Wording is extremely important.

Not when it's a concept that's going to require clarification no matter how carefully you word a snappy title.

Yeah um, personally I don't feel supported by gayness being represented as extremely flamboyant guys expressing in the most attention-seeking way possible. It's a horrible stereotype I don't want associated with me.

The people that form those stereotypes based on a handful of the most extreme people seen in a celebratory parade that happens once a year are going to form those stereotypes regardless, because frankly, they aren't bright enough to have a more nuanced opinion. The fact that people can be that flamboyant is exactly what Pride is celebrating, so it's only natural that that freedom is exercised.

Wanting to see lesbians kiss isn't homophobic. It's a brutal attack, but it's standard london thuggery.

Can you reasonably say that the same group would have similarly attacked a straight couple? If not, then it was a homophobic attack, since it was done on the basis of their sexuality.

Nobody said that though dum dum.

That they're confused why Pride is a thing? The mere existence of "straight pride" represents people being confused why Pride is a thing, and those who don't understand the difference are similarly confused.
