[net.motss] Being "out" in a dorm

rh@mit-eddie.UUCP (Randy Haskins) (04/27/84)

I'd not thought about it much, but it occurs to me that back in my dorm
days, most of the people who were openly gay lived in one of the two
dorms on the east side of campus, while there was little obvious
homosexuality on the other side of campus (where most of the dorms and
many frats were).  That is, as far as I know, because I lived in one of
the east-side dorms, and didn't get to the other side of campus much.
The other eastern dorm had a quite large apparently bisexual contingent.
It seems that the nature of the east-side would have been much more
tolerable toward homosexuality than that of the west-side.  (On this
side of campus, the incidence of female bisexuality was phenomenal.
Amazing for a school with a 4:1 man-woman ratio...)
