Gay Parade Prague

Once I asked a friend: Why there is no gay parade in Prague? The answer I got was short: We do not need it! But is it really true? Are Gays and Lesbians in Prague so satisfied and without hunger of a better life?
To answer those questions we have to ask first: For what does the gay parade stands for? 
Gay parades were created to say to the people that they should be proud of their sexual orientation and gender identity and these are inherent and cannot be intentionally changed. Gay parades exist to fight against discrimination and teenager suicides, against domestic and public violence, to support gay rights and the improvement of our life style in the social environment. Some of you might be surprised if I tell you that gay parades are the most powerful movement that creates huge income potential, increase tourism, jobs possibilities.

Are you the type of guy who does not want to be seen in a gay parade? So, don´t go there, or better, put a nice mask or dress up as a frog, chicken, drag queen or religious nun. But be nice enough to show your support in any small way to those people who are a little braver then you and do not want hide anymore their own identity, feelings and desires.
Gay parades are about you! Does not matter if you are gay or straight, it´s about to make your life better even you do not know that. The guys who showed their faces in Brno gay parade, Bratislava, Amsterdam, Sao Paulo and all around the world, they were there not only for themselves, but also for you, for me, and for all next generations.

Let us celebrate who we are, before people forget and start to treat us badly again. If we do not have a gay parade in Prague, even this is one of the most beautiful city in Europe and we are in XXI century, at least let´s start to celebrate in small actions like happened last week at LUI Magazine Birthday party.
Web pages like facebook, iboys, gayRomeo, amateur and many others are full of nice guys, looking for friends, relationship, sex and whatever. Many of them are lonely, depressed, and unhappy! What it the point? Come on guys and girls, don´t waste your life in the dark, afraid, feeling sorry for yourself. Go out, meet people, go to parties and take your straight friends to gay parties too, why not? Everybody is welcome!

 I don´t know if we going to have a gay parade one day, until there, let´s get together somewhere, somehow...and do Something, for us!

This is what gay parade is about, do you really think Prague does not need one?
