An LGBT group at Brigham Young University tell the world that "It Gets Better"—even for gay Mormons.
The video's YouTube description explains the group:
Understanding Same-Gender Attraction) is an unofficial group of Brigham Young University students, faculty, and friends who wish to strengthen families and the BYU community by providing a place for open, respectful discussions on the topic of same-gender attraction. USGA is not an appropriate forum for angry, vulgar, or profane remarks of any kind, nor for expressions of antagonism against any person or organization. In order to foster an environment of respect and understanding, we ask all participants to be respectful of BYU, the Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints (Mormon), and the beliefs and experiences of others.

Thanks for sharing this. The video was really touching. Being raised mormon and going on a Mormon Mission - this video really hit home for me.

I have to admit that I was fortunate to have a family that Idid support me, but my personal struggle with being gay was quite hard during my undergraduate years. Iit gives me such joy to listen to these young adults as they are finding out who they are and finding support at an institution such as BYU. Thanks for sharing this video!
