IS SOMEONE YOU KNOW
AFRAID OF THE CLOS ET?
THEY SHOULD BE! LET 'EM KNOW ABOUT
THE WOMYN'S
COMING
OUT GROUP
Coming out of the doset is a lifelong process. First, to
yourself, then to family and friends, your work - it goes on
and on - never stopping.
Many people, you probably know someone-maybe
even you!, would like someone to talk to about the steps
they can take or are in the process of taking.
A group, just for you - or a friend, has been started by
Tulsa Oklahomans for Human Rights (TOHR)! The Womyn's Coming Out Support Group had their first meeting
recently and look forward to the coming year.
The Womyn's Coming Out Group meets every other
Saturday at 4:00 PM at the Tulsa GLBT Community Center. Call 743.4297 - ask for Angela for more information.
DO YOU KNOW MEN WHO ARE AFRAID OF THE

---~► Bl(SEXUAL):
ONE WHO HAS SIGNIFICANT
(TO ONESELF) SEXUAL OR ROMANTIC
ATTRACTIONS TO MEMBERS OF BOTH
THE SAME GENDER AND/OR SEX
The Bi(sexual) person, a large part of the Gay, Lesbian, Bi and Transgender community, is often misunderstood.
Contrary to popular myths,.people who are attracted to
members of both genders or sexes (just like people who
are attracted only to members of the same or other gender
or sex) may be monogamous, polyfidelitous or nonmonogamous.
Derogatory terms from homophobes are the same as
those for gays and lesbians, plus AC/DC, double-ga(l)ted,
or confused. Derogatoryterms used by lesbians, gay men
and some heterosexuals include: traitor, fraternizing with
the enemy or just confused.
Biphobia is the oppression or mistreatment of bisexuals, either by heterosexuals (often called homophobia if
does not target bisexuals separately from gay men & lesb1ans), or by lesbians or gay men
Did, or does, someone hate or fear you because of
who you are attracted too? If you're gay or lesbian, that
answer is true. If you're bi, that is also true. But, some of
those who do not like bi's are in the GLBT community.
Is that the way you would like to be treated. Think
about it. You might have been there.

GLBT COMMUNITY URGED NOT
TO GIVE TO SALVATION ARMY
Salvation Army leadership recently rescinded domestic
partnership status for the Western territory due to extremist
fundamentals striving to take the organization back to the
stone age.
This, combined with secret deal making with the Bush
administration to discriminate against the Gay, Lesbian, Bi
and Transgender allied community as part of the "faithbased• initiative, has prompted action.
Taking action against discrimination, the TOHR Board
of Directors approved "For Whom the Bell Tolls?" at an extended board meeting.
"For Whom the Bell Tolls?" is simple:
Take the enclosed "For Whom the
Bell Tolls?" card (make copies if you
wish) and put in the buckets of Salvation Army bell ringers at the entrance
of stores.
A small step, but an important one. The bell buckets
can overflow with cards - so stuff the buckets.
You can also call the local Salvation Army headquarters and tell them WHY you're not giving by reaching:

•TOHR SUPPORTING OTHERS
YOU'RE ENCOURAGED TO HELP
GLBT FAMILIES BY GIVING
The time of giving is upon us; from hectic malls to
online shopping sites - almost everyone is busy with the
holidays. This year, let's look beyond gifts for family and
friends. Remember that the holiday season is also a great
time to help the less fortunate - as it should be all the time.
Tulsa Oklahomans for Human Rights (TOHR) has established the "FAIRY TREE" for our GLBT community in
need.
A few families have been chosen, that without your
help, will not have a holiday season.
The "FAIRY TREE" is located at the Tulsa Gay, Lesbian, Bi and Transgender (GLBT) Community Center,
2114 S Memorial.
Here's what you do:
1. Go by the community center and find a holiday 'tag'
hanging on the fairy tree.
2. Pick a tag that you would like to fill the request(s).
3. Fill out the bottom portion of the tag, tear it off and
give to· the volunteer in the Pride Store. (if the store is
not open, slide it under the door).
4. Go shopping! Get your gift(s)!
5. Deliver the wrapped or unwrapped gift(s), along with
tag, back to the GLBT Community Center no later
than December 19th.
Your job is now done! And because of
y9u - someone less fortunate will have a
better holiday season.

