For many, being a part of a group like this also provides the opportunity to be with friends and peers. It is a place for support and sharing of ideas, exploring and finding resources and meeting new friends.
“I need to know there are other people like me in this world. I can belong to this group and don’t feel alone.”
“I want other people to know I am a normal guy.”
“I want to have fun and meet new friends.”
