Edit: Nvm, should just google first :D Q = Queer + = All the other orientations that would reword it to QUILTBAG. I'm an originalist... GLBT or nothing. I was under the impression Q means Questioning, considering queer is just another word for gay, no? Lesbian and Gay technically are the same thing as well so it seems redundant. Also I don't see why they keep adding letters. You are either gay, bisexual, or straight. Some trans people are gay, some are bi, some are straight. Technically if you have the brain of a girl and you're attracted to boys, I guess you'd be straight then.
Some snowflakes are just more special than other snowflakes, so they need their own designation. And I think the + is for Furries. |

What I have trouble with is the word 'gender.' I am not a 'gender' and don't know how I couldn't possibly be one. The proper term is 'sex.' 'Gender' applies to a word. I don't know how, why, or when this changed. All I know is, whenever I see a form nowadays to fill out my 'gender,' I just leave it blank. Amen to that.
Connectors etc. have a gender. Living organisms have a sex.
As to why it changed, sex is a naughty word and so those of a delicate disposition preferred "gender". |

To be fair, the guy's looking for a community to hang out with, specifically, one he feels like he'd be the most comfortable in. I don't see this as having anything to do with identity politics, it's just like anyone else looking for a community they relate to. To be fair though, OP, there are a lot of communities in this game that you would probably feel comfortable in. Don't restrict yourself to one little chamber. I love diversity, but more than diversity of sexuality/gender/race/etc, I like diversity of ideas. It comes down to this thought experiment - would you rather be in a room with a bunch of different people who all think the same, or a bunch of people who are all the same but think different? It's a false dichotomy, but, think about it.

Looking for a group/community full of sexy blonde heterosexual girls with green eyes. Blue eyes are plausible as well. |

Why is a separate community required and when did where you stick your penis or vagina become your IDENTITY?
Surely you like movies, politics, religion and all the other things everyone talks about just the same or does LGBTETC some how have identity politics applied to everything in their lives?
If you want to be part of society then be part of it. The most interesting thing about you isn't your sexual preference and it doesn't need to be the first thing you say after your name. |

Well, maybe that's the *only* interesting thing about the person.

Everyone looks for smaller communities to be a part of, in both this game and real life. They are not separate communities, but rather, communities within the wider society. What qualifies a community for your participation is up to you. The OP wasn't posting about identity politics, the OP was asking about the existence of one such community. You and others like you really need to read posts before knee-jerking at them like this.

I dont think its something wrong to communicate in community that understands. So seeking such a place is seeking for people who would understand your problems, your joys. I dont think its something unusual. We have many channels in game and people have different preferences for chat.

Usually I smell troll when this kind of thread pops its head, because I wonder what does sexual orientation have to do with playing EVE Online, or playing videogames at all.
We don't care who do you 'love' as long as it's consensual and between adults. So why did you come here? To play videogames or to discuss your sexual orientation with people not interested in it?

I would hazard a guess that several of the larger organizations have sub groups that address this. Goons seem very active in proclaiming themselves and others as Gay.
What I DO know is that CCP takes a dim view of any persecution based upon race, creed, or sexual preference. If that happens? Report it. please.

Confirming that goons do indeed have SIGs for LGBTWTFBBQ (and frequently proclaim that they are indeed gay, whether they actually are or not). Can't comment on how active they are, though. I feel that an ingame community about real world interests that have nothing to do with the (meta)game may not have much staying power. |

Sorry, I disagree.
We should be discouraging players from isolating themselves in what could very well become closed communities based entirely on sexual preferences.
That's not healthy for the game or community.

Why isn-¦t sexual orientation as valid as say ... what country your from or what language you speak ?
With your logic nation specific corps and language specific chatt channels shouldn-¦t be allowed either.
Finally if I understood the OP correctly this was more a question to open a chatt channel for the LBTQ-community and just like say ... the hauler channel or EVE-Scout said channel could be used in addition to the users regular channel(s). |

Quote: 12. Discussion of forum moderation is prohibited.
The discussion of EVE Online forum moderation actions generally leads to flaming, trolling and baiting of our ISD CCL moderators. As such, this type of discussion is strictly prohibited under the forum rules. If you have questions regarding the actions of a moderator, please file a support ticket under the Community & Forums Category.
I too find it odd that one would want to create a community based on sexual preference or self-identification inside a game about spaceships, just like I would find an ingame community about Hyundai Motorcycles quite odd. Or Neoliberalism, or Animal Rights. Or a chat channel for the "Straight Community". It simply has nothing to do with the game. It's not like languages, where people simply can't communicate well if they don't speak the same one.
However, if OP wants to make one, and people would like to join him in his effort, I'd say let them. If it works out, and they are happy with it, all the power to them. |
