July, Straight Pride Month?

CityFella, ,

He said his column “That’s Life” in the Dixon Independent Voice on friday was “tongue in cheek.   Ted Hickman, the vice mayor of Dixon, California (23 miles southwest of Sacramento), Declared July 1, was the start of  Straight Pride Month.

In his column he writes “ We are different from them.  We work, have families, (and babes we make)  enjoy the love the company (and marriage) of the opposite sex and don’t flaunt our differences  dressing up like faries and prancing by the thousands in a parade” 

The Vice Mayor defended his column after several readers in this small city of twenty thousand. called the piece homophobic.  He said his piece had nothing to do with his position and thin skinned people took offence to his column.

His position they. (LGBTQ) have their pride month why can’t we have ours?

This is not really legally anti anything; instead its a pro family ; and proud to be a straight American, and me expressing a private opinion, so there!

Last month, he wrote.  ” I’m proud to be a heterosexual, monogamous, married to the opposite sex, straight individual that knows what  goes where and why.   AND that he has lesbian tendencies.

Moved to the Big Tomata in the nineties from San Francisco. No Suburbs for me with its single colored houses and lawns and the excitement of pulling out my trash can once a week. I'm a CityFella , a part time New Yorker. I'm happiest in the Center City where people the streets and people are alive. I'm still waiting to buy a 34th floor condo somewhere downtown/Midtown with a nightclub. "Hurry I'm old" My politics are somewhere in the middle with a needle that constantly moves. I'm too liberal to be a Republican and too conservative to be a Democrat. Everything interests me . I've come to love Sacratomato, Its a nice town in cheap sensible shoes .
