Mardi Gras: but not for everyone : Comments
By Jamie Taylor, published 14/3/2014Same-gender attracted is a term that he uses, not homosexual, gay or queer. For him it is a disposition that he has but he does not want it to define or prescribe who he is.

I would suggest that your friend organise an event for same-sex attracted celibate people and then put in an application for inclusion in the festival. Or, organise a float for the parade itself.
The recent inclusion of intersex individuals in MardiGras has come about because they as a group got together and started organising and actively engaged with the organisation.
As with the gay experience, it wasn't until people started coming out and living honestly and openly did opinion start to change.
