How are Gay people treating Disneyland that makes it so offensive to you? I wouldn't assume too much about Walt. He was a bit a head of his time in a lot of his thinking, careful he might have actually liked his park to be enjoyed by all different types of people.

Originally Posted By melekalikimaka I'm curious what you expect DL to do? Stop people w/red shirts from entering the park? If the shirts only say "gay days" or something equally as harmless, what can DL do? It is pretty clear that DL doesn't sponsor this event in anyway. How can they stop this event?
Originally Posted By Capstan Homosexuals should find another word, besides "gay," to identify themselves. I'm gay sometimes; sometimes I'm sad; but I'm never homosexual. Gay is a perfectly good word to describe happy, blithe or frisky tentencies, and shouldn't be twisted into a biologic connotation. Let's call a spade a spade, shall we?
Originally Posted By Ursula <---is holding her tongue right now. Whatever shall we call them? Homosexual is the correct term.

Originally Posted By melekalikimaka It certainly depends on what you mean by calling something or someone a spade. Why not say that you are happy, blithe or frisky? Why do get to use the word for multiple things yet it's not okay for someone else to use it? C'mon, it's a word, is it really that big of a deal? I used to wear a pin that said "Ho ho ho" during Xmas. I'm not upset that people use the word ho to describle tramps. BTW, I've never heard anyone use the term "gay" for frisky.
Originally Posted By YourPalEd I think it's a little late in time to try to regain the use of gay as meaning happy. I think even cary grant makes a gay joke in 1939 (i think that is the date, off the top of my head) howard hawks, "Bringing up Baby" where he cary is wearing a womans robe and is asked what he is doing and he says, "ive just gone gay all of a sudden."

"I resent YOU people using that word. That's OUR word for making fun of YOU." Well, I guess no one ever claimed that there weren't some real Homer Simpsons walking around on this earth. D'Oh! ;-)
