Oh what a Night!

It's Monday morning and we are sitting at home relaxing after a fantastic weekend of partying and excitement. The party was probably the best that I have ever been to - the music, the shows and the people were really cool. We decided that this year we would have as much rest on the Saturday as possible so we would be as rested as possible and could stay up for the full night.

The Parade

The parade was quite different from other years and had a very much political aspet to it. The parade highlighted some of the inequalities in terms of same sex and mixed sex realtionships such as supperannuation, IVF, adoption and a very common theme of loss of community. This is something that I have thought about before the loss of sense of identity in gay and lesbian community. I have to agree that the gay and lesbian community seems to have lost it's way over the last couple of years and is serously in danger of losing it's identity. That worries me because it means that the younger generation of gays and lesbians have no where to go when they are coming out that they can meet oter gay guys except the net. Now don't get me wrong I think the net is great for gay guys, but I also think that it can nevr replace the physical clubs, pubs and other places for meeting people. Anyway the parade was good but it ahs been steadily declining over the last few years.

The Party

I have to say that this year's party was the best ever, it truly was! There were less straight couples on the dancefloors this year and this meant that we weren't constantly surrounded by girls pushing us around and straight guys getting really nasty if we even looked at them sideways. The music was outstanding and the dj's outdid themselves with great sets that got us really pumping! The vibe of the night was so very exciting and the people were beautiful as always!
