GaymerCon is the first gaming and geek lifestyle convention with a focus on LGBT culture.
On August 3 & 4th, 2013, we will gather together to create a fun, exciting weekend of gaming, geek culture, tech talk, development, and even some partying. GaymerCon is open to all and we hope to make an experience that will be meaningful as well as exceptionally exciting and fascinating.
Gaming is a common shared experience that helps us escape, educates us and helps to define who we are and want to be. Gay, Black, Latino, Lesbian, Asian, Kinksters, Women, Transgender, Bi, Nuns, Swedes, Hipsters, Browncoats, Trekkies, Xbots, Robots, Holograms, Dwarves, Lawyers and Monsters #everyonegames
Spoiler: | |
I'm sure this will be one of the top gaymes there: http://www.nfohump.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1966877#1966877

I mean seriously?!
See, this kinda bothers me, because the more and more you put this separate events, you are making it look like lgbt crowd is a subspecies of human beings and that we are 'special' -.-"
The only thing that makes us different is that we like the same sex, that's fucking it! -.-"

Disgusting. Swedes...
Still sad that gay people have to have their own conventions for this, apparently they don't feel as if other gaming conventions welcome them :/
Well or it's easier to find a partner for sex if you don't have to ask if he is into your gender in the first place
@Dingo: I can't stop thinking of that image with the gay parade.. "I just want to be accepted as a normal human being" - Goes to a parade with a 1m glowing dildo up his ass

I mirror the thoughts here, I think its a totally ridiculous reaction to a problem which I don't believe exists.
I would consider the geek/gaming "subculture" to be one of the most welcoming in the world and I couldn't even begin to imagine the LGBT crowd not being accepted without consideration.

That's because it is mostly a young community that has had contact with all members of society.

Indeed.. you're completely right, there's really no point in this. I don't get the constant desire of alienation, the need to prove yourself different from the "normal" (lol) crowd of gamers, it is a kind of auto-ghettoizing , bah!

well maybe the goal is to make people more "familiar" with it so they get used to it and loose their prejeduice |
Yep, and it's even sadder that in 2012 people still have prejudices :/
Anyway, I don't think this is the right way to fight them

I read about it a few days ago and I still think the name is silly.
"I think Call of Duty resonates because it's believable and relatable," Sledgehammer Games cofounder Michael Condrey says.
Believable and relatable...Yep, sounds like Call of Duty

Well, transgender ppl are a complete mystery to me xD
But still they are not subspecies. They are human beings who don't identify with the sexual traits they are born with (at least I think :\)
