I hate labels, they are restrictive and in discussions like this many will jump to conclusions just because one is a "liberal","conservative", "Democrat" or "Republican". I think that we can all have far-ranging beliefs on any number of subjects and don't have to be pinned in to some all encompassing set of rules that have been set by the label makers.

I will admit that we (my partner and I) have considered attending some of the events but weren't quite sure if we would be welcomed with open arms as we have an "alternative lifestyle" (whatever that means!). We have both been lucky enough to have families that support us 100% and work enviroments that were inclusive and diverse, but wasn't sure if a car club of any kind would be so open....a clear breakage of my don't pre judge rule!!

So again I'm warmed by the general fair and open-minded opinions I've read in this thread.......any group should have a token lesbian couple anyway!!
Is this vehicross.info's first 'outing'?! Damn I've seen it all now! Is this an awsome thread or what? Is there anything we haven't covered?

VXkween, I'm sure you and your partner would be welcomed at any gathering. And I agree wholeheartedly with your thoughts on labels. My very best friend in this whole wide world is queer as a three dollar bill - but he's also a conservative, straight-ticket republican. And I don't mean your typical conservative - we're talking about an I-just-sent-a-check-to-Jesse Helms type conservative. Stick a label on that!
