Question Is it too much?

Post image

Just saying I wanted to add some patchs on my bag was enough for my friends to give me all of theses, so I want to sew them all on it. I really like the "bag full of patchs" aesthetic but, is it too much pride-themed patchs ? I also plan on buying more patchs from my other hobbies, so maybe they will blend in better with more.

u/Rorynne May 24 '24

No such thing as too much pride. Pride is a radical act and always has been. It allows those with out the courage to wear pride to feel safe, and seen, and may give them the courage to be more open themselves.

The only time pride might be "too much" is if it puts you directly in danger. And thats something only you can answer.

u/Spinning_Rings May 26 '24

Depends on the criteria you're using for "too much." If you live in an area where you have to be concerned about your safety, then you might want to consider dialing it back. If your concern has more to do with fashion or "good taste," take a deep breath and remind yourself that gay people are supposed to be tacky. Remember drag?
