What's sad is that the few gay people I know CRINGE at the stunts pulled during these parades. They say, and I agree, that the "in-your-face" flaunting that goes on during the Pride parades makes it harder for gays like them (quiet and semi-closeted) to just keep their heads down and be left to live in peace.

What's especially nasty is when they bring up this point in their community they get shouted down by the flamers. So the flamer's conduct is hurting the non-flamer gays and they can't even say anything to get it to stop.

It is probably easier for a gay conservative to come out as a homosexual, than to come out as a conservative to other gays.
