THEAPP was developed to allow gay community members to interact safely with and acts as a guide to "LGBTQ friendly merchants and services".
In many societies up until about fifty years ago, gay people were treated as “second class” and in some circles ostracized (or worse). In more recent years gender identity and sexual orientation have become acceptable terms, and thankfully there are now support services available to the community. The Stonewall Riots, also called the Stonewall Uprising, took place on June 28, 1969, in New York City, after police raided the Stonewall Inn, a local gay club. Gay rights and influence have gained ground steadily in the half century since then. Terms like trans-sexual and bisexual are now accepted as genders and recognized by most in the mainstream. No longer do community members have to be embarrassed or concerned about seeing a doctor for HIV testing. Lesbian, and bisexual young people are still sometimes harassed and all LGBTQ youth need a tool to allow them to interact freely in the real world without facing hate or disrespect!
THEAPP from LGBTQ.ONE fills this need.
Bisexual, transgender, or questioning, you can now travel, enjoy leisure time, and visit New York City, Los Angeles or San Francisco, or any other major world centers for the annual gay festivals, vacation or business and find friendly, respectful, and accepting vendors, merchants, and services to employ and avoid conflict and disparities as gay men and women. Check out this fantastic new tool today at THEAPP.ONE

FAQ’s:
Q So, what’s “NEW” about LGBTQ? And WHAT is this “DOT ONE”?
A The truth is, just about everything about LGBTQ.ONE IS new, including the DOT ONE. Most folks recognize the LGBTQ, as a diverse global community, open to all, emerging in the 70’s and pretty much is universal today.
THE ONE , However, offers more History and a LOT more Mystery. The ONE movement was the very first public GL entity in the United States and was organized in San Francisco, in 1952. and is Still a powerful force today in the community, fewer people know about the power of ONE.
Q “So how did you get the “DOT ONE” URL, I have never seen that extension before, is it special?
A We like to think so, I guess you could say we were in the right place at the right time. We knew what our mission was, and we were researching the site names available at the time. None of them seemed to convey EXACTLY what we were all about, what our statement was. Then we discovered that in 2016, the United States Government released an extension never before seen by the public, DOT ONE. We knew when we saw, LGBTQ.ONE. This was who we are!
Q The “DOT” in LGBTQ.ONE is a “Green Carnation” Tell us what's going on there?
A That is a wink and a tip of the hat to our friend Oscar Wilde. Taking us all the way back to 1894, and the novel “The Green Carnation” It’s a symbol of Oscar himself. In 1892, Wilde had one of the actors in Lady Windermere’s Fan wear a green carnation on opening night and told his young followers to wear them too. Soon the carnation became an emblem of Wilde and his group, an amusing parody of Wilde was published in 1894 called The Green Carnation and caused quite a stir.

We seek PEACEFUL, meaningful and fulfilling exchanges between members of the LGBTQ community and the merchants who desire to serve them.
Until now it was a gamble! A Gay person never knew when he or she walked into a merchant's business what they were going to be confronted with.
The merchant could be open, honest, respectful and everything can go right. Unfortunately, the merchants can be biased, homophobic, or just plain crazy and things can go south and get very ugly. Traveling or at home, leisure time should be LGBTQ SAFE time.
