Taking pride in your sexuality as the sole factor of your existence is dumb.

I can go much more into detail on this and why I think it's remarkably stupid (I have countered Rica's points before but we got shut down before I ever got a reply) to take pride in your sexuality as if it somehow is [i]the[/i] single deciding factor of who you are.

You're more than gay. Lessening yourself to nothing more than gay or whatever the fuck the Tumblrites are calling it now is not only insulting to yourself, but also insulting to me for making me waste my time looking at sexuality where I don't want to see it (namely public space). 

If I wanna see girls/guys dancing around half naked celebrating their gayness, I'd go to pornhub and look up the gay porn. But I don't want that, both because I am not gay and because I don't particularly care for other peoples sexualities.

Sorry to just jump in, but you made a statement that always bothers me. 
"also insulting to me for making me waste my time looking at sexuality where I don't want to see it (namely public space)."
I don't understand how there are people who say this and don't realize the flaw with it. You are, simply by being in public, incredibly likely to be looking at sexuality. Specifically, heterosexual acts of attraction. Go to your local mall and count the number of straight people on dates, who kiss in public, hold hands, hug, so on and so forth. These things are regarded as "normal" and nobody bothers to think of them as "showing sexuality in public" because it's [i]heterosexuality[/i] being shown, which isn't considered "sexuality" because it's the norm and we've been conditioned that way. People only ever say "I don't want to see sexuality in public" when talking about those who aren't hetero of some description. 
This lends itself to why gay pride is something worthwhile while straight pride isn't. When you see a male and female hold hands or kiss, nobody cares. Nobody even bothers to think "I don't want to see their sexuality in public" unless they're [i]really[/i] going at it, for example, heavily making out. But if a male and male or female and female do the same things, the thought "don't do that in public" appears. 
I honestly don't care how openly sexual people are in public, regardless of their pairing. Sure, I might get grossed out if one of the participants has traits that I find undesirable, or if they make noises or give a visual that I personally find disgusting, (for example, heavily making out) but I have no intention of saying or even thinking "hey, they really shouldn't do that in public." I can see why people would feel that way, but if they do, it should be all or nothing. No PDA of any kind, not just no gay PDA.
