Are you serious? "Flaunting"? We're FIGHTING for our BASIC RIGHTS still. It's not flaunting anything if it's still illegal for you to even go to the fucking bathroom. This is just trying to gain visibility, good visibility, not like anything you see on TV or in the newspapers

I actually find it silly, and baffling, that people feel they need to flaunt ANY lifestyle in public. I, like many people, could care less ... more

I actually find it silly, and baffling, that people feel they need to flaunt ANY lifestyle in public. I, like many people, could care less who you sleep with. I don't care who you love. If you work, pay your taxes, don't abuse me or mine, then we are on good terms. Period. I won't walk in a parade with a sign saying "straight, married, hetero pride" and I don't need to see a sign concerning your sleeping habits. Who cares????!!!! Why is anyone doing this? That I totally, completely, don't get. I suspect it is simply that when one feels isolated and in the minority, then they feel power, and even "average normality" (whatever that is), when they see others in definite support of their same situation, whatever that is. Beyond that, I cannot fathom why anyone's sexual preferences needs to be, or should be "put on parade"!?! I would actually love to hear from people that have participated in such public events as to why they did, and how they felt it was appropriate. I wonder how much these demonstrations actually hurt general public acceptance of their lifestyle, verses helps it? less
