Statement of Purpose
Several months ago I floated around the idea of creating a master list of links for the LGBT community covering topics such as the marriage equality movement, LGBT rights, LGBT support groups, HIV/AIDS awareness, our favorite LGBT Blogs, LGBT news sites, and so on and so forth.

I suggested that such a list could be pinned to the top of the forum as a way to knit our family closer together and share information amongst our members and our silent viewers. I still feel strongly about this idea. Some links would be informational particularly for our youth, but many could be our favorite gay blogs, news sites, and so on. I know that there are several LGBT orientated sites I visit frequently, and I bet there are some for you too. The only suggestion I have is that these sites would remain DU appropriate. I'd be curious what you all think about the idea and if you have any links that you would like to contribute.

Feel free to include your links below or PM them to me. I will add all links provided to my post here, condensing them into one spot for ease of use.

And for anyone out there who may be in need of direction or have questions, feel free to email me at any point. I'm respectfully discreet and happy to point you in the right direction.
