Last week a groundbreaking event happened back home in India - in four major cities, gay pride marches took place to show the country that India's gay culture is truly real and here to stay. There was plenty of media coverage, but I am going to do a number on the papers and websites that have covered the event. Take a look at an article here as well as a post on Sam's Blog. Is there any reason why only pictures of cross-dressers are shown? Is that the image the media wants to portray - that all gay men want to do is put on a frock? I have absolutely no problem with any of my transsexual folk, but there is more to gay life than trying to find the right bra. And what's with using inverted commas when speaking about Gay Pride? Does the media not acknowledge that Pride is an actual event? Next time, why don't the do the same when talking about our "Independence Day"?
