there are gay folks throughout the city for decades the village was home to new york's bohemian movement which, along with beatniks and hippies, included a gay subculture the village is home of the stonewall riots and lots of lgbt activism however, the predominantly gay district in 21st century manhattan is chelsea why do you ask

you're a tad homophobic, huh not secure in your masculinity, sexuality, or something you should probably see a therapist i'm a former marine sergeant and a happy heterosexual male in a committed, loving relationship who plans to march in new york's gay pride parade this sunday why because gay rights are human rights - plain and simple i'm not gay but i'll march for gay rights i'm not black but i'll march for civil rights i'm not a union member but i'll march with aggrieved workers i have va healthcare but still i march for universal healthcare i don't live on the gulf coast anymore but still i protest bp again, why simply put, because i'm a human being with the capacity for empathy who believes in fighting for social and economic justice

now please stop turning my every thread into a place for YOU to air your social and political psychosis

actually, I have lived in several states, even did some time with the Air Force....born and raised in So. Cal....doesnt get much more liberal then that.....I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on such matters....

ok, getting back to the original post i had a great time last nite the tour was fun saw buildings haunted by eleanor roosevelt and aaron burr after the tour, i was walking through the neighborhood and saw philip seymour hoffman hung out at a comic store then grabbed a bite at a diner before the movie evil dead II on the big screen with a theater full of horror geeks was awesome
