A young cy (much of the populatn Vietnam is unr 30), 's filled wh spunky, lean, f and handsome gays, most of whom are genuely iendly and lookg for a stable, longterm love. Gays here long ago lonized all sorts of semi-private, non-gay bs for their own social purpos.

DIPLOMATIC TENSN REPORTEDLY RISG BETWEEN UNED STAT AND JAMAI OVER GAY AMERIN DIPLOMAT

Asi om the more open gay bars, diss, spas and snas, there are cisg parks, fns centers, public pools, happy hair salons, and even Inter f�s wh hook-up spac for the lols.

However, most gays are not yet willg to be regnized and, so, most of the gay life remas discreet and unrground, and growg ranks of pk llar profsnals regularly pe to nearby Cambodia, Thailand or Taiwan for their advanced gay hobbi. As of 2015, Vietnam regnis same sex unns to some extent and an open discsn of homosexualy is ripplg through Vietname society a fundamental way. From famo poets to fashnistas, gays have, of urse, always been an tegral thread the fabric of Vietnam.

A GAY UPLE RAN A RAL RTRANT PEACE. THEN NEW NEIGHBORS ARRIVED.

Disver Ho Chi Mh Cy and all has to offer wh a gay-iendly tour gui who looks after your safety and welfare at all tim.

This humble, gay-owned rtrant serv up outstandg Bun D, Northern style rice noodle k, ied tofu, sliced pork, and cd�s eaten wh eher fermented shrimp paste sce or dark soy sce (wh optnal red chili and a bottle of garlic sce to add even more pow). Gay-owned rtrant rated like a untrysi garn, jt down a small, moto-crowd alley, and up on the rooftop of an old buildg, right the heart of the cy and oppose another popular gay-owned hole--the-wall, Bun D Ngo Nho Phu Nho.

This event, huge as might be, is only a part of a larger scene, where proment NGOs such as ISEE ph for acceptance and tolerance of LGBT general, and gays Vietnam particular through myriad workshops, talk shows, and onle events. The latt events have shown that the untry has gone through major chang om a homophobic society to a more tolerant one, allowg for a flourishg, albe still somewhat unrground, gay culture which has a fair share of unique perks and tras.

Artifacts om the era suggted that Vietname at that time actively promoted sexual exploratn and sexual terurse, irrpective whether heterosexually or homosexually, to fd the perfect harmony wh nature, thereby promotg fertily and prospery to the lol muny.

The first documented se of homosexualy Vietnam’s history appeared a legal lled Hong Duc Thien Chh Thu.

However, on the ground that the hband’s seeds might have been transferred om the pregnant woman to the other durg homosexual terurse, the urt led her nocent. It is tertg to note that there was no nvictn of homosexualy the official rerd of the se, and seems homosexualy was not nsired a social crime at that time, as evinced other ntemporaneo rerds.

French lonists likened homosexual practic Vietnam to those Cha, even went so far as to state the former was hered om the latter.
