This article is from the Gay-Lesbian-Bi Youth FAQ, by Jane Patterson with numerous contributions by others.
As you will have noted in the moderation policy, we don't accept posts
that are just requests for contact. But there are lots of ways to get
in contact with other gay youth.
3.1.1 ON THE NET
The newsgroup is, of course, a great place to meet people. Get
involved in the discussions, and you should find some new friends
fairly quickly.
On Internet Relay Chat, visit the #gayteen channel.
