SMU GLBT Social Network
Hi everyone,

We are a group of SMU students who are kickstarting a GLBT social network in the school. We hope that through this network, we will be able to foster greater social interaction and friendship between GLBT students in SMU. At the same time, this would be a place for the exchange of ideas freely and the sharing of experiences. If you are interested, just simply indicate your interest by replying to this email.

Thank you. =)

Regards,
hooked2trance

Launch of PLUME
A group of young queer Singaporeans have come together to start a youth portal establishing itself as a resource for their peers.

The name PLUME stands for People Like You and Me, an amalgamation of the acronym, PLU (People Like Us), which has incidentally become widely used to describe gay people in Singapore, and Senior Minister Goh's widely quoted phrase that gay people are just like "you and me".

The logo centers on a youth's sense of individuality with the circle ringed around ME in PLUME. It also means 'feather'; the jagged wings symbolise the act of taking flight - to discover the unlimited potential as young people and to be free from the mental constraints society imposes based on sexual and/or gender identity.

Oogachaga Men support group
OC Men is a support group for gay men who are coming to terms with their sexuality and want to achieve a healthy integration of their lives and sexual identity. Started in June 1999, OC Men has since given dozens of Singaporean gay men - young and older - a space in which to develop greater self-awareness and confidence to be who they are.

Through our support group meetings, we explore issues such as stereotypes, coming out, relationships, self-esteem, being single, safer sex, etc.

There will be two separate groups starting in August 2006 and run for four months. One will be facilitated in Mandarin and the other in English.

If you are interested in joining the support group, please write to Yang. For more information, please visit our website.
