is it still a Gay Pride parade without erect penises, simulated sex and nudity?

Interesting. The city of Dallas tried a pre-emptive warning basically begging the gay pride folks to obey the laws and not get nude, slap down the hard-ons and not do simulated or actual sex. Do you believe that asking the revelers to conform to the laws is homophobic? Do you feel that an exception should be made for Gay Pride parades and allow nudity, erections and simulated and actual sex acts?


excerpts

"To make the parade more 'family friendly' and to accommodate comfort for the increasing number of attending heterosexuals and corporate sponsorship, participants are being asked to cover up!" activist Daniel Scott Cates wrote on his Facebook page. "The 'queer' is effectively being erased from our pride celebration."

Another activist, Hardy Haderman, wrote an aggrieved column for the Dallas Voice, a weekly serving the gay community.

"The assimilationists insist we tone down and throw away all our joyous sexiness," he wrote. "Why? To do that turns the Pride Parade into a We-Are-Ashamed parade, and I refuse to be part of that."

“If there’s an erection and a child is present that could see it, it is a felony, and we don’t want to see that happen.”

 

Huh? I have been to 4 pride parades in Ontario including the big one in Toronto and there were no simulated sex acts or penises flopping around. It's a family event with a lot of parents with children.

 

You might want to post the whole article, instead of selecting statements you think will get people all riled up. The answers to the questions you ask are in the article itself. Seriously, stop misrepresenting your sources. And again, your thread titles are extremely misleading.

 

feel free to read the quotes from the gay activists who are against the nudity ban


you failed on so many levels

is it a gay pride event without nudity, simulated and actual sex and erect penises?

the photos from that event contradicts your post; hmmmmmmmmmm

 

Propagada sites often take pictures from other events and attribute them to whatever they are trying to go against. I assure you it was family friendly,

 

Perhaps except for the one or two people for which this warning was prompted by in the previous year, I assume it wont make a bit of difference for the thousands of others. I still expect plenty of clothing more appropriate for a beach than a civil rights march, though.

 

Sec, you can watch the whole 2013 Chicago Pride Parade eight here on ABC:

Yes, it was televised here.

 

are you thinking of Mardi Gras

 

It's OK if it's heterosexuals. It's just not OK if it's teh eevul Gheys.

 

there are some who live in a fantasy world of their own making and that soothes them.

 

That's the thing, if I were gay I'd be mad about a bunch of idiots like that going around and presenting themselves as the 'poster children for gay people' - it'd be like if some people held a wild Mardi-Gras or "swingers" type event and called that "straight pride".

Groups like that aren't doing much to curb homophobia, they're basically reenforcing negative stereotypes.

How's an event that's based off of 'pride' in one's personal plumbing preferences a "family event"?

 

Why don't you watch the videos I posted and find out? I do post things for a reason.

 

WARNING

nude penises at the link which has photos from the toronto gay pride 2013

maybe naked penises is "family friendly" to some posters here but not by my definition

scroll down that page below for "the asses of pride"

family friendly my eye. Is it still a gay pride parade without wieners and butts on full display?

yup, no issues with my kids looking at this in a parade. So little Jimmy, you want to know why that guy is naked and what's the message? Why that he's a homosexual and behaves like everyone else, can't you tell by his behavior?

 

Lol... your word vs. Google images.... (sorry couldn't post them, lots of uncovered penises)

Right... things like that never happen...

Bingo. Well said.

These parades are what people think of when the word "gay" is thrown around.

If I were gay I'd distance myself from this behavior... not defend it.


There your respected people like Anderson Cooper, Ellen Degeneres, George Michael... all whom I love.

Then there are those in the news who create the image of being gay....

 

No one says it never happens.....people say it doesn't always happen......
sorry you dont understand the difference.

 

I said it never happens.

silly boy. So back to the question. Can it be a gay pride parade without naked penises, simulated and real sex acts?

 

I ran into the same issue. That's why I posted the disclaimer because the bare butts and flopping dicks were in the pictures that I found from that "family friendly" Toronto pride 2013 parade

But, maybe it is family friendly to the homosexual members of this forum. To me, it's not. Look to the festival in San Fran and you'll find pictures of gay men who brought 3 year olds to the event and the 3 year olds had on collars. And guess what was going on all around them? Nude men with hard-ons performing fellatio to each other and other men whacking off and shooting their load onto people. Yup, family friendly stuff

 

interesting how you obviously have not watched the coverage video I posted on page one. And don;t get me started on what heterosexuals do in public. You're going to be quite embarrassed.

 

Not interested in peoples' videos of gay parades, no offense.

And there is nothing you could say here that would embarrass me.

So if "starting on what heterosexuals do" is your way of diminishing naked, penis-filled parades, then by all means... justify them.

To someone else.

 

Family friendly and Gay pride are oxymorons.

Those pervs...well the males at least spend the better part of their youth cruising for anonymous sex...
Having spent time on the West coast...in particular San Francisco...the gay bath houses were notorious

Lesbians tend towards more monagamous sexual proclivities...so I'll leave them out the fray...but the males?
That's a different story entirely.

Rampant STDs including the most serious, HIV/Aids. is the direct result of their hedonistic abandon....

They do not maintain a family friendly lifestyle...they are pretty much all perverts and weirdos.

Keep your children FAR away from them....
