My assistant and I have been doing some research spurred on by discussions with Tim and Warren regarding this forum, its future, and its effectiveness for fulfilling its original principal mission and the question by both of these gentlemen of where do the scared and closeted LGBT youth and adults go for answers.
This question having been brought about by the tremendous changes in the web and in particular the online participation of LGBT youth and young adults shifting from a forum setting such as IOMFATS/APOS to social networking and the blogosphere.

As part of this research, we decided to also take a look at sources and information available outside of the digital online realm which brought us to this article published in June of this year by Associated Press journalist LeAnne Italie, writing for the Huffington Post.
