I don't know what my mother would do, but I know my father openly hates homosexuals." Like many gay men, Viktor didn't want to attend the parade on Saturday. "I just want to be treated like everyone else, and going around and screaming I am gay isn't going to help me." Says Sergei, who is married to a woman but advertises for liaisons with...
