Sexual Orientation

[ArizonaGuy]

Anyone going to be hitting up West Coast Bash this year??? It'll be my first TPR event and I'm a little nervous about going alone.

[Astrojack]

I'm going to WCB by myself as well. Looks like a lot of people will be going alone based on the main WCB forum. We shouldn't have any issues of finding someone to ride/hang out with

I am really glad to see so many gay coaster enthusiasts like me!!! BTW..

 

I will be coming over to the US from Australia and will be at CP on the 5th & 6th Oct (with my sis), SFGAdv on the 12th Oct (alone) and SFMM on Columbus day (alone).... If anyone wants to join me, some company at SFMM, SFGAdv or CP would awesome!!!

^ I could potentially get to Six Flags Great Adventure on October 12

[Bilby_AUS]

OHHHH!! That would be awesome!!!

Who's going?!

[alilstronger]

^If I lived there I would go.

Pride Night at Cedar Point would be awesome! My partner and I would love it if we were closer.

That would be very cool to try and do - if not exhausting and very $$$ - doing a circuit of all the Pride Days/Nights at theme parks throughout the US and Canada, in a year.

Next Sat (Sept. 14th) is (six flags) Great America's "out in the park" event. It's an extra $38 bucks or something... not sure I will make it this year, maybe next year!

Just got back from Pride Night at Kings Island. Nice weather, no lines, cute guys...what more could you ask for?

How about just one really kick-ass coaster? Just kidding.... sounds like a GREAT time. Friends have told me for a couple years now that I really need to check out KI Pride Night. How late did it go?

[supertrooper]

It was open from 6 until midnight.

 

BTW, the front car (second seat) of The Beast gave one of the smoothest rides I've ever had on it last night and Diamondback offered a lot more air than I remember. Although I wouldn't normally rank it very high on my coaster list (if I were into ranking rides), a good night-time ride on The Beast pushes it up a few spots and pretty close to the top.

[B&MBoy1982]

How come you didn't say hi?

 

Not like you could have missed the only Kumba shirt there.

 

Beast is giving it's best rides this season, and last night was no exception.

[USCoaster]

Six Flags New England's "Out in the Park" is this Saturday the 14th but it appears to have just gone to a normal operating Saturday with 4 hours of ERT from 8-midnight. I might head out on Saturday since they seem to be honoring Season Passes (if you tell them you are there for Out in the Park when you enter the park, I guess they are going to let you stay for the ERT) but I'm not sure if I will last long enough to get the ERT. The drive back to Boston would be rough if I leave the park at midnight.

Coming out to everyone in two weeks... so excited but anxious.

I wish the best of luck for ya. I know it can be a bit stressful, especially if your family is known to be on the not so supportive side. I hope the best goes for ya n,n

 

I'm Pansexual, which means that I'm not attracted to the gender or gender identity of the person, but rather for everything else. I don't need someones gender or what ever is in their pants to make a relationship.

 

While its not the same as sexual orientation, it does normally get thrown into the same category. I'm also genderqueer, which means I'm somewhere in the transgender category, but not intrested in a full on transition. I feel more satisfied with being in the middle or slightly leaning one way or the other.

[alilstronger]

I keep hearing that genderqueer reference a lot lately. When I was at Baltimore Pride I saw lots of younger kids that I would think would identify as that. I guess when I was young I identified with that. I did not want to be a girl but I wanted to wear glitter and girls jeans all the time. Luckily for myself and my boyfriend I am over that lol

[RougeOfVoid]

Oh there is nothing wrong with a little bit of sparkles here and some glitter here!

 

As for myself, I'm fine with being genderqueer/trans* and don't have any conflict with myself over that. It can take years though to figure yourself out, hell some people don't realize who they are until their in there fiftys.

[alilstronger]

I agree! I dated a guy who at one time was married to a woman and has a child. It goes to show sometimes its a slow process. I am just glad I knew in high school that I am gay. Made senior year a lot more fun once I came out

[Gay:The Ride]

Happy National Coming Out Day (I just came out on Facebook )!

[alilstronger]

^Congrats!

[Moose]

Congrats to you and the other TPR peep that came out on Facebook today!
