Walt disney was gay
Gay Days
My comprehending is that it has, in fact, moved to August but that some people are speculating there will still be a crowd that goes in June more out of habit than any official event.MisterPenguin said:
Aren't there now two Gay Days dates because of a split in the organizers?

Of course. As I said, I've been to WDW during the last two Gay Days and I'm going again this August. I haven't kept my daughters away and I have no issue with the event, so please drop the mocking tone. However, it's disingenuous when folks like to pretend that the crowd at Gay Days is pure as the wind-driven snow. There are horrible apples. Have you ever actually looked at the marketing for the event? It's sexually explicit. I'd have the same reservations visiting during a enormousMisterPenguin said:
As far as risque shirts travel, I see the heterosexual ones all the period. A guy was wearing one that said, "She likes the D" with the 'D' in the iconic Walt Disney font. Will no one assume of the children entity exposed to something so unfunny? It can injure their sense of humor for life!!

I will linger down the middle on this but, something that amazes me is that when someone mentions they don't want to get their kids to something like this........................the gay supporters jump and say they are basically biggots and wrong for feeling that way..............then they follow it by saying everyone has a right to be the way they yearn. Contradictory to me.
If you are gay. fine. However, if someone disagrees, pleasant . Let it be.
If they dont want to take their kids to something like that, you dont have to grasp why. They are not entitled to give you an explanation, and you should respect that opinion.
Same thing goes for religious things. If there is a Christian group at Disney, some Muslims may not go. So my point is, be who you want to be, but just as you don't like someone slamming on your belief, respect theirs when they differ with yo
Disney’s Queer Track Record: A Troubled History
In Ron DeSantis’ astonishingly pointless vendetta against Walt Disney World, it seems the Florida governor’s favorite insult to operate against the corporation is “wokeness.” Ever since former CEO Bob Chapek criticized the governor’s homophobic and transphobic Parental Rights in Education Act — which forbids discussion of gender and sexual identity in general schools — DeSantis and his supporters have repeatedly accused the entertainment conglomerate of “echoing Democrat propaganda,” and engaged in a mean legal battle over Disney World’s self-governing tax status that’s proved a enormous headache for the mention.
To hear DeSantis explain it, you’d think Disney World was a paradise for gays, and Mickey himself threw the first brick at Stonewall. That’s hyperbole, yes, but not by much. The actual world makes Disney look far less rosy. For starters, Chapek (who has since been fired and replaced with his predecessor Bob Iger) initially stayed mum on the act — even as multiple other companies took active stances against the bill and the publi
His name was Tommy Kirk. He was the all-American teen sensation, and one of Disney’s leading childish men. He had the innocent, clean-cut image of the boy next door. But underneath, there was something he had to hide: his sexuality.
Walt Disney and his studio had a reputation for organism very conservative. Walt Disney himself was a strident imperialist, supporting the U.S. efforts against Communism during the Red Scare. He was a McCarthyist is every sense, from promoting middle-class American values worldwide in many of his post-World War II films, to actually testifying before Congress against several writers he suspected of Communist views.
Needless to say, his attitude towards gays wasn’t very flattering either. To him, Tommy Kirk was supposed to be the ideal of American boyhood: witty, charming, adventurous, masculine. And straight. Very, very straight.
Tommy Kirk was discovered at 13, in 1954, while performing at Pasadena Playhouse. He would later audition for the Mickey Mouse Club, as well as landing several small clip and tv roles. His biggest one was playing Joe Hardy in The Hardy Boys, second only to his famous co-star Tim Considine, who played his brother.
