Welcome to /c/Gay - Your LGBTQ+ Haven

We're more than just a community; we're your haven for celebrating LGBTQ+ culture and connecting with like-minded individuals.

Our Partnered Discord Server: GayWave

Community Rules:

~ 1. No bigotry. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person. This includes speculating about someones sexuality, no matter how "obvious" it may be.

~ 4. Keep it LGBTQ+ related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love posts but 3-4 in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

About a month ago, a server admin reached out to me asking if I'd like to partner with their Discord community. They were branching out from reddit (like a lot of us here did) so I took a look to see if it was something I could recommend and, uh, yeah. It is.

GayWave

It's a safe-for-work social server for gay and queer men, ages 18+, operating since 2017. This is a relatively mature space for guys to connect and share in a wonderful gay community. We've got

  • Regular voice & video chat
  • Community gaming events
  • Limited-time social games
  • Topical, serious, and boilerplate channels to discuss anything and everything

Also very much an inclusive community. Trans and non-binary folks are welcome and racism, transphobia, and bigotry in any form, as well as drama-mongering, are bannable offenses.

Interested? Come check it out! Invite Link!

In my past month I've met people who are interested in the weirdly specific shit I'm interested in as well as met people who have told me about things I've never heard of. There are members from America and Canada, of course, but also just the world over. The mods and admins are solid. They don't overuse powers but they're also quick on the ball and will gently remind people.

I am not super active on Discord in general but I've been more active there than anywhere else. Excluding my DnD groups. Due to all of my experiences, I have nothing but love to give to the server, its users and the admin/mod team for setting such an incredible tone.

If you're in the NYC area, come bid on us April 2 at Animal in Brooklyn.

If not, maybe this is your sign to try out with your local gay rugby team :).
