No relation. Just a fondness for the sculpture and the song.
Today was the Gay Pride Parade in Stockholm. I have mixed emotions about it. On the one hand it´s sad that there has to be a Gay Pride week instead of people being accepted for who they are on a more daily basis. On the other hand it´s fun to see so many people being happy and loved (for the most part) during the parade. It´s also cool to see the huge crowd who comes out to cheer on and enjoy the parade.
A lot of groups in society “comes out” during the parade. There´s Gay and Lesbian doctors. Gay and lesbian Police, Politicians, Smurfs. Etc etc. What makes me happiest and who usually gets huge rounds of applauds are “Proud parents of gay children”.
But. The coolest of them all are always the lesbian bikers!
We said good bye. It meant fare well. We were not aware it did at the time. Cabaret Voltaire sums it up, at least the after taste.
