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.

"I regret being such a sissy — so nervous, so bloody shy," Martin says (https://www.instagram.com/p/Bi2H435H412/?utm_source=ig_embed) in the inspirational video produced for 5 Gum.
