Perhaps you heard this past weekend was a big one for gay pride? All around the world, earth’s GLBTs were showing space aliens how much more colorful we are than straights. So we decided to take a global tour and stop by some of our favorite cities for a look at how they were celebrating gay pride. We couldn’t catch them all, so if we missed your city (likely!) please embed some of your photos in the comments below. (Above: Scene from Seattle)

My little hometown in Idaho had its very first pride this year. Twin Falls Idaho, pop 40 thou, redneck farming….and it was their first pride. While it’s not on the scale of NYC or Toronto, it’s still pretty cool. Denver Pride was great this year too btw.

@Geoff M: VERY cool. My hometown has a pop of 5,000 redneck farmers! I would totally travel back to support them if they ever have a Pride. Of course, there it will probably be three gay teens running for their lives while holding a rainbow flag. lol

You know sometimes you can get really frustrated with the queer community over a lot of the stupid shit it tends to do; however, Pride always seems to wash the it away and give us a fresh start.

SF Pride was the best. Ongina from RuPaul’s Drag Race took the stage.

I have to say, Pride in NYC this year was more of a joke than years past. Nothing but liqour ads and tangy queens.

Nice collection of pics. Makes me looks forward to the coming weekend – Christopher Street Day in Germany. I’ll be joining the mass in Cologne!

We just had the first Gay Pride March here in Redding, CA and I am so happy to have been able to attend it. We had a blast and there was a great turnout. I hope in years to come it will be big like in Phoenix and San Fran.

So awesome to see Pride from around the world. Didnt even know New Delhi had a Pride parade. Good for them and good for them now that the Indian High Court has FINALLY decriminalized homosexuality there.
The activists there now want full mariage rights. Will equality come to the largest democracy in the world before us? Some days, I wonder.
President Obama…are you hearing us?
