I hope the pride parade in Boston is more appropriate than the ones I've seen in the West Village in NYC.


Depends on what you mean by that. I stated the worst of it above. Otherwise, eh. It was tame. Tamer than years before.


What I mean is that I'd get warned on GameFAQs if I posted pictures of many of the outfits and actions at NYC's pride parades in the village.

I'm hoping the Boston one is less about glorifying sex fetishes and more about just celebrating pride in a family-friendly manner.


Again, I posted the basics of it above. The topless women were a bit much. The blood on the pants were awkward, but I suppose not revealing (althrough they walked around with blow-up penises) ... and the bondage people with dog masks didn't exactly have anything visual. Just yeah, it was fetish wear.

The thing is, people join the parade because they are proud to be who they are, and of what they like. People cheering the parade on support anyone who marches, as long as there isn't support of harm towards other human beings, which none of these groups support. To be fair when you think about it, humanity stigmatized sexuality and without our societal growth towards modesty, sexual body parts would never even be stigmatized from the beginning. They are parts of who we are. For that reason, I mean..... I see why people support it. It's a battle of social stigmatics versus things we have naturally and some people just wish to have be NOT stigmatized. (Like the topless movement.)

I am a complete and utter prude, but I try to look at it on both ends here. I personally rather not look at people's naked or mostly naked bodies anywhere in public, except maybe at the beach in bikinis, but let's be honest. Beach goers are often more skimpy in clothing than the majority of pride is. There are some who push the bars, but it isn't like highly-revealing isn't accepted.... in some public places.
