Talk:LGBT culture in Brighton and Hove

message: I've created this article by copying all of the content from a section in the Brighton article. I've done this to help with clarity of the Brighton article. There's too much information to be included on the Brighton page and enough to deserve its own article. --Seaweed 18:51, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why create this article? 

message: This article does not discuss bisexual or transsexual people or issues on their own terms. And what about transgender people? Omphaloscope » talk 16:49, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I know of at least two groups for both demographics; Brighton Bothways and Mermaids, respectively. Might I suggest you write something about bisexual and transgendered communities in this article yourself? --Psyk0 11:07, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Unless there's another one, Mermaids is a national organisation rather than Brighton specific AFAIK. Trans-wise there's the MissTG pagent which has run here for the last few years, and The Clare Project a TS/TV/TG drop in. No mention of Winter Pride here either? ZoeP 18:59, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Putting the B & T back in LGBT 

message: I don't know when the stories appeared, as all this text was copied from the Brighton article. However, the first story about the soldier doesn't seem very relevant to this article. It's not really about the "community". The second is a bit more relevant, but with no sources given. I'm inclined to remove the first one, unless anyone thinks differently? --Seaweed 20:19, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Historical stories 

message: Where are there reliable sources on the LGBT population of Brighton and Hove? It's one of those statistics I've often seen written in papers or websites, but with no actually soruce given.  It would also be interesing if there were statistics about the demographic profile of the population. Any ideas?--Seaweed 20:23, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: When the results of 'Count Me In Too' come back, we'll hopefully have some demographic profiles of the LGBT population. In the meantime, the only thing close to an official source I've seen is a booklet by a group called Spectrum who operate down here, but the figure in that booklet was an astonishing 25-30%. Surveying sexuality is always tricky, of course; there are the inherent problems of representativity, being embarrassed or unwilling to reveal it, being unsure of your own sexuality, and then there's the issue of whether sexuality is rigid anyway and how it interacts with gender. --Psyk0 11:05, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The History section tells a clear story of how several historic events led to the LGBT community establishing itself and growing in Brighton and Hove, however there is not a single source listed for any of the claims made. For example, "evidence suggests that a floating population and good transport links with London helped its reputation as a place for the LGBT community" should at the very least specify what it means by "evidence". "During the Second World War, Brighton was filled with soldiers" should specify what it means by "filled" with a source, otherwise it's simply a weasel word.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.184.223.176 (talk) 09:59, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
