text: I think that one issue is where you live and the level of homophobia. There are, of course, gay men and women everywhere, but when it is not safe people conceal. My understanding from your previous posts is that there are no LGBT organizations that you are aware of near where you live. Do I understand that right? Are there any gay bars, or at least gay friendly bars in your city? If so, drop in, have a beer and chat up the bartender. Come back a few times. Have conversations. Get to know a few names and faces. It is work to become known.
