Apparently, as defined by Urban Dictionary: "When straight girls (and sometimes their straight boyfriends or husbands too) meet up with their gay friends for brunch on Sunday." ..Well, that's at least the general idea. The New York City Gay Boy Brunch is intended to be an queer and allied inclusive space for those in our all ages to have brunch together in one of the best restaurant cities in the world. Occasionally we might have a few lunches or dinners, but for the most part we'll stick to Sa …

This group is for gay men who love female comics. Most comedy shows in NYC have either all men or almost all men. But us gays know that female comics are where it's at. I love to laugh and meet people at the same time.

We are a group of gay guys of all ages who meet the first Wednesday of every month. We read an eclectic range of books from classics to just-released works. We don't necessarily read books with a gay theme or characters, but always open to suggestions. Very easy going; more social than academic. Generally we talk about the book for the first part of the meeting and then the conversation evolves (or maybe devolves) to talking about anything else:  pop culture, gay life, vacations, etc.  We meet a …

Do you like craft beers? Do you enjoy hanging out with other people who enjoy craft beers? Then you're in the right place. The purpose of this group is to provide an opportunity for gay folks to get together to drink beer and have fellowship with other like-minded individuals. A lot of bars that cater to the gay market don't have the best beer selection so we can use this opportunity to take the gays to the bars that have the best beers! Beer Club is an inclusive group, encouraging members to “c …

Whether you're looking for something new or for whatever reason don't gel with the "scene" and its "party-every-night" mentality, here's your opportunity to hang out with other young, amazing and like-minded gays.  We'd love for you to join the group and introduce yourself!

As a guy who goes out all the time, its tough to find other gay and lesbian people whose social life is like me: 1) hangs out only in straight clubs/events; 2) friends are straight; 3) big sports fan; 4) can appreciate the opposite gender and find them beautiful w/o having to sleep with them; and 5) not out as gay. The difference with the other meetups is that I am happy with my lifestyle and really don't want to change it up (yet). So I figured, start a meet up group and see if there are others …

This is a group for gay international men and their friends. All homosexual men born and raised outside the USA, or born in the USA with a love of foreign langauges, films, cultures, music, food and traditions are welcome. I decided to start this group after checking out a Straight International Happy Hour through MeetUp and decided that we gay men need our own. I'm sure that this group will take on a life of its own once it gets started, but some topics that we could discuss include, but are …

Williamsburg and the surrounding neighborhoods have been expanding with artists, hipsters, eclectic people of all sorts and a fairly large gay community. Williamsburg is a haven for culture and diversity and a great central point for nearby neighborhoods of Greenpoint, Bushwick, and Long Island City, to name a few....all communities joined by Queens and Brooklyn's very own "G" train!  We're fortunate to live in or take part in one of the most dynamic neighborhoods in NYC.  This group incorporate …

The goal of this meetup group is to provide a forum of support for gay men suffering from shyness and social anxiety. Social anxiety can manifest itself in our lives in a range of different ways. From a seemingly harmless shyness around others to the panic and fear of agoraphobia, social anxiety's impact on our lives runs the full spectrum. First off, I think sharing our stories amongst each other will help us learn that we are not alone. Second, I think developing a support system can be a c …

A place to make friends with some of the most open minded people in NYC.

I grew up in a homophobic part of New York City and have experienced alot of mistreatment and abuse when coming out to people. I have also lost alot of friends in the coming out process and understand that it is tough to make friends that are lgbt or allies. I have recently started talking to a few people who are lgbt or lgbt friendly and I have learned that no one deserves to be mistreated or ignored because of his/her sexuality or gender. That being said, I am hoping that people who have g …
