I think is a smorgasboard, hofbrau, whatever goes. This parade is offered in a sorta male gay section of town, plus the male gay constituency is more active, the rest of the atendencees are just overtly sexual, which includes cross dressers, and anyone else who can't wait for haloween to put on costumes. Then because there is not a dress code others show up like me. Some try to fit in some just watch. In general a large precentage of the guys like guys and dress the part. BUT a large percentage of the girls like guys also and dress the part. It's definitely something. Once you get over the shock and relax it's quite a show. And nice costumes! Plus the money is donated to charity, and it not too expensive. Bsteph
