The Gay Yiffy Club, also commonly known as GYC or [GYC], is a LGBT-friendly social group location online.

Overview

Initially a dream in the RPG Furcadia, GYC later moved locations to the online virtual world Second Life. It caters to gay, straight, bisexual, and transgender furries, and being a mature establishment, it allows public yiffing on its premises.

History

The Gay Yiffy Club was first built by Dutch fur Senjin the dragon (Senjin Soothsayer), on the RPG Furcadia in 2001. Its name also stems from this era, as the dream's title had to describe it.

It was the first, and at its time, the only dream where the Furcadia avatars were naked. After some drama caused by members and staff of a neighboring dream, plus the demise of the dream's server, the club was dismantled and never rebuilt on Furcadia again.

In 2005, Senjin would rebuild GYC on Second Life in the mainland region (sim) Donders. In 2006, while being run by fellow Dutch fur Kiroja (SL name: Kiroja Fluffy), GYC moved to the private sim Silverstone in the Silverdreams cluster owned by Angel Fluffy.

On December 13, 2008, the club moved to a new private sim owned by the club itself called Rinji. Then, in August 2010, the GYC management acquired a new sim next to Rinji called Jia for the commercial buildings to be moved there and to reduce overall lag.

GYC's current owners are Kiroja Fluffy and Myke Patton.

Club policies and features

Although the name suggests the club only caters to gay furry males, the club is very open and welcoming to any gender, species, and/or orientation.

The club features a dance floor, pool, bar, and lounge area, as well as four private rooms, which can be freely used by anyone who wants a little privacy. The club also has a shopping center, where anyone can rent vendor spaces. After the Raised Tail Inn (an escort service) was demolished, GYC started its own.
