Some 7,500 activists and supporters of LGBT rights marched through the French port of Marseille at the start of Europride on July 20.

Nothing says Pride like rainbow-feathered fauxhawks.

All is vanity.

Drumming up some Pride.
Unfurling the rainbow flag.

Fan-dancing lives.

Les Soeurs of Perpetual Indugence pose.

Drumming up a daddy.

It's called a Phrygian cap. We think it's Phrygian awesome.

Let's hear it for the ladies.

Pride at the Vieux Port in Marseille.
