I thought DiS would talk about it and stuff. But it's friday so maybe no-one cares.

seems a bit weird to call them lgbt children

otherwise - sure

noise_ramones | 16 May '14, 14:58 | X
Seems really fun

Good for them

6 years taking those photos?

Could have done them in an afternoon.

badmanreturns and Jordan_229_2 this'd this
read about this time ago

That said I didn't know the camp had been running for 6 years. Not sure if I'd call them LGBT children (as stated in the article) as much as gender non-conforming children, possibly a minor quibble but still one that I can see detractors latching onto.

- Buzzfeed: as many errors as regular journalism in less than 1% of the words!
  
  I think maybe you could see them as coming somewhere under the t* umbrella; it's good to be as forgiving as possible with this stuff.
  
  Except it's Buzzfeed, so fuck them.
  
  fidel_catstro @wewerewerewolvesonce | 16 May '14, 15:18 | X
  - oh would definitely agree with these kids being somewhere under the t* umbrella
    
    I think the problem is that if anything the acronym LGBT in this context brings in the added aspect of sexuality, which is not something that the camp is aiming to address.

    - Totally this ^

if everyone stops looking at buzzfeed it will eventually go away

Is Buzzfeed the new Vice?
