The new prudery infiltrates society: how the Pride-Month in the middle of the rainbow colors is overshadowed by an ominous threat
The new prudery is a phenomenon that is increasingly spreading in society and affects different areas of life. While tolerance and acceptance are still propagated on the outside, there is an increasing tendency towards tangeness and reluctance, especially in terms of sexuality.
A particularly visible expression of this prudery is the CSD parade (Christopher Street Day) in Berlin, which takes place on July 22nd. Although the CSD is intended as a sign of pride and acceptance for the LGBTQ+community, it is becoming increasingly infiltrated by a new prudence.
The train will move along the Federal Council building and thus send a clear political message. However, especially within sight of the Chancellery and the Bundestag, many participants will increasingly make sure that they do not make too provocative or controversial statements.
This new prudery is shown, for example, that some participants refrain from presenting themselves in provocative clothing or relying on provocative cladding. Instead, an increasingly mainstream-compatible look dominates, in which individuality and extravagance seem to no longer play a role.
The new prudery can also be felt in other areas of public life. For example, in films and television series, more explicit representations of sexuality is not used. Instead, it is more often focused on romantic and emotional aspects of love.However, this new prudish is not only limited to society as a whole, but also affects the private life of many people. More and more people feel uncomfortable or even anxious when it comes to open and honest conversations about sexuality. Open and respectful communication in relationships is of essential importance.
It is important that society becomes aware of this tendency and counteracts it. It should not be that topics such as sexuality and LGBTQ+ are increasingly being pushed into the taboo zone. Rather, openness and tolerance should be promoted and the individuality of each individual should be accepted.
The CSD in Berlin is one way to send a strong sign against the new prudery. People meet here who fight for their rights and freedom. It is important that the event continues to enable space for creativity and provocation in order to move society to rethink. The new prudery can only be overcome through openness and acceptance and the variety of love will continue to be celebrated.
