I certainly believe that this present culture believes that heterosexuality is something to be ashamed of. Just look at the fury at the mere thought of heterosexual pride.
Of course you do...but you need to have some pride.
Do you like gay parades? What do you wear?
I've been to many gay pride parades..Long Beach, LA, Palm Springs, San Diego, San Francisco, Rochester and New York....since they take place in June, I'm usually in shorts and a polo shirt. Except for a few gay bar floats, they are usually ok but not flamboyant....social groups, politicians, church groups, sports groups, military, etc.
