    It’s called “pride”. If you’re not proud of it then I guess just don’t show up.

      I am proud, and I’d like to join a movement that actually accomplishes meaningful change for the acceptance of LGBT+ people, which I believe pride parades currently do not.

      I’ll join the pride parade the day the goal becomes to convince others that we’re just like them, with jobs, families and bills to pay. Not sex-crazed maniacs, which is the stereotype perpetuated by a small minority amplified on right wing media.
