OKAY
I've kept my happy little gay mouth shut up until now but let me respond to this one.
PLEASE   FEEL FREE to have a straight-pride or blue pride or green pride event!  HEll, let's have a people pride event!
 
We all have things about ourselves that, through life, we are afraid to admit or talk about.  For some people it might be bedwetting.  For some people it might be the fact that they fathered a child and no one knows.  For some people it may be that they're gay.  Having been gay for 25 years and still not being TOTALLY out, I know how hard it is.  I know there are probably 16 and 17 year olds reading this who may need someone to say it's okay.  There may be people reading this who don't think it's okay.  That's okay.  Just don't get miffed that someone took the time to organize a day when anyone who feels that way can get together and say "hey, we're okay!"   (If you want to have National I'm That Babby's Daddy Day... YOU'RE ALLOWED!)
 
That's America!
 
You know, that place where we're free to assemble and celebrate ANYTHING WE WANT.  Hell, if you like Colgate toothpaste and you wanna celebrate it... GO FOR IT!   And I'm sure Fred wouldn't mind if you invited other Colgate loving artists to join you in that celebration.  I'll even find out when Colgate was first invented so we can do it properly!
 
Just celebrate LIFE people!  Gay, straight, black, yellow, Colgate using, Pepsi drinking...  Who cares?!  We're all here to do something... who knows what that is.. and all of us have been brought together in this artist's community to do what we do together... So, do it!  And do it well! 
 
I think I've made my point.  
Anti-straight... heh...  that made me giggle

a "stright pride" event it would be considered
prejudice. Remove me from the e-mail list immediately!
