Variety-Q Releases New Online Gay and Lesbian Social Network.
Variety-Q has created a new online gay and lesbian social network and dating community. The website Variety-Q.com is an all-inclusive site designed to encourage networking and communications within the GLBT community. The social network provides its members an opportunity to share pictures, videos, instant/private messaging and email all within the community. The site also features a community forum to encourage member participation.
Variety-Q significantly differs from other online social networking communities by focusing solely on the GLBT community, which includes an estimated 16.5 million people within the United States alone (according to Planet Out Partners, Inc. 2003).
Variety-Q.com maximizes its appeal to GLBT individuals by consisting of several small communities that reflect the diverse populations within the GLBT community. Each community is directed to the Variety-Q.com site via its own URL. Community members are also provided direct URLs to their individual profiles within the website.
The communities consist of the following: -Variety-Q: The main site including the general community for our GLBT members. -Pride Parent World: gay and lesbian parents or prospective parents -Find My LTR: gay dating and networking -Sapphic Hearts: general lesbian community -Black Sapphic: African-American lesbian community -Black Retreat: African-American gay community -Gay Othello: gay singles and couples seeking interracial relationships
Existing GLBT communities are primarily providing dating venues for the community. To this end, Variety-Q.com welcomes couples and mature members by providing them with a space to network, blog, share details in addition to the dating component. The website will focus heavily on the community forum. The forum includes topics surrounding issues of social, political, medical and familial importance within the GLBT community. Professionals are featured to help members who seek advice on specific issues related to a particular forum discussion.
"We are hoping that the GLBT community will respond to our efforts to provide a valuable service. Our VQ-TV video channel includes new content via the YouTube community, our forums are relevant and we have designed a website around community versus strictly dating. Additionally, our dedication to equality for the gay and lesbian community is demonstrated by our commitment to GLBT non-profit organizations" said Damien Gray, CEO of Variety Board (the parent company of Variety-Q.com).
Variety-Q.com is a private venture designed to form an all-inclusive virtual gay and lesbian community. The website can be reached via www.Variety-Q.com.
