I avoid the parades because I have no understanding of why gays feel that they have to portray themselves in way that almost says they want to be segregated from the population and not fit in.
Also, something to consider. The day after the Pride Parades, White Parties etc all the photos in the paper or on TV news show guys in speedos, tutus and drag. They may have been the only ones in the parade, but they are the only images the str8 population see of the gay community. When so many of the images of the gay man is in a speedo -- is anyone surprised the suit has been "Gay"?
