All the queer elders we had were ex-bethelites. If they were married (bearded), their wives clearly knew it and looked away. Maybe the ones that go like 2 years and get out aren't, but "lifers?"
Lifers are totally YMCA.

Let's get back on topic. If you actually know someone who has gone to Bethel for reasons other than printed in the WT and Yearbooks, or have gone there yourself and want to share, please do. If you want to speculate on how many Bethelites are gay, please do so in another thread.

I always got the impression they were a bit effeminate, not gay though. Maybe they were so skinny & frail from a lack of food.
As for the topic, some couldn't take having to work low paying jobs (due to education) and having to support themselves ... so they went to Bethel.
