This slogan comes straight from a placard held up by a campaigner at the UK’s first Pride in 1972. It reflects the prejudice of the time that saw gay people as disgusting, and uses that to play on the idea of a Gay Rights revolution. The slogan demonstrates the wicked, defiant sense of humour that you find in communities who are discriminated against.
