Super Happy Fun America (SHFA) Boston is organizing a parade, the first of its kind: The Straight Pride Parade!
The parade organizers — whose slogan is “it’s great to be straight”- advocates on behalf of the straight community in order to foster respect and awareness with people from all walks of life.
“I agree it is unusual to have something like this, but a lot of things seem unpopular at first but then they become mainstream,” John Hugo, the president of Super Happy Fun America, said at the news conference, according to the New York Times. “We don’t hate anyone, we just want to have our own celebration just like everybody else has a right to. All people from all communities are welcome as long as they show respect.”
Milo Yiannopoulos is set to be the grand marshal of the Boston Straight Pride Parade on Aug. 31.

I think this will catch on here in Australia. It's just a matter of time. One thing for sure is that there won't be any public nudity, or ugly costumes or mockery of the religious (unless it's sabotaged by trouble makers). Already there is growing backlash from the gay community, ugly trolling of the organizers, as well as fake Facebook pages set up by angry trolls.
