2007 Manila Pride March

Christmas is just around the corner. I’m sure some of you have already started doing your shopping or have at least started creating your wish lists. But before Christmas, there is something that we, gay men in the Philippines, are looking forward to: The Annual Pride March.

The annual Pride March is different from the ones that are being held mid-year in Malate or Makati. (I think those are called Pride Parties?). This march is an annual gathering of Filipinos who embrace diversity and equality. This is the annual Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Pride March! It is a celebration of LGBT pride and solidarity!

Anyone and everyone can join! Be you a boy, be you a girl, be you gay, be you lesbian, be you bi - you are invited to the event! And no, there isn’t any dress code. You can come as you are or come as someone else! Bring your own posse too: mother, father, brother sister, fag hag, neighbor, pet, anyone! This event aims to raise consciousness about LGBT issues and concerns, while having fun of course.

Pride is about dignity. Own it.

Flaunt your rights.

Celebrate your freedom.

Join the 2007 Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Pride March on December 8, 2007.
