What is the GayBombay Mailing List?
The Gay Bombay Mailing list is one of the many interactive features of the GayBombay group, one of which the group is extremely proud of. It is the oldest interactive channel started way back in 1999 to establish an open and safe space in Cyberia where members subscribed to it could interact with other gay people. Today we have
nearly 1500 (Yes!! One Thousand Five Hundred ) members subscribed to what is generally referred to as the lifeline of the Gay Bombay Group. You can check out the Archives of the Mailing List which are a rich resource of articles on gay related issues and opinions expressed by its members over the past years.
