I couldn't think of any of the gay guys that changeling mentioned in that thread, but there were some seriously tough gals in one of my old halls. Pioneered, never hung out with the other young single types. They displayed no interest in men, and even the desparate young males would have nothing to do with them. They seemed alone and sad to me.
This isn't confined to JW's. About twelve years ago while they were in high school one of my daughters friends came out to her strict Christian parents. They freaked out and she left the house for the night. They called us looking for her and expressed utter shock at what she'd told them. My wife and I had the same reaction: "Have you looked at your daughter?"
