Default GLBT Google plus circle

Anyone interested? If so, I can get you in.

I miss the days of BBM and all my friends I made through that group.

I'm interested.

@Twitch, GLBT='Gay Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender' but is a catchall for those who identify differently from heterosexual.

Hug.

Off topic, but is "GLBT" the standard in the US? Here in the UK, it's always "LGBT". Just wondering.

The variance is based on personal preference.

You'd think my preference would be LGBT since I'm a lesbian, but I've always said GLBT. 6 one way, half a dozen the other.

Will it be for the LGBT community only? Or straight allies/supporters are allowed too? I have always been a staunch supporter for the LGBT rights and equality.

Sure, it's not that we prohibit public posting of email addresses - it's just safer not to, to prevent them falling into the wrong hands.

It is not confusing but it is not exactly like yahoogroups where a post from any one member of the group can be viewed by all members. So if any of us want our own circle to grow, may be we can welcome any new friend that one of us adds with a welcome post on our circle. For example, if I add you to my LGBT friends circle, then I welcome you to my circle by posting a welcome note on my circle (something like "Welcome to my LGBT friends circle"). This post is then visible to all the friends in my LGBT circle, who in turn can add you to their circles and so on ....
