My town is having its first pride event next week and I originally had thoughts of checking it out, but I decided not to. The reasons being is because I have absolutely no idea what I would be doing at something like this for entertainment and it would be kinda awkward for me as a straight person to attend an event which is themed towards same sex attraction. I also don't support transgenders so to an extent it would be a little bit uncomfortable for me to attend this when I know there's going to be a lot of them running around.

I think you'd be every bit as welcome as you are here (welcome! You're very welcome here.) I think if you aren't invested in trans and queer identity pride will be awkward.
