Pessimist as I am, I think that you are being too negative.

So it seems these QSAs would only be usefull to those who are out and do not care what other think, then again, if they didnt care, then why would they come to these gatherings.:confused:
You are right that fear of being a target may be a deterrent. However surely the point is that it is also for straight kids, and, hopefully quite a few kids attend so they are not the only ones. Also part of it is that the kids who are like I was at that age may be able to get a bit of strength and support from the Joshes of this world. (Josh you really are a hero).
As for your second point. I fully agree its likely to be a poor place to find a proper well matched boyfriend, but perhaps some sympathy about the difficulty of finding a boyfriend at that age is enough.
