Fair is fair.

While in SFO and on Market Street about 8 years ago, I had the unfortunate experience of seeing one of these "homo pride" parades going by. I saw public nudity, and some other perversions I wouldn't post here. Ever heard of the "Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence"? Yuck! Simply put, I don't think Irish Catholics in their cultural heritage parades and these gay fests are comparable.
