Where can i find gay/lesbian teen short stories by black/Latino ppl? I wanna read short stories that relates to my environment. Not in the hood but just about gay black or spanish teens. | | well i asked a question and didnt get much insight. Im latina & im 21 :) maybe u can ready my story lol | Gay Black Teen looking for love? I am a black downlow gay boy, and I just turned 15 and I still do not have a boyfriend. I am so desperate and I feel like it will never happen. Most people tell me I will never get one because I only like masculine guys who end up being straight. I want to know if it is possible for 2 black gay down-low guys can fall in love, and be happy. | | its possible. Just gotta keep looking. Ther es a man that you were meant to be with. Same with everyone (or a woman... wateva) | Im a gay black teen and i want to find somebody to be in a relationship with. what do i do? anybody help? | You'll have no problem meeting lots of cool guys for friendships and relationships if you are out. You just have to know where to look.
First of all, don't even try meeting people through the internet- it's a total waste of time. It's crawling with losers, users, posers, con-artists, trolls, dirty old men and psychopaths. You're going to be searching for a long, long time before you find a non-cretin there. Meeting people face to face is much faster and more effective.
It really pays to have a network of gay, bi and straight friends that know you are gay. It works like the snowball effect- the more friends you have, the more new friends you will meet. Concentrate on making friends, not only on getting to know potential boyfriends. The more friends you have helping you search, the more potential boyfriends you will find.
Get involved in LGBT culture (friendly and curious straight people are generally welcome, too), which includes sports clubs and events, choirs and glee clubs, hospice care volunteering, counseling and big brothers/big sisters programs, church and other religious groups, academic institutes, summer camps, literacy programs, film clubs and other interest groups, pen pals, bookstores and libraries, picnics and barbecues, businesses, legal and political organizations, and much, much more.
I met a lot of cool guys passing out leaflets against Proposition 8 here in California last fall. I volunteered as an usher for performances during Pride Week and during the gay film festival (that way, I got to meet lots of cool people AND see lots of cool films).
I also belong to a gay teen soccer club and a gay diving club. I also tag along on hikes with a LGBT teen nature conservancy group that my friend is a member of. Last summer, we went to a camp for LGBT teens, and this summer were going on a canoe trip for gay teens in the Appalachians.
I'm the vice president of our school's GSA, and have made a lot of contacts in other schools and in the adult LGBT community. I write on LGBT topics for our school newspaper, and two of my articles have been published in the local city paper.
There are LGBT cultural centers in most cities and towns, even many mid-sized ones:

If your school has a GSA or similar organization, join!
You can find out more about clubs and other groups in your area by contacting your local GLSEN or PFLAG chapter, or the equivalent organizations in your country.

A lot of churches have groups for gay teens, especially the Metropolitan Community Church, the Unitarians, Episcopalians, and the United Church of Christ. Here is a site where you can find a gay-friendly church in your area (worldwide):
www.gaychurch.org/Find_a_Church/f…
Most of these churches are inclusive churches, so you don't even have to be a Christian to go to the groups. Visitors are always welcome, and none of these churches ever put pressure on you to join. I'm an agnostic, and I often go to the Thursday social of the gay teen group at the local Unitarian church. The guys there are really cool, and I've gone out with two of them.
Meet as many LGBT and LGTB-friendly people as you can. Meeting LGTB people is really very easy once you get moving. Take advantage of all the many opportunities available.
You're going to be waiting a long time if you wait for love to come to you. The world belongs to the go-getters. "Waiters" get only the rejects and table scraps, if anything at all.
If you are not out, come out already and start meeting people like crazy. Living your life and finding love will be a lot less complicated if you do. A lot of your problems will simply disappear because you won't feel guilty about being a liar, a coward, a hypocrite and a parasite (because you are leaving it to those who are out to fight for you).
How do you expect other people to love and respect you if you can't even fully love and respect yourself for what you are?
Before coming out to your folks, get a lot of practice coming out to other people your age.
Hope this all helps.

www.myspace.com/cherishshanae | Does an eyebrow piercing look gay on a straight young, caramel skinned black teen? A friend of mines recently got a tongue ring and i have been considering getting my eyebrow done. | | go 4 it!!!!=) | The gay black community? I'm just wondering why can't find a black gay teen support website anywhere on the net.I mean why is that I feel that we should have a black gay support website because all the websites that I found seem directed towards gay white males.I mean the gay black teens face different issues than a white gay male would so why isnt there a website for this? | Sorry it is so hard to find the support you are looking for.
Here is an English website that I think is very cool and very black. I think it is sad that I don't know of one black gay teen support place on the web in the States.
Hopefully, soon the U.S. will be as civilized as Britian, but until then, enjoy Blackout!
