Having been the head of my GLBU student group, Id like to arrange something similar at the point. If you can drop me your respective AIM's or emails, then i can assemble a master group in yahoo etc, and arrange fun outings/parties for "our" kind of people. Don't get me wrong, we all mix well with all point employees of every size and persuaision. However, I feel it could be fun to get our own group going to help enjoy the summer. My email address is Titanboim@aol.com. Last couple of years, I've arranged Pool parties and the like in Milan and Sandusky, as well as outings to other cities/parks. Hope to see you at the point soon, and dont forget to drop your addy's here, or email to the above address.
See ya there!!!

Actually yes, I have worked at the Point. And yes, we had one last year. And yes, we had a lot of fun. I respect your opinion, but each to there own.

I find a lot of what your trying to say to be offensive, but you know what, I'm tolerant. Something you should try to be when considering my and many other's viewpoints.
It is very interesting that the now 21 people which have emailed me find what I'm saying to be very true. We don't want to completely escape the Hetero world, You've missed the entire point. We have to work in it, live in it, and yes, even play in it. But we also like to go out on our own, and enjoy life without it sometimes. We do live in a diverse culture, and yes, i agree Cedar Point is a diverse place. But you have to admit the tables are very slanted to the one side, that of the heterosexual world. I am not a straight person but have to face those reminders of what the majority has chosen for me to deal with. I function just fine in those confines. And no, I'm not a radical homosexual trying to convert the world to my view point. But what I have to say is very true to this point... Unless you are GAY Mathew, you really don't have a clue what we face and have to deal with on a daily basis. And by trying to say that I am narrow minded, your cosmopolitan viewpoint on what should be in place, is by its very point narrow and misguided. If you feel the point is a diverse place, then there is certainly a place for a group of people like ourselves that wish to be a part of the whole, while occaisionally being able to escape from it to enjoy ourselves.
If I'm bitter it's because I'm sick of racism in all shapes and forms, which is also why I don't like the concept behind BET.
Again, if I had a post that said I was going to start a straight club, you'd probably cringe... this is apparent when you immediately imply I'm homophobic because I'm against what you propose. When I deny that, you said I'm a bitter person with issues - if my issue is that I don't like what you're putting on the table, then yes, I have an "issue," and I'm glad I do.
"To each their own" indeed, but before you say something like that you should consider that calling someone bitter with issues is a bit hypocritical. Try again.
Mods, please close this down.

Quotes like "but I think we are still highly outnumbered" speak volumes, by the way.
