Another presumably: no one was forced to take their children to either the parade or the club, right?*bg*

I have had a blast at gay pride marches. It was a chance to be "out there" for so many of our friends and family who, instead of uptight and repressed as they had to be in day-to-day life, had a blast just letting it all hang out, no pun intended. And, for the record, I have never seen full nudity at the ones I've been in. I think it is easy for folks to forget just how closeted lesbigays have had to be over the years. So some of them may go overboard, so what? No one is going to make you attend. Does anyone complain about the scantily clad marchers during Mardi Gras, women throwing their panties and all? Anyone ever complain about hetero couples practically mating on a grassy knoll in a park? It's this country, being SO puritanical in its views about our bodies and sex that really upsets me.

Yea, that's about the way I see it re' the prophets/profits of today, Dave. And, I don't mean just the religious ones...there's Profits of Fear, that's a BIGGIE right now!
