^ha, never heard that one before? One of my favs, and clean enough to be posted here.

It would be nice to have a identifiable such as Davies in Vancouver, Castro in SFO, or Cedar Springs/Oaklawn in Dallas.

my first trip to the Castro was when my uncle took me and my parents when I was ten, about 15 years ago. I always teased my dad that it was that trip that turned me gay...but anyway...I've been visiting the castro every few years since that first time and I've got to say, it has really gone down hill since the first time I walked that strip. Even in SF the gay community is integrating and most of the best 'gay' clubs aren't even on the castro anymore, or all that gay. One gay club had both men and women go-go dancers and there was less than a handful of women in the whole club, so I know they weren't for them.
What suprises me most in Portland is when I go to a place I always thought was some biker dive, like my recent venture to the Lotus, and there were more gay people than straights that night...very strange.
