"Those who take issue with Gay Pride, a single day a year of conspicuous celebration in various cities, have actually found the least racist way to express their rejection of homosexuals : perhaps he is a little ashamed of it, and therefore limits himself to expressing his dissent for what’s defined as a carnival. Furthermore, it may be that he doesn't like the idea that homosexuals don't live in shame and suffering, secluded and marginalized, but are sometimes very happy. My problem remains: that of never having understood why the existence of homosexuals still creates problems today. I don't think for sexual reasons, given that hetero couples who are not extremely pious and exclusively reproductive in bed do more or less the same things and with the same enthusiasm, when there is one. (Natalia Aspesi)"
