We're barely a week into Pride Month and news of a"Straight Pride" Parade in Boston has many feeling"disappointed." The event's coordinator, Mark Sahady, took to Facebook May 30 to make the announcement that Straight Pride"will happen."
He continued:"The tentative date is 8/31 but will be finalized in the next few weeks. The proposed parade route is below. If you would like to come as an individual, march as a group, or bring a float or vehicle, then get in touch." Twitter users quickly seized upon the announcement mainly bashing the premise behind the event and calling"every day" Straight Pride day.
