	ZDirectory: gay and lesbian community
		Especially in gay villages, the social networks of many LGBT people have been traditionally concentrated inside the LGBT population although this is changing as the communities evolve.
		Many other members of the gay community remain geographically or socially isolated from other LGBT people, or don't feel their social connections to their LGBT friends are different from those they have with straight friends.
		The lesbian and gay community represents a social component of the global community that is believed by many to be underrepresented in the area of civil rights.

	Gay - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gay is an adjective meaning "carefree", "happy", or "bright and showy"; however in modern usage, gay is a word usually used, as either a noun or adjective, to refer to same-sex sexual orientation; homosexuality.
		Gay is used as an adjective to describe sexual orientation (attraction, preference, or inclination) and is usually chosen instead of homosexual as an identity-label.
		For example, while a gay bar is not itself homosexual, using gay as an adjective to describe the bar indicates that the bar is either gay-oriented, caters primarily to a gay clientele, or is otherwise part of gay culture.

		And my teacher feels that teenage gays are gay for the same reason other teenagers dissent from society; for attention.

		Gay Pride, Boston, June 21, 1977: It was a hot Saturday afternoon on Boston Common, and the crowd listening to speeches was restless.
		Gay and lesbian religious groups have taken a more prominent place in a number of community events, and many advocates for gay civil rights focus on promoting the image of gay people being as no less religious than their heterosexual counterparts.
		Some gay and lesbian Jews maintain that given the overwhelming dominance of Christianity in U.S. culture, MCC prominence in organizing the march is, on the face of it, an act of erasure.

	Gay community divided on 'outing' - The Boston Globe
		NEW YORK -- Though decried by many gay rights leaders, ''outing" -- the practice of exposing secretly gay public figures -- is expanding into new terrain as Internet bloggers target congressional staff members, political strategists, even fl clergy whose sermons and speeches contain antigay rhetoric.
		Numerous gay organizations, such as the Human Rights Campaign and the Log Cabin Republicans, staunchly oppose outing, yet many other activists support it when the targets are public figures -- or their aides -- who work against gay rights or condemn homosexuality.
		Two fl gay rights activists are now taking aim at prominent fl pastors who -- in the activists' view -- have gone too far in assailing homosexuality from their pulpits.

		What all of these religious leaders had in common was an understanding of the role of the gay community in providing healing for gay men, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgendered persons.
		Most gay men and lesbians know only the negative experiences of coming out and suddenly having their support systems ripped out from under them, but these books show that public declarations can have spiritual benefits as well.

	Division, Diversity and Racism: Gay Community (Calgary)
		Grant's observation of Calgary's gay and lesbian community includes the feeling that the difficulty gays and lesbians have accepting diversity is transmitted to them from the straight community.
		All I meant to do during that portion of my interview was to draw an analogy between the relationship that gay men of colour have with the white gay men's community on [one] hand, and [the] hypothetical situation in which (white) gay men were restricted to meeting straight men in the bars on Electric Avenue.
		I know not one gay man of colour who, having despaired of the rampant racism in Calgary's white gay community, "eventually became involved" with a straight man. That a gay man of colour would move from one oppressive situation only to land himself in another is somewhat melodramatic.
