A wide variety of people march in the parade, watch the parade, and participate in the other Pride events. I go every year with a group of friends, both straight and gay.<BR/><BR/>The Mr. Hetero contest is explicitly anti-gay, to the point that they had an "ex-gay" speak on our "destructive, addictive behavior." Gays were most definitely not welcome. From the pictures on the Article8 site, it was almost entirely white people, but that's another issue.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13062504.post-1141927121251158212006-03-09T13:58:00.000-04:002006-03-09T13:58:00.000-04:00While there are things going on all week and it is...While there are things going on all week and it is called Pride Week, the Sat parade is really the biggest day.

It's my mother's answer to "why do we have mother's day and father's day, but not children's day" -- "Every day is children's day."<BR/><BR/>The second is intent. Gay Pride Day is about getting together to celebrate our community, one that is very often under attack by people like Article8. The various Mr. Gay type pageants (including Black or Hispanic beauty pageants) are an outlet in a world where one is bombarded by images of straight white people. Things have gotten better, but think of Article8's reaction to a billboard with 2 men on it to get a feel for how rare that is.<BR/><BR/>White Pride Day and the Mr. Hetero pageant are about oppression, pure and simple. White Pride in particular is aboout celebrating white people's superiority over others, but even a courtesy read of the Mr. Hetero site makes it clear the point is to mock gay people, not celebrate straight people. <BR/><BR/>The same is true of MassResistance, which is why we're here in the first place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13062504.post-1141859517241341522006-03-08T19:11:00.000-04:002006-03-08T19:11:00.000-04:00well, look around you.

Look at the cover of any magazine (except for the gay ones). Look at the Academy awards, the movie was about two men loving each other but the actors were straight. the host was straight, all the award winners were straight, well almost all. Gay Pride is one day to be in the majority.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13062504.post-1141848978770879922006-03-08T16:16:00.000-04:002006-03-08T16:16:00.000-04:00I have an honest question -- not trying to provoke...I have an honest question -- not trying to provoke anger or anything like that here: how would you guys describe the difference between white pride, black pride, and gay pride?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13062504.post-1141845620832600452006-03-08T15:20:00.000-04:002006-03-08T15:20:00.000-04:00I'm sure the similarities between Mr. Camenker's s...I'm sure the similarities between Mr. Camenker's statements and those of the White Nationalist movement are purely coincidental.<BR/><BR/>http://www.stormfront.org/forum/calendar.php?do=getinfo&day=2006-3-20&e=221&c=1<BR/><BR/>White Pride World Wide Day<BR/><BR/><BR/>Every year on March 21st the United Nations has the International Day for the Elimination of Racial discrimination.

I figured that they would try to make a media circus out of this since no one really cared.<BR/><BR/>I guess Article 8 is still the screaming child in the back of the room crying out for attention by the teacher. Now they have a friend in Rev. Crouse. Do you think Rev. Crouse has a gay fixation on the similarly named actor Tom Cruise?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
