I was gonna sit here and type a whole column on why is it that Kink is welcome (and necessary) at Pride. But then I realized I don't need to defend Kinksters. They have always had a place at the table.
Michael is right...
Happy Pride!
XOXO
P.S. You tell 'em, Miss Gaynor...
Love the tune, and the first Pride WAS a riot!
ReplyDeleteSame!
DeleteI had forgotten about that song. And the first Pride was NOT some demure situation. There were bricks thrown, FFS!
XOXO

ReplyDeleteMichael always explains so well. We are what we are and should be proud of that always. Kink should always have a place at the table.
XOXO 👨🏼❤️💋👨🏽
He does!
DeleteIt's like Gay 101. Pride is a demonstration of unity and individuality. Kink has allowed queer people to unite in their uniqueness, so why not?
XOXO
Isn't there room for everyone at Pride?
ReplyDeletehaving kinks and queer at a pride seems to me the least one can expect.
DeleteThere should be room for EVERYONE, Xersex, there should be!
DeleteAnd you are right, being proud and being kinky are the least one can expect at Pride.
XOXO
The First Pride was a Riot! So well put!
ReplyDeleteI know, right?
DeletePeople forget what is it that they were fighting for during the Stonewall Riots: oppression.
XOXO

ReplyDeleteOMG! LMAO! These guys are a hoot. "Was she on Drag Race?" LOL. Not only was Gloria NOT famous for being on Drag Race, "I Am What I Am" wasn't originally a disco song.
Gaylings could learn a lot from the original 1983 production of "La Cage Aux Folles." Sing it out, George Hearn!! Did you know there were only 2 women in that entire chorusline??? Sing and tap dance, ***in heels.*** Pride, indeed!
XOXO
P.S. I'm still giggling.
They are too funny.
DeleteTheir referents cut right to the chase and show people their foolish ways. And I have seen the 1973 movie and the remake with Lane and Williams but I've never seen the play. Thanks for posting the video of the song! Now I wanna see the whole thing. And I was floored when only two of the dancers actually had long hair! Subtle and effective!
XOXO
Citibank butt plugs! LOL
ReplyDeleteOh, he let corporations HAVE IT!
DeleteXOXO
I have always loved that song!!!! I use it every mix.
ReplyDeleteI had forgotten how cool it is!
DeleteHeh. Without intending it, two Gloria Gaynor songs in a week!
Pride, indeed!
XOXO
Happy Pride, Sixpence!! Hope you are having a great month.
ReplyDeleteHappy Pride, Mr. Shife!
DeleteThanks for being an Ally!
XOXO
Happy Pride!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Pride!
DeleteXOXO
Love "First Pride was a Riot"
ReplyDeleteIt was.
DeleteThose Queens were fed up with the Police fuckery and society's oppression and... rioted. There' s no way around it. And we are all the better because they did.
XOXO

DeleteAnd, now, all we have to do is hang on to it! That may require more riots. I hope not, but things are not looking good with the latest fuckery out of SCOTUS.
