gay pride

Possibly modelled on black pride.

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.

2. A pride festival or pride parade.

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