The gay pride campaign of the gay rights movement has three main premises: that people should be proud of what they are, that sexual diversity is a gift, and that sexual orientation is inherent and cannot be intentionally altered. Marches celebrating gay pride (pride parades) are celebrated worldwide. Symbols of gay pride include the rainbow flag and pink and black triangles.The movement may arguably be seen as analogous to the "Black is Beautiful" movement in the United States during the 1970s. Just as African-Americans argued that beauty should not be solely defined by the standards of the ethnic majority, members of the gay pride movement argue that the inherent worth of homosexuality should not be defined in terms of the heterosexual majority.
Opposition
Social conservatives generally disagree with the premise that sexual orientation is inherent and fixed, and many of these persons thus oppose the gay pride campaign.
A portion of homosexual men and women reject the notion of gay pride, perceiving therein an undue emphasis on sex and a lack of discretion and modesty to the detriment of either public morals or the cause of gay rights. They believe it necessary to forgo what they perceive as strident activism in order to better integrate themselves into the mainstream. Others see gay pride as putting too much emphasis on the view that sexual orientation is fixed, and that as such, homosexuality is more of a sexual disability than a natural phenomenon. Still others see it as depreciative of the identity of the individual; that one's sexual orientaion should not be one's qiuntessential defining characteristic.
Critics of this position regard it as pandering to homophobia.

In Christian dogma, pride (or vanity) is excessive belief in one's own abilities, that interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is listed as one of the Seven Deadly Sins.In English, the term "pride" also has a more positive sense referring to self-respect, refusal to be humiliated, and joy in one's accomplishments. Some languages distinguish between the two senses of pride; in French, self-respect is fierté and vanity is orgueuil.
Even outside a religious environment, pride may constitute a weakness in an individual, since somebody who is proud is likely to be far more affected by public humiliation or defeat than somebody who is humble.

Arrogance is a particularly aggressive form of pride. An arrogant person is not only exceedingly confident in their own ability and value, but actively seeks to belittle other, "lesser", people in order to demonstrate it.

Pride parades are ceremonies held by the Queer community of a city to commemorate the struggle for gay liberation, gay rights, and gay pride.
Baton twirlers perform in the 2002 Divers-Cité pride parade in downtown Montreal The Queer community of a city will typically present an annual parade, sometimes in the context of a longer celebration including performances, dances, street parties, and the like. Most gay pride parades take place in the summer, particularly in June, to commemorate the Stonewall riots.
Pride parades evolved from protest marches held by Queer people to fight for their rights. Many parades still have this character, especially in less Queer-positive settings. However, in more Queer-positive cities, the parades take on an exclusively festive or even Mardi Gras-like character. Large parades often involve floats, dancers, drag queens, music over megaphones, and marching groups from Queer institutions of various kinds. Some particularly important pride parades are even funded by governments and corporate sponsors, and promoted as major tourist attractions for the cities that host them.
A portion of homosexual men and women regard pride parades, especially those of a more festive character, as vulgar flaunting of sexual orientation, charging them with an undue emphasis on sex and bizarre behaviour which they see as detrimental to the cause of gay rights. Others criticize this position, seeing it as pandering to homophobia, and arguing that heterosexuality takes centre stage the other 364 days of the year and that pride parades promote visibility and discussion of gay and lesbian issues. Still others argue that such parades are carnivals and that they should be taken as such rather than as representative of everyday gay and lesbian life.
Cities particularly noted for their pride parades include New York, San Francisco, Toronto, Montreal, and Sydney (see Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras)

John Locke | 1690 | But if they universally have a persuation, grounded upon manifest evidence, that designs are carrying on against their liberties, and the general course and tendency of things cannot but give them strong suspicions of the evil intention of their governors, who is to be blamed for it? Who can help it, if they, who might avoid it, bring themselves into this suspicion? Are the people to be blamed, if they have the sense of rational creatures, and can think of things no otherwise than as they find and feel them? And is it not rather their fault, who put things into such a posture, that they would not have them thought to be as they are? I grant, that the pride, ambition, and turbulency of private men have sometimes caused great disorders in commonwealths, and factions have been fatal to states and kingdoms.
