The LGBT Community is about as big a tent as there is. [View all]
When it comes to the LGBT Group here on DU, we do not cater to the few, we cater to the masses. Being such a diverse & large Group, we take into consideration all of our members, and weigh what safe haven means to all.
There is no doubt that the LGBT community has been slandered in the general public. We have been bullied & beaten, and yes, in some cases, killed just for being LGBT.
Words do matter in more ways than one. We do not want to come into a safe haven Group and hear slurs (no matter what the intention); we get enough of that on a daily basis in our every day lives.
We welcome all, and welcome diverse opinions, but we will not tolerate slurs used in the LGBT Group under any circumstances. If we want to hear them, all we have to do is walk out our front doors.
Signed
Hosts of the LGBT Group
