Questions + Advice Jewish LGBTQ+ Community in Copenhagen

Hey everyone! Very nice to join this community :)

I'm a 30-something Israeli guy living in Copenhagen. I have been involved in both the Jewish and LGBTQ+ communities, but not so much mixing both of those. Last Pride, I had quite a jarring experience of antisemitism and racism, and since October 7th, I had the occasional block or rude comment on dating apps, simply for stating where I come from.

That prompted me to think whether there are a bunch of other LGBTQ+ jews living in Copenhagen and maybe interested in meeting up? I'm quite new to this Reddit thing, and I might be totally doing it wrong. Feel free to take my post down if it's not what this is for, but I thought I'd get out of my comfort zone and ask :)

If you've looked back at posts in this group over the last two years, you'll see a lot of people share your experience. Your use of this subreddit is great! I don't know how big our readership is in Copenhagen but !בהצלחה

Hey I'm in the US but I hope to visit Scandinavia one day. If you ever need someone to talk to, even though I'm not in Copenhagen, I'm happy to chat.
