I respectfully disagree. We don't have heterosexual pride parades but the gays have gay pride parades. It's my business when they behave outrageously in public. They flaunt their sexual choices in order to force their views on dissenting adults. They have an agenda and I disagree with flaunting ANY sexual choices in public. Their flagrant sexual displays in public are meant for shock value. Btw, I have a brother who is gay. I love him dearly. And he has personal dignity. He and his friends have never "displayed" themselves in public.
I have a serious problem from the outset with anyone who thinks that the 5% have a moral right to mug the 95% and whip them into line using lies and bullyragging. Particularly when they're allied with the liberal mainstream press, which has been "out" on the issue since at least 1994, when the newsmagazines launched a major propaganda offensive built around the release of the Tom Hanks movie, Philadelphia. Which its creator admitted in an interview was a propaganda piece.
We happened to be driving through New York City once and got intertwined with a gay rights parade. While we were stuck in traffic and forced to watch, including my three children, men in string bikinis on floats acting out anal intercourse. Then came a giant phallic condom float. And so on, and so on. (We didn't see a NAMBLA float, but I understand it's often there.) Gays have the right to engage in the most perverted kinds of sexuality if they want (though they endanger themselves, and rarely show concern for the others with regard to the manifold diseases they spread around). But to showcase such on the streets of New York? The society's gone mad. I resent this kind of behavior. I resent that my children saw it. I resent the fact the millions of other innocent children see it. Gays should be ashamed of themselves when they do this. But of course they're not. When you believe that having anal intercourse with scads of anonymous partners (a very common gay practice, according to CDC statistics), there's little to be ashamed about.
