Introduce Yourselves!

[Joevn]

Aww, that's wonderful, Joe. I was there in December for New Year's Eve, and if you've ever been to Times Square, it's kinda like that, hahaha. It's a wonderful experience, and it's really sweet if you're with the guy you love. ^_^

I've never been to Times Square, but we were at WDW on New Year's Day one year and boy, it was crowded. I personally wouldn't want to be there again with that many people. It was hard to walk anywhere and obviously it was hard to see a lot of the attractions.

Yup, just like Times Square.

Hi,

I'm Dave, and I just found DisBoards this morning. Wow, these are are fantastic.

I'm 39, single, gay, and live in San Francisco. I officially got hooked on Disney last summer, when I went to WDW for the first time with my parents, brother, SIL, and their four young children. We spent 10 days there and had an amazing time. All the while, though, I couldn't help but wonder what it would be like to visit without my nieces and nephews. Don't get me wrong, I love them dearly, but riding It's a Small World four times in a row almost drove me over the edge. And you don't want to know about the Spinning Teacups Incident (tm).

So this summer, I'm going back to WDW for a week, this time by myself. I have a room booked at the Dolphin (thank you, educator discount!) and have reservations for the Epcot Segway and Keys to the Kingdom tours. It's gonna be a blast.

Welcome Aboard Dave

Glad you found us!

Hi! I'm Allison (or Allie). I was a DIS vet under a different name, then I stopped coming here for awhile, then I started again when I discovered Virtual Magic Kingdom. Then curiousity got to me and I was nosing around and I realized there is a GLBT forum, so of course I had to stop by!

So yeah, I'm not gay. I'm not lesbian. I'm transsexual.
and Allie isn't my natural born name, nor is female my current gender, but in time (and $$) they will be. So yeah, I'm a m2f pre-op TS. I love Disney World. I love the resorts. The monorail. Tower of Terror (oh yeah!). I'm not a princess and Aladdin is a total hottie!

Anyway, yeah, hi! *waves*

Hello All!. Like others that I've read the people on this forum are a lot more friendlier. So I figured I should introduce myself here as well as I having been using Disboards for years for planning trips to Disney. I'm single, 45 enjoy travelling to Disney and other theme parks and finally became a DVC owner for BCV and SSG. Haven't planned this years journey yet so that's why I'm here. Doing the research. Thanks for the help and hope to meet some of you once my travel dates have been decided

Welcome to all the new folks and welcome back to AllisonY2K!

 

[DVC~OKW~96]

Welcome along everyone! Nice to see you've found the best board on the DIS.

Looking forward to getting to know each of you better!

Hey, Tony, k8x, Ric, Lillian, and Katie! It's great to have you with us and thanks for introducing yourselves. You'll find this is a great place to hang out, meet friends, and share all things Disney.

Noah ... your son IS the cutest (from a Mom whose baby boy - now 16 - used to be the cutest; folk would stop us on the street and say, "Do you know how cute your son is?"). And, listen, November IS good, but don't tell anyone this: the week after Labor Day is simply heavenly (a good Fla heat, no lines, and very yummy times!).

hey im katie i love vmk! what is your name in vmk?

 

[AllisonY2K]

Dude...I've been gone so long that before I left there wasn't even a GLBT board here. Imagine my surprise when I saw it and nearly .

Hello everyone! Thanks for providing such a great environment.... I discovered DIS while Google-ing the prospect of a gay wedding at Disney. And while it was a disappointment to learn what so many others have about that particular policy, at least finding the answer was cushioned by finding this great resource for gay Disney lovers like myself. Oh, by the way, I'm single, I just got carried away daydreaming about one day getting married there....LOL...I'm 23, a gay male, living in Maryland between DC and Baltimore. Currently I work as a cardiology supervisor and paramedic, but I'm seriously considering a quest to obtain gainful employment in the Orlando area. So if anyone knows if Disney hires paramedics at the parks let me know. Trying to pick a favorite thing about WDW is impossible for me - but while I'm there I get a sense that the world is perfect and magical, and I think that above all is what makes me an addict. Thanks again for the site! I look foward to talking to all of you!

Hi all,

I'm MaryAnn. I'm new to the forum. I've been to Disney three times with my kids who are now all grown but am going in May for the first time with my lovely wife. She has never been so I'm very excited to share it with her.
I can't wait to go.

Hi to everyone,

I've been a member of the Dis for awhile but away for a couple of years. Planning another trip, so I'm back and stumbled onto this forum.

My name is Allie (40 - ouch that hurts...just happened) and my DP is Kim and she is 42. We celebrated our 17th anniversary recently, and are in the process of raising our two daughters, Sarah (9) and Hannah(6). The midwest is tough.....but we are tougher. We were pioneers in our town when we decided to have children, almost ten years later, it's much more common.

Looking forward to our next trip to Disney in July of this year. Nice to read about all of you.

 

[Longhairbear]

I can't remember if I posted on this thread, so here goes.
I am Frank, and my partner is John. We are bears, and live an hour from Disneyland in CA. We have been DVC members for 4 years, and our home base is Villas Wilderness Lodge. We usually go to WDW for Flower and Garden, Gay Days, and Food and Wine. I love to cook, so usually include some Disney recipe from the 4 Disney resort cookbooks.
I can be found on here, and both of us on Live Journal, and various "bear" sites, as well as just about every other Disney website known to exist. We also belong to a gay car club, and drive a 57 Chevy on weekends.
John is a CA native, and I was born and raised in MA before moving to CA in '99. And yes, I still have a Boston accent.

I just want to say a big HELLO to all you people that posted on this board . Its nice to see so many people !

 

[watersbland]

My name is Danah and my girlfriend is Mandie. We are 26 and 28, in that same order. We share a house in North Carolina with our dog and 3 cats. I joined this board because it was one of the first places I was able to find any infomation for gay and lesbian couples on WDW. We are getting married this coming September and are planning to spend our honeymoon at WDW. I have only been to WDW once and that was years ago when I was 7 or 8 and Mandie went in highschool. It has been a while since either of us has been and we've never been together so I can't wait! For the moment I've become sort of Disney obsessed while trying to get this thing planned and I'm enjoying every minute of it. Well, nice to meet you all and look forward to sharing more with you.

Hello All.

My name is Joe and my boyfriend of 6 years is Chip. When I fell in love with Chip along came the love for Disney.

We live in Syracuse, NY (the snowiest large city in the US and winner of the golden snowball award year after year) but love to travel, both for fun and culture.

I've been to Disney 6 times and Chip, who knows how many, he used to work there years and years ago as a cast member in the college program and subsequently just for his own enjoyment.

This year he twisted my arm enough and left hints on a daily basis until I caved and booked the Grand Floridian for 6 nights/7 days on top of our week cruise. It will be fun all the same.

 

[IcicleM]

Awww, everyone on here is so cute. Cute couples, cute dreams and futures. ^_^ I wuv Disney, haha. I turned 18 March 22nd, which was really exciting. I opened a bank account for my birthday (haha! just kidding) Actually, I went to New York and saw Mary Poppins, Tarzan, The Lion King, and A Chorus Line. All that's missing is Beauty and the Beast, which I'm hoping to see this summer before it leaves Broadway. Then, come December, I'm off to see The Little Mermaid! YAY!

But in September or so, I'm going to start working at Disney. Until then, I am looking to make some money before I move, and I need to find a place to live.
