Openly gay guy I used to work with went to a couple of gay pride and lgbt marches last year. He was deeply scathing of them saying that in his opinion they did little to further the sexuality awareness campaigns. In fact he always said that they just seemed like an excuse for an orgy. Then again he was/is a fairly straight sort of gay guy with a long term civil partner. He'd tell you that his sexuality was a personal issue but no big deal...nothing to hide but nothing to broadcast either and certainly not worthy of spending government money on a private matter. Nice bloke.
