I've 'accidently' ended up in gay bars in Newcastle, which have generally turned out to be decent nights.

I was approached by doormen in each one who had to explain to me it was a 'gay' bar, which clearly goes to show I don't look gay.

Cant believe that some of those lasses are gay when they is so much cock about.

What I said, if people see if for just the street party it is then all is well and jolly but if people try to give it the same weight it used to have then there are rooted issues. One being the stereotyping of everyone with a different to the norm sexuality, which simply couldn't be further from the real world of LGBT. That very stereotyping of LGBT people these events give off is counterproductive at best and will only help the already 'influenced' people out there with negative views or even hatred of LGBT people. The whole 'pride' issue as well is putting even the most liberal people off, too. We are born this way, how can we be 'proud' of something we have absolutely no control over whatsoever. We haven't saved three hundred people from a burning building. We haven't dismantled bombs on trains or safety landed a plane. Or cured cancer. We just happen to have a sexuality slightly off the sexuality the majority of people have. That is nothing to be 'proud' of. Am not saying we should be ashamed either, of course, don't get me wrong, but the whole 'pride' label at these events makes it harder for those in the LGBT community who still struggle. And they are still out there. A simple street party once a year is not going to change that, sorry. The over the top stereotyping these events give off, the 'pride' label and yes to a degree the campness of it all is not how most people in the LGBT community see ourselves. Looking at it this way how can these events be any good to the general LGBT person ? You don't agree with me and am fine with that, of course I am, but I speak with experience and it tells me these events are of very little help. But, and I shall happily repeat it yet again, as a street party it still has its place and long may it stay that way. I honestly cannot believe I need to point all of this out to you. Unless you are winding me up, of course. People can be too liberal, you know.

The first time I organised an SMB piss-up in London, I arranged it to meet in the Porcupine Leicester sq, on a Saturday. Was the day of the gay pride. Blokes meeting off the internet in the middle of gay pride. It's no wonder I get so much grief on here

I'd drag my nutsack over a glass shard bedding the size of Iceland to hang out of the back of yours, mind.
