Get Your Pride On

166607756_515140aaaa.jpg

This weekend is the annual Capital Pride celebration in Washington, DC. A weekend when rainbow-colored clouds float over our fair city, tranny godmothers dust the streets in glitter, and 20-something straight couples decide to show just how cool they are by cheering on the shirtless line-dancers on the Remington's float.

Pride used to be political. And in some places, it still is. But DC Pride is more like an excuse for our uptight city to get drunk on margaritas at 10:30am and have sex with an exboyfriend/girlfriend, coworker, best friend of 10 years, neighborhood barista, that guy at the video store...you get the idea. So. Be proud. You are one of da' gayz.
