Here are my thoughts, as a gay man...
The gay community has parades every year. PRIDE parades. We have fought for rights and equality for years and years. We have been through one of the most devastating viruses, AIDS, in history.
I am sure a lot, if not most, of these "men" attend these parades or even march in them. They seem to forget the devastation that AIDS brought to our community. A lot of them may have been too young to have gone through what a lot of us went through and became a part of the community after so much progress was made both with AIDS and gay rights. So it is evident that they don't care and they don't remember or haven't bothered to find out all we went through back in the 80's through the early 2000's. All of the people lost. The vigils. The events and fundraisers. No support from the Reagans. The pain and sadness. And because of that time, we should be setting an example. Or community went through this. But we have this generation of entitlement, across the board, gay, straight and otherwise. And here we are.
It is an embarrassment to our community.
Just my random thoughts.