IS SOMEONE YOU KNOW
AFRAID OF THE CLOS ET?
THEY SHOULD BE! LET 'EM KNOW ABOUT
THE WOMYN'S
COMING
OUT GROUP
Coming out of the doset is a lifelong process. First, to
yourself, then to family and friends, your work - it goes on
and on - never stopping.
Many people, you probably know someone-maybe
even you!, would like someone to talk to about the steps
they can take or are in the process of taking.
A group, just for you - or a friend, has been started by
Tulsa Oklahomans for Human Rights (TOHR)! The Womyn's Coming Out Support Group had their first meeting
recently and look forward to the coming year.
The Womyn's Coming Out Group meets every other
Saturday at 4:00 PM at the Tulsa GLBT Community Center. Call 743.4297 - ask for Angela for more information.

---~► Bl(SEXUAL):
ONE WHO HAS SIGNIFICANT
(TO ONESELF) SEXUAL OR ROMANTIC
ATTRACTIONS TO MEMBERS OF BOTH
THE SAME GENDER AND/OR SEX
The Bi(sexual) person, a large part of the Gay, Lesbian, Bi and Transgender community, is often misunderstood.
Contrary to popular myths,.people who are attracted to
members of both genders or sexes (just like people who
are attracted only to members of the same or other gender
or sex) may be monogamous, polyfidelitous or nonmonogamous.
Derogatory terms from homophobes are the same as
those for gays and lesbians, plus AC/DC, double-ga(l)ted,
or confused. Derogatoryterms used by lesbians, gay men
and some heterosexuals include: traitor, fraternizing with
the enemy or just confused.
Biphobia is the oppression or mistreatment of bisexuals, either by heterosexuals (often called homophobia if
does not target bisexuals separately from gay men & lesb1ans), or by lesbians or gay men
Did, or does, someone hate or fear you because of
who you are attracted too? If you're gay or lesbian, that
answer is true. If you're bi, that is also true. But, some of
those who do not like bi's are in the GLBT community.
Is that the way you would like to be treated. Think
about it. You might have been there.

GLBT COMMUNITY URGED NOT
TO GIVE TO SALVATION ARMY
Salvation Army leadership recently rescinded domestic
partnership status for the Western territory due to extremist
fundamentals striving to take the organization back to the
stone age.
This, combined with secret deal making with the Bush
administration to discriminate against the Gay, Lesbian, Bi
and Transgender allied community as part of the "faithbased• initiative, has prompted action.
Taking action against discrimination, the TOHR Board
of Directors approved "For Whom the Bell Tolls?" at an extended board meeting.
"For Whom the Bell Tolls?" is simple:
Take the enclosed "For Whom the
Bell Tolls?" card (make copies if you
wish) and put in the buckets of Salvation Army bell ringers at the entrance
of stores.
A small step, but an important one. The bell buckets
can overflow with cards - so stuff the buckets.
You can also call the local Salvation Army headquarters and tell them WHY you're not giving by reaching:

Area Commander

•TOHR SUPPORTING OTHERS
YOU'RE ENCOURAGED TO HELP
GLBT FAMILIES BY GIVING
The time of giving is upon us; from hectic malls to
online shopping sites - almost everyone is busy with the
holidays. This year, let's look beyond gifts for family and
friends. Remember that the holiday season is also a great
time to help the less fortunate - as it should be all the time.
Tulsa Oklahomans for Human Rights (TOHR) has established the "FAIRY TREE" for our GLBT community in
need.
A few families have been chosen, that without your
help, will not have a holiday season.
The "FAIRY TREE" is located at the Tulsa Gay, Lesbian, Bi and Transgender (GLBT) Community Center,
2114 S Memorial.
Here's what you do:
1. Go by the community center and find a holiday 'tag'
hanging on the fairy tree.
2. Pick a tag that you would like to fill the request(s).
3. Fill out the bottom portion of the tag, tear it off and
give to· the volunteer in the Pride Store. (if the store is
not open, slide it under the door).
4. Go shopping! Get your gift(s)!
5. Deliver the wrapped or unwrapped gift(s), along with
tag, back to the GLBT Community Center no later
than December 19th.
Your job is now done! And because of
y9u - someone less fortunate will have a
better holiday season.
