gay pride (uncountable)

  1. A feeling of pride in one's homosexuality; embrace of a positive gay identity and rejection of shame imposed by homophobia.
    • 1971, Donn Teal, The gay militants, page 85:
      Gay Pride, for all its need to show off, did not alienate old-liners of the homophile movement, nor uncommitted young and middle-aged gays, nor even old and/or closety homosexuals.

    My first gay pride was in 1998 and I've been to every one since.
