--- Quote from: Linds on 11 Aug 2010, 19:36 ---I disagree. Maybe it's just my city (and that's what I'm entirely basing this off of), but there is a neighborhood here called Northside (aka the Gayborhood*) that is full of both gay men and women alike. Actually, there's a pretty large queer and trans community here as well, so that may be a part of that, but I would honestly say that there are just as many gay women who live or spend a lot of time in Northside. From what I've gathered from all my time with the LGBTQ community here in the past few years is that they all really like being together in the same community or at least atmosphere. But it's not contained in that community only by any means, but it is the dominant one. I know there's this weird taboo-like thing among gay men and women, but it's not always so, but again I think it's just largely due to this town.

Or it could just be that Northside is easily one of the best, most awesome parts of this city and is just full of chill, loving, awesome people.

I am not. I am about 20 pounds overweight at this point (:-() but I do not look like Seth Rogan.

My point is that at least one of the guys at the gay bar across the street from my apartment is a jerk.

Not really. Outside of that community, Cincinnati is full of racists, douchebags, and snobs. It just happens to have a few pockets where all the cool people with brains hang out. (I am very thankful they do exist or I would probably go batshit.)

pwhodges:
Hey, overweight guys, lose it now!  You know why?  If you leave it 'til you're my age, your skin has lost its stretch and you end up all wrinkled like a prune - and you wouldn't want that, would you?  (Oh, and - heart attacks: not good.)

Radical AC:
Is there ever an age where you can just stop caring, or it at more of a state of mind thing?

I'm originally from Berkeley.  And, last month when visiting my uncle we were trying to find a place to go in San Fran using the GPS on his iphone.  It took us and my two, four-year-old cousins through the Castro.  He was worried about being a bad parent, and I assured him they were a) too young to understand b) you end up way more well adjusted if you take things like sex shops in stride.  :-P

Now I live in Idaho, where it is completely legal to fire someone for being gay.  In addition it is a right to work state where they can fire you for no reason even if there is another discriminatory reason they want to fire you for.  There has been legislation that has been in the state senate to make it illegal to fire you for said reason, but it's never even made it to vote.  I'm sure (or hope) Ohio is better for tolerance than Idaho.  At the very least legally.
