Welcome to GAY GEEKS, a group where people from the GLBTQ+ community and their supporters are able to discuss issues and get to know each other without judgement or trolling by GLBTQ-phobic time-wasters. Gay Geeks of New York, LLC (GGNY) plans and organizes numerous social events for members of the LGBTQ community and their straight allies who are fans of a variety of geeky interests. We must be holiday geeks around here—because we’ve discovered that every July 13 is Embrace Your Geekness Day.

And social media has so many #gaygeek posts to enjoy on this joyfully nerdy. Geeks OUT is a (c) (3) non-profit that seeks to rally, promote, and empower the queer geek community. We do so by organizing events, attending conventions, coordinating queer spaces at other events, launching advocacy campaigns, and producing Flame Con – the world’s largest LGBTQ comics and pop culture convention.
