Did others get in any Pride stuff? Basically just went to the Night March, Butch Femme Salon (was great!), Trans March, went to watch my partner march in the Dyke March and also went to see the Yes Men perform on Saturday night.

A decent Pride but way too crowded...much more than usual. Also occasionally annoyed by the excessive amount of straight people with "straight" stickers and "straight but not narrow" body paint. Usually they only come out in numbers on the Sunday for the parade, but unfortunately this year they were at much more events :s Definitely an uncomfortable vibe on a few occasions. If you're really an ally you don't need a sticker or a sign to say that you are as though you just want to tell the world "I'm not one of them." Also obnoxious, loud straight cis men = fail.
