Pride in what exactly?
Sexual preference?
Proclivity?
Whats there to be proud of, by the very nature of bringing it into the news it is admitting something which needs acceptence or forgiveness.
I have no problem with anything people wanna do in the bedroom.
Just keep it off the streets and dont try to involve minors in it.
Be who you are, just don't expect me to accept it, after all, I have a history to, many people would not like it.
Get over yourself.
In the past every town used to have a carnival in June or July and they found it hard to get funding for it.
But call it a pride event and people are bending over backwards to support it. Tourists come in for it... hotels get filled up and pubs seem to make a lot more cash.
