You missed the point entirely.
I could have picked any radical group, but chose the KKK because I thought most posters would say "no way!" to the thought of marching in their
hypothetical parade, and thus be able to perhaps imagine that some people might have similarly strong feelings about marching in a gay parade.
i guess i did. i don't view homosexuals as a radical group so the comparison is just trash in my opinion.
on a side note. i used to live in lakewood ohio. very small type burb, very large gay community. gay stores, gay parade, gay flags flown from
homes.
i would move back to lakewood in a hot second if i could. it was NEVER shoved in my face nor did i ever view any radical type stuff.
i shared a house with a lesbian lady and her girlfriend and a homosexual guy.
i used to go to the lesbian bar all the time but not the gay bar. i admit, in that environment i was uncomfortable. so, i didn't go.
i also admit that it was my hang up about being uncomfortable in the bar. this was years ago and today i don't think i would. i was never approached
in any way and i didn't see any guys dressed up in leather. it was a normal bar just filled with guys.
it's no big deal.
