    Hey guys,

    I was just wondering: How much is too much info when you are replying to an ad on craigslist or whatever?

    Im not sure if I'm making sense, like should I outright be telling the poster: Hey I wanna live with you, I'm vegan and pagan oh yeah and also Queer. We good?

    I'm just not sure if I should even say it/need to say it, or what, because often I dont even know how to word it.

    Thoughts?

    If you don't want to have to be in the closet at home, I'd say it's worth mentioning in the post.

    You wouldn't necessarily have to out yourself, you could include that you're looking for "lgbt friendly" roommates. They may assume, but in the end there's a variety of reasons you could be specifying that (friends, family, etc. whom you want to feel comfortable visiting you, for example).
