What is Pride about anyhow? Is it about being free to hold hands in public without getting bashed on the head by a 2x4? Is it about having access to civil marriage and all the rights and responsibilities that are associated with civil marriage? Is it about being able to live your life in peace without being harrassed and discriminated? Or is it one big party? An opportunity for politicians to lobby for your vote? An opportunity for companies to ask for your business? An opportunity for charities to ask for your dollars? I suppose it is all of that and perhaps just an excuse to get out of the house and enjoy a nice parade. Everyone loves a parade. Happy Pride.
