That doesn’t seem like a great business plan, Hulka. So Disney World tells all the straight folks to NOT come for a week in June, during their busy season - thus assuring that the gays have the park to themselves, and Disney takes a big financial hit.
Also, since Disney doesn’t organize the gay events, I think it would be hard to offer to sign people up for them - and if they did, would’nt that then have Disney expressly cooperating with the Gay Days group? And further angering everyone else...
All I’m trying to say here is that Disney is in a tough situation, and there’s not a great solution for it.
Never said that. I am sure there are all sorts of straight families that are liberal and democrats that have no issue with exposing their children to the open perversions that takes place during gay week.
“Also, since Disney doesn’t organize the gay events, I think it would be hard to offer to sign people up for them - and if they did, wouldn't that then have Disney expressly cooperating with the Gay Days group?”
Disney would not be endorsing “gay” discounts, they would be demonstrating tolerance and sensitivity to their largest demographic: straight families looking for wholesome family fun.
Disney doesn't organize the event but they do offer group discounts for all sorts of organizations and such, and many gay organizations (and other organizations/groups) do have discounts set up all the time, so, it is normal when making a booking that a company asks if you are part of “groups such-and-such.”
“All I’m trying to say here is that Disney is in a tough situation, and there’s not a great solution for it.”
Not a great solution, for sure, but it is a solution nonetheless. Things will continue to get worse and worse unless something is done. Talk about angering people, there are a heck of a lot more straights than gays, and you are angering your major clientele by not somehow mentioning the gay week.
