Is it messed up if I choose to not dorm in the LGBT living community?

Let’s make room for letting people celebrate their differences. Some members of the LGBT community and a little more militant than others and those choosing to live in the LGBTQ community probablly fall in that group on this campus. OP does not have to if it’s outside his comfort zone.

I’m not suggesting that the OP live outside his comfort zone. There is no expectation from me that he needs to walk around campus waving a rainbow flag.

I also need to point out that the OP (quite rightly) edited most of the more offensive comments out of his post after I (and several other users) called him out on it, which makes my original comments come across as harsh out of that context. That said, I stand by my original comments to his unedited post. If an AA student (as just one of several possible examples) had made similar unedited negative stereotypical comments about the AA community, he would have been justly pilloried.

But to answer the crux of his question - he should live where he is comfortable. Some students love LLCs; others want no part. Either way is fine. You need to do what is right for you.
