thanks for the reply Abi

This came up also during the big discussion before, and when it comes down to it RYL is a forum for support of Self Harm, ED, and things associated with that, it is not a forum for the support of people who are confused about their sexuality or gender. However, the fact that many LGBT people have a lot of feelings and experiences specific to being LGBT that factor into their SH/SI/ED was recongized during the last discussion and thus the Rainbow room was allowed to stay.

I'm not saying at all that you shouldn't have a place to discuss your life style, but my point is you should do it in the Rainbow Room, to reduce the number of "Room" type threads on RYL.
