Commentary on the coverage of the Gay pride

Unsungpsalm thinks that “normal” gays are underrepresented by the media.

So all that is left eventually are hijras and cross-dressers, fighting the battle for equal rights, all alone; and then we feel that the media neglects us “normal” beings and focuses on them. Of course the media would focus on them! They are the majority in the minority; at least visibly. And they are the eye-catchers. They caught the attention of the people, during the Rainbow Pride. Without them, it would be a group of normal civilians marching for any mundane issue be it the Narmada Damn, Gender Equality, OBC Quotas. Would the latter have captured the people’s interest?
