Join the City of West Hollywood at the new West Hollywood Gay Men’s Discussion Group. The West Hollywood Gay Men’s Discussion Group will meet the second Thursday of every month for a series of lightly moderated discussions open to the public to encourage attendees to discuss their own experiences about issues ranging from the existence and importance of “Gay Culture” to how Gay men view the concept of “family” to the varied experiences of youth and Seniors in the Gay male community. The TRIBE discussion group will provide an open space for building relationships, promoting dialog, identifying challenges, and creating solutions for issues currently facing Gay men. In this month’s program we will explore what it means to be a gay man in 2012, which cultural models we identify with, and which ones we do not. We will have the opportunity to learn more about the wide variety of gay male cultural identities that make up our Tribe, why we hold those identities so dear, and how we can mitigate the internal conflict that diversity can sometimes create. Admission is free. Validated parking will be available in the 5-story parking structure adjacent to the Library.
