Prejudice
"Are you prejudiced?" asks StapMyVitals. Have you been a victim of prejudice? Are you a columnist for a popular daily newspaper? Don't bang on about how you never judge people on first impressions - no-one will believe you.

Kind of agreement
I get the point about the marching, I've never been inclined to join some of my friends in the whole parade and march thing.
I'm like you, in that I don't say that I'm proud to be gay specifically. I'm proud of who I am these days, and being gay is just a small part of that.
However, I do go to a few gay pride events, not for the political aspect of it, but because I like being around hundreds and hundreds of other gay people, and knowing that I am completely accepted in that environment (my family, some of my childhood friends, and a hell of a lot of people in the area where I grow up are not at all accepting of the gayers). There's not much of a gay scene where I live, so it's a good night out too.
Besides, what's not to like about hundreds of lesbians kissing in the street? ;)
