STL Pride Fest (Photos)

My daughter wanted to attend the St. Louis Pride Fest so we picked up a friend of hers and attended.

I forgot my own phone (which has a slightly better camera) so I used my daughter's but it looks like they turned out okay.


It got busier, okay?


My daughter and her friend. Close your eyes, dear.


Well, at least decriminalize it.


Sign up for this, sign up for that.


Very colorful and...what the hells' that on her face?!

I'll post more in the form of replies.

Ya I got it off amazon.
I thought it would be fun to stand out at pride.
I'm don't love bane from batman. I'm into cybergoth outfits. The rainbow umbrella helped but I mostly have that because I burn easily.

Born with red hair and I must still have the red hair gene that makes me oh-so-sensitive to the Sun.

My daughter's friend is attending the parade today and promised to send us pictures. If he keeps to that, I'll post those, too.

So then I'm right about being wrong.

It shows how much our culture is changing when even the 'Big Ones' want to advertise their support.

Granted, their support often extends little beyond the event itself. Outside that, it's usually something like, "Sure, we support the gay community. Just...keep it quiet, okay?"
