Exclamation Black Gay Fraternity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've noticed that there are lots of black gay men who would love to pledge Fraternities, but they are not accepted for who they are. I am a very strong supporter for gay men in fraternities, but hiding ones true self is not the way to go.

I've also noticed that there are underground sororities, but these are black gay men who are pledging in sororities. Although I am a strong believer of gay men in fraternities I do find this to be very disrespectful to the real women who have worked hard to claim the name!

So in 2009 I will start a new breed a fraternities for black gay men nation wide. No, we will not be apart of the Divine Nine as we shall start our own chapters, brotherhood and legacies just like you did!

We are not some Fraudulent ******** organization, unlike the MIAKAs OR DELTA GENTS. So ALPHA PHI ALPHA AND ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA MEET ALPHA IOTA ALPHA. The name is not set in stone yet but I thought it would be nice to keep the ALPHA at the beginning and ALPHA at the end to symbolize that we are the first FATHERS and FOUNDERS of black gay Greek nation wide.

WILD IN WHITE

OUTRAGEOUS IN ORANGE!

PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK!

I think Delta Phi Upsilon beat you to the punch.

So did Alpha Lamabda Zeta which is an all female fraternity. I've asked so many people who are of Greek affiliation which gay frat I should pledge and not one person could give me the name of any Fraternity, which they are pretty much unknown, no shade to them.

OK. That just means you need to do a little research. Now you have two organiations to choose from.

If that's the case, I find it hard to believe you've never seen a member of a black gay fraternity, or people who could link you to one.

Anyway, look into the two fraternities posted.

I thought your use of the alphas signified your being "first"?

Whatever, though. You do you. Good luck.

I also stated that the name is not set in stone yet. there is still time to get it right. THE THIRD TIME IS USUALLY THE CHARM.

...unless the first two are already doing the job.

It's usually a lot easier to ask an existing organization to expand as opposed to starting your own.

I am not mistaken.

Perhaps your pride experience begins when the sun goes down and not during the workshops and exhibitions?

It would be a charm if there wasn't also Kappa Psi Kappa and Lambda Phi Theta, too.
