Why?Town

Some things I'll never understand.

What are the needed helpful resources and what local organizations don't offer access to queers?

I do know that the queers have pretty much been accepted in society, at least in the United States (including Youngstown) and at lest a few other countries, and I don't have a problem with that. Heck, my brother is gay. Anyway, here they're allowed to get married*, they can get a driver's license, go to any college they feel like (if they can afford it like the rest of us), they can apply to and interview for any job they prefer and get it (if they are talented/trained/experienced enough like the rest of us), and they can take a vacation anywhere in this fine country and  some other countries too. To help keep them safe I will admit that I've heard they should stay away from Jamaica and most of the middle east.


And before anyone thinks the * I used by "marriage" was to insult the queers. I believe the word "marriage" was used in translation of one or more languages in the Bible to English. Whether or not is was an English word prior to that, the connection was made and the government shouldn't have ever used it as an adjective regarding the legal contract between two people that anyone can have. Or maybe it was already a word for that and the translators made the improper connection between church and state, either way it's two different things for two different reasons.

Based on LGBTQ+++ I also wonder how the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Lord knows how many other youths and their allies, feel about not being part of the support group for queer youth and allies in the Rainbow Room.

OMG! The Rainbow was mentioned multiple times in the Bible as a reminder of the existence of God. Why would it be used to represent anyone else?

FWIW, I remember back in grade school playing smear the queer and nobody ever wanted to be smeared while a fag was something those damn English liked to smoke.
