Hey! Good news! 86-year-old gay man attends Pride for the first time

Pride season is upon us, and with it come the sobs.

This season’s earliest nomination for “Best Video That Makes Me Weep” goes to 86-year-old Martin, who recently attended his very first gay Pride. Martin was 85 when he finally came out to his family and friends.
