Hello! I am hoping you are having a magical day!<\/p>\n

In exactly 100 days I will be boarding a plane to Orlando to partake in one of Florida’s biggest, gayest events: Gay Days at Disneyworld. Thousands upon thousands of red-shirt wearin’ homos converge on the parks over five days either to make a political statement, a safety-in-numbers thing or just a damn great weekend of fun (depending on your idea of fun). Meanwhile, unsuspecting straight people, when confronted with homosexuality and who had no clue the parks would be overrun with gays of all types, will react with whatever knee-jerk reaction they have inbred to them (depending on their perspective, of course). Some will have open arms and smiles and some with shock and indignation<\/a>. This Advocate article, to me, seems to blow the whole behaviour thing out of proportion, but I am sure there were a few disgruntle parents there, it would be a miracle if there weren’t. When we went we were offered positive comments of support and glee from straight and gay alike because of our t-shirts. We had great conversations with people in line wondering why we had pictures of each other as 10 year olds on our chest. <\/p>\n

I guess you could say we’re in the “Just here for fun and say Hi” category. After two years away, I am jonesing for some teacup ride.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
