I don't see what the problem with anybody playing is. At the end of the day, if on the field of play, the individual's or teams play fair and well, who care's about gender, sexuality or race. Give 'em a marker and let 'em light you up.

I come across this so often in my life, being a male hairdresser, I get all the jokes and stereotypes and I'm happily married and planning for kids at the moment, and I don't really care how people perceive me as long as my private life doesn't affect my professional,or in this case paintball,life.
I don't think it should make any difference if your gay, straight, purple, or blue, just make the game fair:)

paintball is proabably the most friendly sport of all when you think of it. i've never seen an argument or anyone making unwanted or biased comments towards anyone, and most of the comments you lot are talking about are probably just a bunch of mates taking the piss out of each other;) .

personally, when i put on my paintball mask i feel like i can be a different person, like i don't have people judging me and i can act more freely due to that. when ur on the field, noone cares about who's gay, white, black, christian, jewish, french, or anything else.
the only thing they want to know about you kis how aften you 'ball and what part of the field you want to take.

Paintball is a friendly sport and very open and from the comments I guess you can see you didn't really need to ask, get it covered get them involved and get them playing, the more people in the sport the better it will be.

Far as I'm concerned the only people we don't want to play are those who CHEAT:D

I can't see it being a problem, you only get real friction (ooh er) when either side gets preachy and starts yelling about stuff. I bet there are lots of gay players, they just don't feel the need to yell about it. Unless I'm doing something wrong, I didn't realise paintball was a particularly straight/gay sport? although some have commented on my bunkering technique. Leave the sexuality, race, nationality and religion of players out of it and we're all just paintballers. The minute we talk about pink paintball as a seperate thing, then is it OK to talk about straight paintball as different too? Gay pride is fine, straight pride is viewed as bigotry.
If anyone considers paintball an overly macho sport, just look at the trouble we go to to make sure our freaks and hoppers match our markers. It's one step away from soft furnishings.

OK, as another option, lets pool our resources and just pick one thing to be against, then we're all happy. I propose: Switzerland, 'cos it's about time they got some stick.
