Earlier someone asked what would happen if they held a straight parade. Someone else answered that it would reveal the "double standard" in existance. I don't know what this means. I have never been attacked by gay people for being proud. I've said it before and I'll say it again; I'm straight and I'm proud. I'm proud to live at a time and in a place where I can know so many people. Beautiful people of different colors, and sexuality and cultures. I'm proud of the fact that I have a mind capable of learning something new everyday. I'm proud to be capable of loving and being loved.
So you see? We can all be proud. There is no double standard in that. The double standard coems when a society says one segment cannot have the same rights as the other segments. We can all be proud. We can all march. So, to the asker of the parade question, isn't it time we all marched proudly together and demanded equal rights and acceptance for all?
