I think your post finally made me realize why the over the top sexual extravagance of most pride parades today bother me. You know, like the people wearing nothing but bondage gear etc. They're making it hard for the kids who haven't come out yet to come out! I see pictures of pride parades from the 80s/90s and it's just a bunch of regular looking people, because that was the message. "We're here, we're normal, we're your neighbors and coworkers and friends and family." I think now many people in the lgbt take for granted that they're "accepted" and so they turn pride parade into pervert parade, forgetting about those who aren't out of the closet yet and will probably stay in the closet because they don't want to be associated with that.
