Where can iu find more information on gay right in the stats of California?

Well, I think the question assumes that gays have more/different rights than anyone else in California.  \n\nThe rights of gays are no different (someone please tell me if I'm wrong here) than the rights of straights.  If straights have the right to do/have/want/get/own something, then so do gays.  \n\nAhh...wait...there's the marriage thing.  Gays do not have the "right" to marry in California.  Argh...(remembering college paper on topic...) if we're talking about marriage in the church, then everybody needs to shut up.  The church can make it's own rules and if you don't want to play by them, take your ball and go home.  However, I certainly would agree that the government should afford gays all the exact same rights as straights, as to those matters the government can control.\n\nAm I missing something?  If I am, someone please straighten me out.   \n\nSorry - about the question: I have to believe interested persons can google "gay rights california" and come up with something.

Well, the rough average is that 10% of the population is gay.  So, however many people are in Rhode Island total - about 10% of that number are gay.\n\nIf you search, you can find gay and lesbian groups in the state.  Also, depending on where you go to school, there is probably a gay students' group.

craigslist.com has personals for these kinds of things in every major city.  also your local independent paper will have ads for gay bars and clubs, and other things of interest to the gay community.

Are you trying to connect crime rate to homosexuals? If anything, there will be a negative correlation, since homosexuals tend to be wealthier (and therefore less likely to commit crimes).\n\nFor example, San Diego is the highest percent gay community, but I don't think their crime rate is all that high.

Hopefully sooner rather than later.  I have a link that outlines the recent history of the same sex marriage legal battle in California along with a collection of relevant links at the bottom.  Hope it helps!\n\nOh, and the second link is to a same-sex marriage advocacy organization in Cali.  Hope THAT helps too!

You'll never find such a study, as the nature of subject is "stealthy"   Large percentages of lgbt live closeted to some extent.  \n\nMost studies of gays also do not get funding from traditional sources because the subject matter makes those funding nervous.  Hence the study of biological influences on homosexuality moves at snail pace because disproving that it is a choice or something acquired from the environment upsets too many apple carts, even in more progressive countries.\n\nOooooh that was a long, no answer, huh?

I am member of HRC too, and recommend that.\n\nIn addition to jack b's recommendentations, might I suggest you look at this link, it provides a pretty extensive listing of glbt organizations\n\nhttp://faculty.washington.edu/alvin/gayorg.htm\n\nYou might also use keywords in a search for something in your town (ie gay, yourtown, groups, organizations).

How long have you been out?  I am sure there are lots of gay places around there. Boom Boom Room.  Tiger Heat (or is it beat now?).  There are so many 18 and over gay clubs.  Hamburger Mary's in Hunington.  Choices in Long Beach.  There are always a bunch of gays shopping at Fashion Island.  Maybe there are a few clost to Villa Park?\n\nChill out dude.  The chances of another gay male from Irvine being on before this question goes to the wayside is unlikely.  Go search yahoo profiles.  Don't you work during the day?
