Idaho Bar Promotes ‘Heterosexual Awesomeness Month’
post reads. “Come join us all month to celebrate heterosexuals, for without them, none of us would be here!”A post shared by Old State Saloon (@oldstatesaloon)Old State’s offers include a Monday drink special in which every man dressed like a “heterosexual male” — whatever that means — will get a free pint of beer.A Wednesday deal gives heterosexual couples 15% off their total.And on Thursdays, heterosexual women get happy hour pricing all day, which seems like your basic, garden-variety “Ladies’ Night.”Oh, and the bar is selling branded merchandise, including a T-shirt with the phrase “Beers for Breeders.”The post received backlash from the LGBTQ community and its allies, who flooded Old State Saloon’s Facebook page with negative comments, some laced with profanity, to which Old State clutched its holier-than-thou pearls.“It seems as though people who are against Heterosexual Awesomeness Month have a hard time commenting without using horrific words, expletives, using the name of the Lord in vain, etc.,” the bar posted on Facebook.“Make an intelligent comment and stay.
