Great initiative. There is this relatively new online project Gay Story (in English). Today it launched its standalone Armenian version - Gay Story - Armenia.
I can only commend people behind this online project. Well done, guys !!
As they say: Share your stories. It helps.
The website and stories are in Armenian, and will be particularly relevant to LGBT people in Armenia and Diaspora, or anyone who knows Armenian. They are not fiction. They are real. Real life stories.
I encourage you to participate in this initiative and submit your stories.
These are the main topics that you may submit your stories about:
Am I Gay?
Coming Out
First time sex
Gay Love
Homophobia
First story - a very honest and well written - have already been posted by Mary. It touched me, and I felt very emotional.... ԴՈՒ ՄԵՆԱԿ ՉԵՍ… (‘You are not alone’)
