Jews from the GLBT community face the challenge of fitting in with the larger Jewish community as they come to terms with--and live--their sexual identities.

The experience of being a minority within a minority poses its own set of problems. The huge gap that exists between religion and sexuality affects not only GLBT Jews, but sometimes their families as well.
