Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ok, I was looking around the board and noticed: Holy crap 0_o There's no links for GLSEN or OUTPROUD, or any site relating to the two. And believe, me when you're planning on coming out, looking for support, ect, these sites really come in handy!
GLSEN : GLSEN is the Gay Lesbian & Straight Education Network. They are sponsors in ALOT of teen gay pride related events and can help you to start a GSA in your school and has news on alot of nation-wide events.
OutProud: Ok, OUTPROUD has to be the most useful site I've come across EVER. OUTPROUD has wonderful brocheres including ones for coming out to your parents, helping you to decide your sexuality, and even brochures tp give to your parents after you've come out! This site helped me ALOT.
TRANSPROUD: A divison of OUTPROUD. Basically the same thing except for transgendered teens.
YGA: Youth Gay America. This site was done for GLBT teens and it's really cool what these kids have done. Their movie Jim In Bold has won a Best In Festival award, and three Best Documentary awards. They have also recently released their own magazine.
PFLAG: PFLAG has nation-wide meets monthly for teens and their parents. They're ALOT like GLSEN.
YOUTHSOURCE: This is just filled with personal stories, and posts lots of petitions and whatnot to keep you active.
LCNA: I have ALOT of gay Christian friends who have been descriminated against, if you are a gay/bi/lesbian/pansexual/asexual/transgendered Christian I HIGHLY suggest you go here.
PLANETOUT: News, community, but mostly news on the gay community in mostly the USA.
Bisexual Resource Center: Lots of links and info for you bi teens!
If I missed any main sites please post them up. Hope these help you all!

word

-^_^- Found a few more:
SCARLETEEN: Safer sex site, though we all know the best way to be safe is to not have sex unless it's the with the utmost sexiest lesbian in the world....*cough* ok, next link...
POSITIVE: Cute but bery small site/community. Basically just here for support reasons.
Gay Family Support: Ok, if you come out to your parents make sure they get to this site.
The Task Force: GLBT civil rights organization. Gives info on alot of issues effecting GLBT individuals.
GLNH: The Gay & Lesbian National Hotline.
Suicide Prevention: Suicide is bad! A site for gay teen suicide prevention.
Gay Boy & Girl Support Basically what the title says, support and tips. For the lesbian and bi girls, their girl page is undercontstruction at the moment...
The Advocate Oh my God, this is an EXCELLENT magazine that you can pick up at your local Borders or Barnes and Nobles. But, if you can't manage to get a copy, the website fills you in on local news involving the GLBT community.

Wow, Thanks SO much for OutProud...

Holy crap I may actually be ALMOST ready to come out to my parents thanks to this site blaugh

Thank you so much for that link... heart heart

-^_^- I've been apart of numerous GLBT teen help communities in the past and alot of our resources were found from these links, well, I've left most of the groups now except one that just was open to the public a little while ago and am trying to get it more GLBT involved (it's basically just random chat right now and very unorganized...) so I keep the links in a folder in case I need them for something like this.

Your very welcome. Hope everything goes well when you decide to!
Best wishes heart .

Thanks! You wonderful weasel. blaugh
