Does group B have any sense of community? Offline, not Online.
- hasenj 9y agoDepends. If they have their own set of values and rules (no matter how arbitrary) that don't include sexual restrictions, they might end up having their own sense of community. If their lack of sexual rules is part of a bigger 'no rules or values needed' system, then I would really doubt that they can develop a pepper sense of community.
- closeparen 9y agoYes, there are strong, tight-knit, and supportive LGBT communities in several major cities, sometimes defining semi-public spaces like bars/clubs and even entire neighborhoods like the Castro (historically). Similarly around certain activist and (performing) arts groups on college campuses, where people who are a small minority in the general population (in a way that many consider inferior or immoral) make up an overwhelming majority of the membership of some student groups. There aren't instituting "reverse" sexual morality either - straight people will be found among their membership rosters and friend groups - but they do create spaces that are particularly welcoming to non-straight people, and have large concentrations of them.
