When Pride started in the late 80s early 90s it was about pride. Now It's about MO-NAE. Everybody and anybody wants part of the MO-NAE.
ReplyDeleteIs the "BAD GIRLS RULE" woman actress Sandra Bernhard, and is she still tough as nails today?
ReplyDeleteI'm all for everyone having their day, and I fully support equality, that said I remember the 80's and early 90's when this celebration was called "Gay Pride Day"!!! When did this become "Gay Pride Month"??? Just wondering?? HAPPY PRIDE DAY EVERYONE!!
ReplyDeleteGay Pride Day....a great concept for great people. But Gay Shame Day might be an appropriate label as well. As a resident of the EV what I saw on the streets resembled Drunken Santa Con in drag. The amount of inebriated rainbow colored and cloaked individuals was disgusting. The misbehavior of those fools hurts everyone. The amount of trash and litter intentional tossed into the streets and on the sidewalks by those who think our neighborhood deserves no respect is disgusting. No manners. No respect. No civility.
ReplyDeleteI am all for a celebration of our sexuality and the right to display it in any manner we choose..but people please....look at the message you sent.
Shame, shame, shame on Gay Pride Day. Perhaps next year you will do better.
Pride day parade had some people not showing too much pride. they were drunk and being fools. It is a month of no judging,let it be. the Citizens app was going crazy yesterday.
