If this response is to me, Rhymer Reisen, you may have misunderstood. I'm fine with the Readerie. I'm fine with the Queer community here.
I just don't think the general WdC community is supportive. I'm more than just gay, but I've received very little support from WdC because people don't know me and I'm hesitant now to share after two years of ghosting by WdC bloggers, posters, writers. I don't put many personal things on the Newsfeed because I don't need or . IRL, I could use a hug or someone who will spend 10 minutes with me. I suspect that's too much. At WdC folks don't comment and avoid communication in general.
Perhaps someone can recruit the young queer people out there or demonstrating that this place can be safe. I don't know what the barriers are for younger writers. Making this 13+ instead of 18+ might help; but then... consider that being a young insurrectionist is apparently okay... being gay is not.
