THE METRO AREAS WH THE LARGT, AND SMALLT, GAY POPULATNS
* gay community size queen *
First of all s a term ed for gay dus and om what I have read the gay muny big size is fetishized and is 1000 tim more important than actually is for women. As he was walkg me home after troducg me to two lol gay bars, he revealed that he was seeg a young “bottom” wh whom he had an open relatnship.
He was such a nice guy, and he was rcg himself to his “XXL” as if that was his only value as a gay man. As a gay black man who has spent most of the past 12 years livg outsi of the Uned Stat untri where gay black men are few, I am regularly rced to my size, which gay men (cludg some who are non-whe and even a few black on) generally assume is “XXL.
So many gay men seem to be so preoccupied wh size the days, though, that I wonr if they’ve always been like this, or if as Grdr and social media general have given permissn to be more upont about such thgs, they’ve bee more important than they ed to be.
A HANDY GUI TO ALL GAY MEN
Some gay men expect you to eher send a c*ck pic onle or drop trou offle before they em you worthy of their time. As a rult, there has long been a shroud of uncertaty around the geography of gay and lbian Amerins. A new analysis of Gallup survey data offers the most tailed timat yet about where people who intify as gay, lbian, bisexual or transgenr Gallup analysis fds the largt ncentratns the Wt — and not jt the expected plac like San Francis and Portland, Ore.
It seems to be a kd of regnal pal of gay life, attractg people om other parts of Utah and the Mormon the other hand, some of the East Coast plac wh famo gay neighborhoods, cludg New York, Miami and Washgton, have a smaller percentage of their populatn who intify as gay — roughly average for a big metropolan area. The least gay urban areas are the Midwt and South. Gay Ameri, rather than beg nfed to a few plac, spreads across every major regn of the untry.
6 percent of adults nsir themselv gay, lbian, bisexual or transgenr. And even the parts of the untry outsi the 50 biggt metropolan areas have a gay populatn (about 3 percent) not so different om some big metropolan areas. The share of San Francis’s populatn that’s gay is only two and a half tim larger than the share outsi major metro areas.
