Leg-end Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 No don't be stupid. Why would anyone do that? Well like i say can you expand on your previous comment? There is a program on ITV about bouncers, and last week it focused on Manchester Gay Pride event and that is exactly what they were doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandyra Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 RACE CARD????? It's a FACT that homophobia is still rife in this country, hense the reason we have separate 'gay' bars and 'gay' hotels. Gay people don't feel safe on the whole and there's a very good reason for that. And I'm not playing anything, merely stating a fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leg-end Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Why does it have to be gay, straight, black or white - just a massive big parade in honour of Sheffield will suffice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick2 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Please don't think you have heard the last about this though, it will happen by hook or by crook. It won't, the Sheffield gay population isn't interested enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandyra Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 Do you really think so? I'm interested to know why, through fear of trouble or as someone said earlier, there isn't a scene to be proud of? It seems to me there is a disctinct lack of unity in Sheffields scene, what I have seen of it. Ok we don't have many bars and they're not ideally together like those of Leeds and Manc, but is it not the people that matter in a community? Is everyone who's gay in Sheffield really that fed up?

SpiderPete Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Is everyone who's gay in Sheffield really that fed up? My answer to that is No. But thats my view. I see, as usual these type of threads get side-tracked as usual, I forgot what the original question was now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the same program. I didn't see shagging in the street! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandyra Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 I was just wondering if any gay sheffielders out there were interested in putting together some kind of gay pride event for next year as we don't seem to have had one before. It seems odd as other smaller places have, such as Donny this year. Which I am now told would have been in Sheff but was moved for lack of support. Why?

The nearest we are gonna get to anything remotely gay event is Viva Climax, but they just do the same thing every eyar, needs spicing up a bit. As for support for a gay pride would mean the co-operation of all the gay venues, and I can see that will never happen, unfortunately. Look what happened to Homo-Mad week.
