They’re typically both. Also it’s not that inconveniencing to drive up a different street for a couple weeks. The majority of the places closed down due to the celebrations are in the village anyway where if you live there that’s just a part of life. The parades do happen but it’s just over the course of one or two days. Usually one MASSIVE parade with a couple of smaller ancillary ones.
Uh, it is — but I would say that about any event that causes me to take a different route. I think the only exception for me would be protests, I hope I don’t need to detail which protests.
Like I’m not going to go out of my way to stop pride events/parades. My girlfriend is bi, she’s actually the only reason this is something I even think about. I think it would actually be pretty cool to see a big parade with floats and celebrations, on a weekend when I don’t have to go to work.
Edit: also, the events where I live are mostly downtown — it’s not contained in midtown or whatever the village equivalent in a city would be.

Better make an exception then because pride parades are deffo protests.
Ah, are they supposed to be protests? I guess I have some reading to do, I wasn’t aware — I thought it was more a celebration rather than a protest.
Edit: sure did, I had no idea pride parades have their roots in protests. Learned something new, thank you.
