Wednesday Florida Gay Rights Blogging

Gay Days organizers at Disney parks in Orlando began in 1991 to celebrate gay pride on the first Saturday in June. As most people know, Disney is a relatively gay friendly company and there are many GLBT brothers and sisters who work for this organization. The first Gay Days attracted several thousand people. Today, over 100,000 attendees each year attend. The event has gone off without too many protests or complaints. Attendees wear red shirts to designate them as members of the tribe. Straight folks who happen to wear a red shirt and are uncomfortable are given free shirts by Disney.
