michaeld Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Thanks to Heart for starting this. This is a work in progress. The idea is that the above is a draft for what we'll shortly be putting on the page http://www.asexuality.org/home/worldpride2014.html. When we need to update the latter, we'll update Heart's post first and then the page itself. I will make a few edits to Heart's post and then go ahead. If anyone has any other suggestions for what we should be adding to this page, feel free to post them here, or PM Heart, Robin L or myself. Link to post Share on other sites
