    I was wondering if you good ppl would like some subforums to organize the threads here. I'm not sure which ones you need, so suggestions are welcome.

    I suppose a Lesbian forum might work, and perhaps a "coming out" forum. What else?

    everyone this is an exciting and quite frankly generous offer from Skip!
    so I would urge everyone to have a good think about this, subforums would be a real asset to this community we have here.
    plus an asset to hipforums at large because it would encourage more gay and lesbain people to join

    How about

    Coming Out and Confused!

    So all the 'am I gay threads?' can go in there as well

    It feels ok to me for lesbians to be a sub, its not saying that the main forum isn't for men and women but would give women a place they could have as well, to discuss lesbian issues

    if this happens i would do a sticky explaining the subforums and explaining what i have just said there

    combined spirtual/religious and gay.

    so

    gay churches
    lesbian women and the goddess
    in awe of the green man (in a gay sexual sense)
    can you be gay and be a such and such religion
    man on man spirtual strengh
    chakra sex exercises for gay people
    gay people the buddism and celibacy
    same sex relationships does it conflict with the idea of the god and goddess
    and so on

    I would be constantly on the outlook for threads that where just a rant about gay people though

    I don't think a bisexual forum would be good. Some bisexuals may feel like they are being segregated from gays.
