Can €uro come out and play?

I do hope this is a joke, as we are all aware that any party at their place includes help from both husband and wife.

Still unsure which rally I will attend.

I don't know how I feel about that. Isn't this basically saying, "We'll go hide so you can't see us"?!?!? Isn't that backwards?

Let's pretend that gay people are oh I don't know, purple-skinned. and for some reason, the non-purple people don't like purple people. If the purple people said, "OK we want to show you how much impact we make to society, so on this one day, we are going to stay indoors!"

Well for people who are purple-averse, wouldn't that be, "Well, that's a relief, I don't have to look at purple people today."

Wouldn't it be better if the purple-aversion people saw when they stepped outside that the world was full of purple, pink, red, green, and orange people, all getting along together?
