Why do we need a parade? To celebrate how awesome we are? Yes?
Stop thinking like that. It's gross. We are gay. So what? Do we need a fucking parade screaming "yay were gay!"? No. Also, thanks for shoving straightness into it. If you want a gay parade, at least stop making the parade straight.
Gay people. Are normal. Straight people. Are normal. So stop trying to give us so much attention. Why do we even have to be labelled? Just call it love. No one cares if you're straight, bi, lesbian, gay, transgender, pansexual, asexual, whatever. You either love, or you don't. You're a person, or you're not. Great for you.
