SEATTLE GAY COUPLES
We
are an all volunteer social group for gay male couples from
all walks of life. We
provide an opportunity for you and your partner to meet
other gay couples, build lifelong friendships and explore
gay-related issues of interest to you.
We typically meet once a month for a social event, such as a
potluck or other mini-event, based on couples interests.
You'll find a lot more information about us on the
"membership" tab. Please join us, we offer a two month free
trial membership for you to get to know us better.
