On An Island

There have always been people - bad people to be sure - who have said, regarding "others" they don't like, "Put 'em all on an island somewhere!"  Gays, jews, blacks, hiv positive individuals...

I wonder what would that island would be like, if in fact all the gays were shipped to one.  Would it be fabulous, glittery and full of music?  Would the "straight" world - sans gays - be gray and dull without us?

Would this Island of Gays be a fantastic tourist destination for straight people?   Would we allow them to visit, since they kicked us to the curb island?  Would we be allowed to go back and visit non-gay family and friends?

Would it just be gays, or would bisexual individuals be forced to go and live there, too.  Trans folk?

How would you imagine and island where all the gays were forced to go and live?  I wonder what the government would be like.

Tell me your thoughts, please.

    Romanosky and Phillips have a song that addresses this topic, spot-on
    I think it is called the "Island Song"
    I will try to find it for you.
