The Paris Gay Pride parade was today. Every year it passes along the boulevard Saint-Germain, right at the end of our street. I’ve seen so many (in San Diego). I mean, I was hanging out at Hula’s in Honolulu (underage, of course) with my best buddy Joel in the golden era (late 70s). The new Hula’s sucks, BTW. Used to take Trevor to the Pride parade when he was a kid. So he’d be cool with it and all. And he is, I’m proud to say.
Vincent wasn’t in the mood for the crowd and noise today. Burned out from a heavy work load. I had to go to the pharmacy (horror), so I decided to stop a bit and watch.
I thought I’d seen everything. But in all those San Diego Pride parades, I never saw the LGBT division of the Young Socialists…
How refreshing!

Great that you exposed Trevor to diversity from a young age. Wish the world had more broadminded people who are comfortable with diversity.
The MJS delegation reminds me of the Gay Pride parades in Brussels: many parties (well, not the right wing of the political spectrum) send their delegation to show their support.
Btw: same-sex couples can marry and adopt in Antwerp, Belgium – but I never felt the need to do so, as there was no one really worth marrying…. ;-)
Given the size of Paris I did enjoy the Gay Pride parade, but found many people “très blasé” – although that has become a universal problem..
