How Gay Days Made a Home at Disney World
Time ^ | June 21, 2010 | John Cloud

Like pretty much every child who walks up Main Street U.S.A. at Disney World for the first time, Alix, 10, and her brother Evan, 11, can barely contain their anticipation. Evan wants to ride Space Mountain. Alix is so excited, she can't even say what she wants to do. She is jumping up and down. It's a typical Disney scene, except that Evan, Alix and their sister Jamie, a desultory 4-year-old shielded from the sun in a stroller, have come to the Magic Kingdom with their two moms. It is the 20th anniversary of Gay Days at Disney, and the whole family has traveled from Hickory Corners, Mich., to celebrate.

Gay Days is now one of the largest gay-pride events in the world. According to Watermark, a Florida-based gay newspaper that has been covering Gay Days since it started, about 150,000 people attended this June's six-day gathering, which included 17 pool parties, a business expo, a comic-book convention, a film festival, an after-hours trip to a Disney water park (think dance music and guys in very small swimsuits), bobble-head painting and tie-dyeing for the kids, rivers of alcohol (and some other substances) for the adults and, on June 5, the great culmination: 20,000 to 30,000 lesbians, gays and their families and friends descending on Disney World, everyone clad in red shirts to signify their presence.

Gay Days started modestly in 1991 as a way for some 3,000 lesbians and gays from central Florida to become more visible — on one day,

Gay day or gay week is in June. Tell people you know to never go there in June if they are planing to go.

Sex acts and drug taking in the woods at night—funny I never saw this when we went there but that was NOT during gay week. Why can’t they show some manners for a change. If they wanted to go to Disney, they don’t have to be so “flamboyant” about it. If gay couple were not drawing attention to themselves nobody would know the difference, they would just look like a couple of guys touring Disney. Nobody else acts like that in public. What is the matter with these people?

“if the “buttless chaps” story is really true,”

It is true. My son saw it and pointed out the guy to his supervisor (lesbian. . .sort of. . .more on that below*). The supervisor said to let it go, not to make an issue of it, not to contact security. So, yes, they do have a dress code, rigorously imposed except for homosexuals. Public sex acts are also illegal on the park, but for homosexuals, they treat Disney World like, well, a Disney World of their own.

*The “lesbian” supervisor was married to a man for about 5 years when she decided she was lesbian. She moved out and in with a lesbian. When the supervisor decided she was not lesbian and tried to leave, she was assaulted by her “lover” and the lovers lesbian friends. The supervisor was tied up and nearly beaten to death. Her face is now chewed meat, according to my son.

Yup, no worries EXCEPT during gay week.

Yes, there is. The cruise takes place just before gay week.

Post 41.

Interesting that one poster is saying if Disney offers the gay discount that would mean Disney endorses the perversion, whereas you are saying if Disney offers the gay discount they would doing the exact opposite.

Then you won't have any trouble pointing to evidence of this. After all, there's tons of information about the Gay Days at the park. And simply saying that some gays go on a regular cruise doesn't constitute a gay cruise.

I don’t know about any ‘gay discount’. What I am saying that if Disney warns regular families away from either park during ‘gay days’ the gay lobby will feast on their flesh with their lawyers.

That’s what I said. Giving a discount to homos? To me, they run the similar risk from pro-family groups.

Group discounts are group discounts, and if those groups are Amish or cyber-homo perverts with hydraulic dildos strapped to every limb is immaterial. A group is a group.

Now, allowing orgies in the wave pool once they are there shouldn’t be tolerated. Neither should we allow the Amish to spontaneously break out in barn-building on the savannahs of their new animal park.
