Last Saturday I went to see the gay pride parade. I just watched the people marching past me in the West Street but didn't follow them to the party in the park.
Brought up in a conservative Asian country, I felt kind of culture shock when I saw some men dressing up as women and wearing explosive clothes. However, when I saw a sign on a bus which says: "What I am needs no excuses", I was really touched. At that time I felt something called freedom. Even though I don't understand why those people choose the same gender to be mates, I am not against them cos in this world only people themselves could decide who they are.

ReplyDelete"Really touching comment, Shiny. The closest I've got to a moon festival is eating the cake. I wondered if it's a bit like Christmas minus the consumerism."
