"Out Games"

This is a bit offtopic, but what the hell.... perhaps it will catch some ppls attention who normally dont reply.
Anyways, this whole Gay Games thing I find is really wierd. I only heard of the concept for the first time this year, cause apparently they are gonna be holding them in Montreal.... so somewhat close to me, and a place where I love to go on a regular basis.
Since then Ive seen some pics of previous gay games. And I must admit, they come across as being quite... unattractive... To start off with... its like a gathering of the typical stereotypical gay guys. My problem with that.... there are MANY MANY more gay guys out there, who are very possibly much more athletic but would never dare show their asses up at such an event precisely because of the rest of the crowd. So already this even is bound to exclude many.
This is what their website says:
REAL ATHLETES, REAL GOALS, REAL DREAMS. Sport has the power to transcend culture, nationality, religion – in essence,“differenceâ€
