Okay, I wasn't sure where to put this actually, so sorry if this is the wrong spot. x.x;

Anyways...today was the first meeting of my school's LGBT group.  Its name is PRIDE right now (which is some acronym, but I can't remember what it stands for). But at the meeting we were talking about re-naming the group so that straight people didn't think they couldn't come either.

My point is, they want to re-name it to GSA...but I dunno. I don't like it so much. So we're trying to come up with a new name, and I was wondering if any of you had any input. Because it seems I'm the only "genderqueer" in the group. v.v I think the rest of the girls are all lesbians or bisexuals.

But yeah, if anyone had any input, that'd be awesome, because I am at a loss for a name to throw at them.

((And, which was really hard, but I did it! Well, I didn't do it in front of the group, but I was talking to the woman who runs it afterwards, and told her about my gender identity issue. Which I didn't think I was gonna be able to tell anyone, let alone someone I barely know. XD GO ME! ...don't mind me, I'm excited.))

I've heard of groups calling themselves "Q&A."  "Queer and Allies."

The Gay-straight alliances are for all parties, GLBT and allies.

You can go to GLSEN.org for more information.
