Description:: Good as Me, or GAM, is dedicated to victims of LGBTphobia.

GAM is also dedicated to ALL the LGBT people who do not personally feel comfortable with being L, G, B, or T and who would like to find a positive outcome suitable to themselves.

GAM starts from the 2 following closely related statements:

- LGBT people are being killed due to LGBTphobia (Being LGBT has been considered to date as a crime in 77 countries)

- Suicide rates are high amongst LGBT people because living in a LGBT hostile environment can be unbearable.

GAM thinks being yourself is vital and endeavours to supply you with the info you might need to find your way to feel better and BE YOURSELF.

Why the name Good As Me?

For decades many from the LGBT community have followed the Good As You (GAY) movement which implies GAY activists to constantly prove they are as good as heterosexual people. I'm grateful to GAY activists and I think their work is socially necessary as LGBTphobia also comes from not knowing LGBT people. Proving I am as good as you can help you getting to know me better and can lead to understanding and respect from you to me. Good As Me, or GAM, comes as a complement to the GAY movement. GAM means people should also prove to LGBT people they are as good as them and that LGBT people should expect that from people. (read less)
