To Be: Gay
It’s safe to say that stereotypes exist. It’s even safer to say that gay stereotypes have played a
key role within the LGBT community; both as we see ourselves and how others might perceive us. Some
of these stereotypes can be viewed as negative, fun, appalling, salacious, maybe even true but what
happens when we take a closer look at the individual rather than the archetype? What insight will we
find when we hear the impacts, the feelings, the realness and the truth of real gay issues which the LGBT
community faces daily. This podcast is meant to bring attention to and shine a light on the
events, circumstances and stories that have defined the LGBT experience and to explore what it really
means TO BE: GAY
