Here's how it went down: Prince George loves helicopters, according to The Telegraph. Now, people are calling Prince George a gay icon based on the photo and the resulting memes, and it's really not OK.

In the photo, George is looking back over his shoulder with his hand on the side of his mouth - the same expression my mother used to make when I made an inappropriate joke at dinner or something. And, of course, there's an adorable photo of the moment, which went viral after being memed and re-memed, because it's just that cute. So Happy Pride to Hilary Duff, and Hilary Duff only.Over the weekend, Prince George boarded a helicopter while in Hamburg, Germany, as part of the royal family's Europe tour, according to The Observer. The phrase integrated into accepted conversation to the point that even the least homophobic among us-even the gayest among us, to be honest-used it with abandon, completely unaware that each time it was said, it fortified an environment for more extreme anti-LGBT harassment, bullying, and violence to perpetuate. It turns out that growing up with “that’s so gay” as an insult sucks. And while there have been noble, emotional, and incredibly effective campaigns over the years tackling things like anti-gay violence, the startling LGBT suicide rates, and trans rights, the attempt to raise awareness about an issue that seemed so mundane but was so harmful in its mainstream existence was profound. The thing is, I’m only writing all this with a hint of sarcasm. Anyway, she quickly disintegrated into a pile of humiliated ashes, and Hilary Duff defeated homophobia then and there. You see, not only was the girl casually problematic, she was wearing a skirt as a top. “What if every time something was bad, everybody said, ‘That’s so ‘girl wearing a skirt as a top?’” To say something is gay when you mean it’s bad “is insulting,” she schools them. “You know, you really shouldn’t say that,” Duff, the first LGBT superhero, no matter what Marvel says, interrupts. ( Watch it here.) The spot features Duff clothes shopping and overhearing two girls trying on clothes. Let us never forget when Hilary Duff told us it’s not cool to call things “gay” as an insult.īack in 2008, the community’s one true ally, Lizzie Maguire, filmed a PSA for the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network’s (GLSEN) campaign to eradicate the phrase “that’s so gay” from casual conversation.

That is all to say there is exactly one piece of inspiring LGBT content that matters to me, and, like many queer millennials, I revisit it fondly once a year. Let me drink my roadie of vodka soda, dance to a cacophony of Lady Gaga songs booming from various speakers, and get sunburned while scrolling through thirst traps in peace, as the revolutionists intended. Listen, I would rather weigh in on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict than get embroiled in the annual, insufferable discourse about the cynical commercialization of Pride Month, the brief tokenization of visibility, and who, what, and how much leather bondage belongs at marches and parades.
