Gays and lesbians with a love of the open sea have
a bewildering number of cruising choices to accompany the diversity of
their communities and interests. For those more interested in nonstop
partying, intense bonding and gay-friendly ports of call, companies
such as Gay Pride Holidays,
frequently charter ships from the major cruise lines to offer all-gay
cruises. A major attraction of these types of “positively pink”
adventures is, of course, the joyful freedom to be totally open about
one’s affections for a same-sex partner (no awkward conversations of
the “he’s not just my roommate” variety).

On the other hand, those who don’t want to compromise on luxury or
variety of itineraries (or be “ghetto-ized” on all-gay ships) can
choose from any sailing today and feel welcomed both by fellow
passengers and the cruise staff and management. In fact, in the past
few decades, all cruise lines have come to recognize the power of the
almighty gay cruising dollar and court this valuable segment through
marketing campaigns, onboard amenities and special programs, such as
the very popular “Friends of Dorothy” (FOD) meet-and-greets, listed in
the ship’s daily programs. Targeted squarely at gays and lesbians with
children, it’s another trend in the diverse and changing gay cruising
market.
