Hi Met! Great thread. I actually like the discussions and hearing from each "home" group as you call it. I have learned so much on these sites that I never would have learned without these discussions. I guess I feel that in general most on this site are allies to the "queer" community.

For myself the question of how to be a better community member has to do with being a better person in all areas of my life. You know that expression "it's an inside job"? To be a better ally I need to participate and I need to be aware of how I participate.

I think maybe sometimes people have hard feelings against each other and not so much a group. To be a better ally I have to start with just me and not a group or a community.
