DowneTime: Friendships in the Gaysian World

DowneTime: The GAPIMNY Young Adult Group
October Meeting: Friendships in the Gaysian World

Are you “the gay friend” all your straight friends refer to?  Do you have a fag hag?  Can two gays just be friends? During this meeting we explore the relationships between gay asian men and their friends and whether being gay + asian inhibits or facilitates friendships with different social groups.  Join us for a friendly discussion October 11th and, of course, bring a friend!

Also, for those who came last time, we will also devote some time to continue last month’s anonymous quesiton activity, and provide the opportunity for new folk to throw in their own questions.
