gay pride bucuresti

[earwigmc]

as we reached piata unirii we saw philip and tomas and ana and monica, and we were going to follow them (likely looking as they were)... but ended up directing them *smile* tho it was not long before it was easy enough to simply follow the lines of police to the start point for the march. and the massing for the start was as confusing as most gay

Wow, I can't imagine what it must be like to march through such a crowd. I've participated in a lot of prides, including San Francisco Pride, but never received anything but cheers and support from the crowd.

I expected something closer to what you describe when I first marched, as it was one of my first steps to coming out and my secondary school had been a bed of casual homophobia, but I quickly realised that I was more likely to be given a free can of Red Bull and a corporate sponsored nightclub whistle than make a political statement.

The first time I saw members of the police march in uniform, at Manchester Pride 2004, was still very powerful though.
