Meeting others

2.

One of my cousin is a lesbian, and a "friend" back in High School is gay (We haven't talked in ages though).

 

I went to 2 high schools in one town in Texas. One was very openly gay, I was surprised at how many other students there were out, even kissing in the hallways. The other was on the poor side of town, so you know they weren't out at all, if there even were any.
Then I went to a high school in California less than an hour from LA and only met a couple bi's.
It just depends on where you are.

 

I know of one guy... :-(
wish the world was more accepting, then everyone would probably be a lot more open!

 

I go to an LGBT youth group, the guy I garden for is gay, and I used to go to an ftm group. I've met a fair number of lgbt people. Oh, and a best friend of mine who I recently contacted after about 8 years is also bisexual

 

Most of my friends in high school were LGBT. I hung out with the choir and drama kids, and my school was very open and not too bad on bullying. I actually got the honor of being the first person one of my good friends came out to.

 

Hi,

Did a little search on what is available where you are:

Gay and Lesbian Organisations in Geneva - AngloINFO Geneva, in the Geneva region (Switzerland)

Maybe you can check these out?

 

Made me curious so I looked for similar organizations or meetups in Montreal. About 2 hours of public transit to get to any of them, and they're usually after 6 PM. :bang:

 

^^ I have the same problem. I live in the Chicago suburbs but there isn't any group that is actually close to me.

 

I know a few dozen, my best friends are a bi girl and a gay guy. I've met most of them through either my school's LGBT center or my honor's society, which has a lot of queer members. Hooray for going to one the most gay friendly universities in the US.

 

You're 14; I don't think I had met LGBT people until I was 16 or so, either - they were just some strange, fabled folk you only find on the internet (and I was one of them). If you're from somewhere like Geneva then you're bound to meet way more in the next few years.

 

I know like two....I do wish I knew more, but being somewhat shy to people I don't know doesn't help sometimes heh...being an introvert sometimes really blows

 

I know a few, but we don't really get along and I don't really mind. Where I live there's really only a 21+ gay club to meet people and that's about it, so I have nowhere to really meet anyone until I'm in college I guess.

 

I know about 30 at least I was vice president of a gay straight alliance

 

I have met two. One is a lesbian, the other (girl) is bi. Not much opportunity to meet LGBT people at my school, which is why the first club I'm joining in college is either a GSA or an LGBT club.

 

im in the same boat... to this day i have not made one LGBT friend not even a fag hag... wish i had one of them... i know 2 lesbians but one of them doesnt want to be friends coz she thinks i will steal her girl from her..pretty lame stuff

 

A few. Best friend is pansexual, and few of my classmates are bi/pan. Don't know a gay guy or a lesbian, though... I don't know any trans people either, which blows.

I have a feeling this will change for the better once I'm in uni.

 

6 (7 including me) were all in the same year level as me.

Plus another 2, and another 1 and another 3-4 from other places.

So I know/ have met probably about 13-14.

 

None. I need to get out more, but I'd only be able to notice others if they wore rainbow clothing or a big sign that says 'I'm Gay!' or something. I probably come into contact with LGBT people everyday, but have no idea of their orientation.
