June 1st as like in the past few years businesses and corporations will cover their logos with rainbows and stuff pride into their messaging to the customer/consumer. Will this effect your spending with the business?

That doesn't bother me. What people do in the privacy of their bedroom is not my concern. If the business wants to encourage that market segment to shop there, that's their choice of marketing.
Now if they promote perversion like Target, that is something else entirely.
I live in the most LGBT-friendly neighborhood of one of the most LGBT-friendly cities in the country. Every place around here has rainbow flags and all that year round, and it has never in any way negatively affected me, a regular straight dude. I'm perfectly welcomed there. (Unlike they might be in conservative hick towns.)

Don't care unless they push it to kids. Go be gay don't care. But in the case of target and kholes ...they seem to be keenly focused on kids. So they can get boycotted.
I'm usually fine with some gay clothing here and there. Even some Trans stuff doesnt really bother me. Hell, it took me 6 month to realize my corner bar had Rainbow flags all over. Didnt bother me. But, with all of the pushing of Hormone treatments on children as low as 8 years old and the surgery that will most likely follow at 18, I really don't want to see any of it now, considering that all LGBT community supports it.

Fine here too, until they start talking about removing a perfectly healthy penis, Vagina, or breast. It's like sexual mutilation is horrible when Muslims do it in North Africa, but it they do it as a sex change, then it's fine

Are they removing your vagina? If not, then what's the problem?
What other people do with their bodies, what they're into sexually, what clothes they wear, etc.- all that stuff is their business, and not mine.
What ever happened to this being a free country? Do conservatives not believe in that anymore?

No one can be pushed into being gay. Thats just not reality. You are born the way you are. But they are being pushed into being heterosexual even if they aren’t…because this is what is expected from them.
No. It has no impact whatsoever on my spending habits. Typically, I buy from small businesses that have no political agenda. They don't even decorate the stores for the traditional holidays typically. I also buy a lot online. If they have some sort of ideology to push, than I am oblivious to it.
While I feel politics and business should be kept separate (they mix like water and oil) I am not going to avoid a business just for celebrating pride month.
It does not effect me in any way. I have been around gay people my entire 60 years of life and I have only known one trans person by first name. Why should I care what a store does for it's bottom line. If they have something I need or want I will purchase it. If you don't want a pride T-shirt do what millions of folks do every year and not buy it. Same goes for books.
