I have fun there and so does everyone else.<BR/>Yea, we would all rally if someone wanted to close the bars. It's still the one consistant way to meet outside the blog and net world.buffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14220404369676535957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9771388.post-1112544730983806402005-04-03T12:12:00.000-04:002005-04-03T12:12:00.000-04:00I went to the Gay Pride a few times when I lived i...I went to the Gay Pride a few times when I lived in Paris. Partly because some of my friens would suggest to walk together. And mostly because I believed it was one thing to do to fight for gay rights. I don't think anymore that the Gay Pride helps at all. On the contrary, I think it gives of the gay population a false image. <BR/>I have participated in the Walk against Aids last year in Central Park. I was happy to raise $1000. <BR/>It was interesting to realize that my friends who sponsored me where mostly the ones who are straight and the ones who live outside of the gay world. And some of my friends who go to bars and clubs every week didn't even bother to make a donation at all. <BR/>Now, I would demonstrate for the right to gay marriage if there was a demonstration in New Yor. And I would just hope that it doesn't look like the Gay Pride. <BR/>And of course, if a crazy mayor wanted to make the gay bars close, I would demonstrate also even though I almost never go and even though I have sometimes felt treated like you have - the bartender ignoring me - when I did go very occasionaly.Theohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13874233079059602896noreply@blogger.com
