Queer and Trans*: Grindr, Scruff, and mooorrreeeee
I know, it is late in the cycle, BUT it is a new year, which means new sluts and such. There have been threads like this in the past but I have not seen one like this for c/o 2017.
Has anyone visited UMich or UVA? Which one seems more queer friendly or like you could hookup with more than one someone?

Now if I could just hear back from Michigan...soj wrote:UMich has a great queer community.
Have you visited UMich? Heard anything about queer life at other schools?

P.S. To anyone, as a queer person should the law school community matter? If there are only 3 other gayssssss, do you want to go to there?

Pretty sure there's not a single gay bar in Charlottesville, Virginia...just throwing that out there.UCLAHopeful2014 wrote:I know, it is late in the cycle, BUT it is a new year, which means new sluts and such.

In Cville...
Impulse is a private gay club...pay annual membership fee and get "approved" by the board, meaning if you are lgbtq friendly.
There is also Escafe which if I remember correctly, turns into a gay club some nights (restaurant by day)
The University has a lot of groups, like Queer Student Union, etc. Movie nights, events, mixers, etc. (I'm sure Law has some too).
I went undergrad in the late 90's and mid 00's (long story) and found Charlottesville to be pretty gay friendly (even a couple of daycares that encourage same sex parents to come). I am not gay, however, so there may be a different perspective on the environment from "the inside" and I dont really know about hookups...although my understanding is that they can be found anywhere

I visited Mich and it seemed as good a plays for gays as you could expect outside of a major city.

I mean I can't speak for the state as a whole, but AA seemed totally fine. Obviously it's something you'd have to visit for yourself if you're concerned.anyriotgirl wrote:I am sort of really concerned about this?

You're going to want to stay out of Virginia. I'd be suspect of anything south of that, too. There are some queers in Umich & Columbia, NYU, Yale are really really friendly.

Atlanta is really, really queer friendly. Anyone thinking of going to Emory should be well received in the area.

I think this statement is old fashioned. NC has some very gay-friendly areas. Not to mention Atlanta, Florida (where I live now), and hellooooo NOLA.manillabay wrote:You're going to want to stay out of Virginia. I'd be suspect of anything south of that, too.

Isn't Ithaca College considered one of the gayest schools in the country? Not sure if the same is true for the surrounding city or Cornell.UCLAHopeful2014 wrote:Is Ithaca queer friendly?!

I feel like the gays are uncharacteristically quiet this cycle.
