I went to my first gay pride parade in 1992. It was a fucking revolutionary act. It also radiated a kind of wonder and joy that is hard to describe now. It was like lifting a veil on the world and finding a whole and better new world just sitting there underneath. It was fairly intoxicating. Maybe I’m just remembering being 18 :D
A lot has changed since then and gay people don’t live with the threat of extinction the same way anymore. But we’re far from past the need for this event. A lot of miles still have to be travelled. And even in the far future, coming out will still be a revolutionary event for the kid doing it and having a Pride event to attend will matter every bit as much to them.
So no, it’s not something we’ll ever not need. Gosh wouldn’t it be something if we could ever not need this…
