this world.
If more people can see that there is more love than hate waiting for them outside of the closet, then we imagine that more people would be comfortable with coming out of the closet.
Brave
We aren’t sure we can begin to speak about just how brave the priest in this photo is. IT takes a massive amount of courage for anyone to back the LGBTQ community, but for a priest to do it, that’s huge. But what the sign says is absolutely correct. There are Christians all over this world who are gay. Acting like there aren’t, and acting like religion allows you to mistreat them, is insane.
This priest is a real Christian. He is the type of person you would want preaching to you each Sunday. The world could do with a few more priests who think like this guy.
Two Dads
Well, he’s not lying. There is God and Joseph, so it is true that Jesus has two dads. If that’s the case, then why don’t the hateful religious people ever talk about that? In all honesty, a child raised by a mom and a dad, or a dad and a dad, isn’t different. What matters is that kid is brought up knowing how to love and respect others for their differences.
This is a funny sign. We’re sure that there were quite a few people who were really upset when they saw it. Oh well, that’s their problem. They shouldn’t be bigots.
Cute
You can’t argue with this! Look at this guy. He looks so happy and carefree. How could you possibly hate him, and people like him? Anyone who is against anyone that is part of the LGBTQ community probably hasn’t someone who is gay. There were probably plenty of people in the crowd who were absolutely raging at seeing this sign. IT takes their hatred and makes it trivial. We love it though.
Once again, the gays have come through with another hard to argue statement. This one could be taken all the way to the supreme court. That’s how good it is.
Neat
For starters, we’re going to applaud this guy for just how neat and colorful this sign is. There is just no way that we would be able to make a sign this nice. Secondly, he has a good point. People wake up every single day and decide that they are going to mistreat, hate and take their anger out on innocent people. Why should they be allowed to marry freely, and gay people aren’t?
We really need to get in contact with these people who are making the signs. They are so talented and creative. If one of you sees this, give us a call.
Blame The Straights
Whoever made this sign has made a good point. People always want to blame gays for doing this and that, but if they stopped and looked in the mirror, they would see that they are the real issue. Obviously, there are great straight people out there, but this joke probably rubbed some of them the wrong way, as it should. Even though it’s humorous, we hope this sign has made people think differently.
Usually, these types of boards have prices and other things on them, but this restaurant decided to stand up for the queer community. That’s extremely brave and nice of them. We’d love to go there!
Over Eight Decades
We love seeing old people out and supporting causes. This elderly man puts all that silly talk about how being gay is a phase to bed. He’s nearly 93 years old, and he knows that he has been gay for each one of those years. Nothing about that is a phase. Maybe if those people that disagree would listen to people like this, then they would understand. But listening isn’t one of their skills.
This old man is awesome. He looks like someone who is probably just full of great stories from all of his years of life. We really wish we could have the chance to meet him.
Trump
Sometimes you just have to tip your hat to people. This sign is simple, easy to understand, and so effective. We’re sure even those Trump supporters had to laugh at this one. It’s so perfectly written. But the real thing to take away from this is that there are people out there that are going to dislike you for who you are. Do not listen to them. Do not pay attention to them.
We would invite this dude out for some drinks. Anyone creating a sign like this one is someone we’d like to know. This sign is going to stick with us for a while.
He Approves
It’s so funny how every state has multiple dudes that look like the typical depiction of Jesus. Here we see one stepping in to play the role of Jesus and say that he is fine with people being gay. We absolutely love this guy. It’s not a sin to be who you are, but it is a sin to be hateful and judge others. This fake Jesus and his sign are alright with us.
We wish we knew a fake Jesus. We’d invite him to go everywhere with us. That would be hilarious. We can imagine so many people wanting to take pictures with him.
Dogs
If even dogs, who do not know what it means to be gay, can support gay people, then what is stopping everyone else? That should be enough embarrassment for anyone to change their mind. In all seriousness, this photo is very cute. And that dog seems to be enjoying itself. We’re sure it was the belle of the ball all day at that festival. He’s an LGBTQ ally icon in our opinion.
Animals are always the best. They are loving no matter what. That is hands down their best quality. There is a lot that people could learn from some of their pets.
Queen Beyonce
No matter where you go in this world, there is always going to be a Beyonce reference somewhere. The gay community loves her, so there is no surprise that someone would make a sign out of one of her most famous songs, ‘Put A Ring On IT’. This guy is just saying what everyone is thinking: Why can’t people be with who they want to be if they are in love?
The creativity of some of these signs is unmatched. We’re having a good time just reading them and seeing what everyone came up with. We know we couldn’t ever be this creative!
Trump's Taxes
Now, this is really funny. Donald Trump wouldn’t release his tax returns, even though so many people asked for them to be released. These guys took that problem and found their own unique solution. We’re not sure it’s necessary to go this far, but we do like the sentiment. There were probably some protesters that hated seeing this sign. We love it, and we love the two guys holding it.
We can only imagine all the different people who approached these two men during the day. Hopefully, they had some fun and were able to make a lot of people laugh.
Marriage
People always complain about how tough marriage is, so this sign is quite funny. And they have a good point! If two men, or two women, decide to get married, what does that have to do with your marriage? Let these people be in love and enjoy one another’s company. Marriage freedom for everyone does not hurt a single person. Those upset about it are just looking for a reason to argue.
Hopefully, the person who was holding this sign has been able to get married and has had a really good marriage. We also hope they haven’t stopped making these badass signs.
Goodbye Kansas
For those that don’t know who Dorothy is, this person is referring to the character in The Wizard of Oz book and movie. And for those wondering about the state of Kansas, it isn’t the friendliest when it comes to the LGBTQ community. So, this sign is really good. We hope the person holding this wonderful sign has been able to find happiness. Whether that is in Kansas or some other state.
It’s a shame that some states are so closed-minded, but that’s the way it is. Luckily, no matter the state, there are plenty of people who want to fight for everyone’s freedom.
