This year's march and festival theme was called "transcending the dichotomy" and sought to bridge the divide between the lesbian and transgender communities.
"They [transgender people] often have no place at a dyke march, but most of them have spent most of their lives as dykes," McIntosh said, adding that "being all inclusive, transcending the dichotomy was a very important factor."
