It's not superiority AT ALL.

Again, how many teens kill themselves because they are ashamed of being gay?

And how many teens kill themselves because they are ashamed of being white? Or heterosexual?

There *NEEDS* to be public displays of acceptance so that gay people understand that they are welcome in our society and they need not be ashamed of who they are attracted to.

There has been no historical shaming of heterosexuality, so kids are not calling into suicide hot lines saying they are contemplating killing themselves because they are heterosexual. There is no need for a heterosexual pride parade because that is already considered the norm. There does need to be a gay pride parade, PARTICULARLY in countries where there is still strong homophobic tendencies, so that gays there can feel normal as well.
