Zboralski was born in Nowa Sól where he grew up and graduated from high school.
He became a victim to the secret Operation Hyacinth[5][6] organised by the Polish communist police. The purpose of the operation was to create a national database of all homosexuals and people who had some sort of contact with them.[7]
Zboralski arrived in Warsaw in 1986 and lived there for two years – from January 1986 to April 1988 – where he was an active participant and organizer of Warsaw gay movement.[4] In 1987, he was a co-founder and the first chairman of Warsaw Gay Movement.[8][9] In March 1988 Zboralski and a group of 15 people, including Sławek Starosta and Krzysztof Garwatowski, filed a formal application to register the Warsaw Gay Movement.[4] The application was rejected due to an intervention from General Kiszczak, Minister of Internal Affairs, for stated reasons of "public morality".[4]
Zboralski was called by Radio Free Europe's research as a member of “Independent movement in Eastern Europe” for the first time on 17 November 1988.[10]
According to Krzysztof Tomasik, author of the book "Gejerel. Mniejszości seksualne w PRL-u" ("Gayerel. Sexual minorities in PRL"), Zboralski was the "gay Wałęsa", "the main force behind Warsaw gay movement".[11]
Zboralski has been lobbying for the legalization of same-sex marriages in Poland, he was the first person to publish articles on this subject in the Polish press.[12]

Retrieved 14 December 2013. ...Poker-faced, Cameron refuses to address the contradiction in his position: he says he wouldn't ally with anti-gay politicians, yet here they are, making blatantly anti-gay statements. Whenever I raise it, he tries to change the subject. All the parties in Poland are equally bad on gay rights, he says. I tell him that's not what the Polish gay equality groups say. The veteran gay activist Waldemar Zboralski says: "The Law and Justice Party is by far the most homophobic party in Poland, and Mr Kaminski is the leading symbol of homophobia in this country. It's very strange for Mr Cameron to deny this; it is indisputable...

Jeśli chodzi o gejowskiego Wałęsę to była taka postać – nazywał się Waldemar Zboralski. To on był takim spiritus movens warszawskiego ruchu homoseksualistów. To on był pierwszym przewodniczącym i właściwie jako pierwszy zaczął pojawiać się w mediach jako przedstawiciel homoseksualistów. Starał się być wzorem na wzór zachodni. Wtedy też pojawiła się kwestia zachorowań na AIDS, więc Zboralski jako wzór do naśladowania dla innych zrobił sobie test i pokazał go publicznie. Pochodził z małego miasteczka, z rodziny robotniczej i nosił wąsy, więc niejako naturalnie został takim gejowskim Wałęsą.
