This club is for anyone who is concerned with the issues of discrimination and prejudice based on sexual preference. This group welcomes straight, gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender members. If you are hesitant to join because you think people will make fun of you, well, you are probably right. But don't be discouraged! That is why we need you most of all. People are put down, harassed, and abused everyday because of their sexual preferences and sexual identity. This type of discrimination causes only fear and distress. It doesn't have to be like this. With your help we can work on creating a school environment where everyone feels welcome and no one is scared. Joining this club does not make you gay, lesbian, or bisexual. It makese you an activist for equal rights. It makes you an advocate for tolerance and understanding. It makes you a person who is willing to stand up for something you believe in.
