THE BEST AUCKLAND GAY CLUBS & BARSGAY CLUBS & BARS AUCKLAND

Yet pockets of both our largt cy and the pal, there is a gay old time to be lived both Auckland and Wellgton the last few years, I'm often asked which cy is more nducive to the most open, supportive, and fun gay ci have their pros and ns, but overall I prefer Wellgton. It's unlike most ci wh cross-sectns of people om all ends of the polil spectm — Wellgton, social nservatism, homophobia, and other kds of bigotry don't really isn't to say that Auckland is an alt-right haven of anti-gay sentiment, but there are parts of the cy where I'd fear somewhat for my safety (I unt verbal abe and even judgmental looks as harmful; not all homophobic aggrsn has to be physil) if I were to hold hands wh another the exceptn of a select uple of central cy suburbs, I don't feel terribly nfint beg an openly gay person Auckland. It's purely bee of numbers: the gay muny the pal is mostly ma up of universy stunts unr the age of 22, or those who have been upled-up for almost a .

CRATERS & KIWIS

There are certaly very few sgle young profsnal typ on the gay Auckland don't exactly have a plethora of datg optns, the cy's sheer populatn allows for many more opportuni. I'd rate the nightlife scene for gay people both Auckland and Wellgton as "acceptable", yet neher cy is really a party town for LGBTs. Wellgton's Cuba Street offers a uple of gay-targeted cktail bars/pubs (S&Ms beg the ual go-to) but any other rtrant or bar on Cuba or surrounds, except for some of the more hedonistic hnts of Courtenay Place, I'd fe as "gay iendly".

Auckland has the add bon of K'Road, the red light district — wh s bars, clubs, sex shops and other venu, and more for people of all, the most famo gay bar, is fun a trashy (but good-trashy) way.

Eher bar, on a quiet night, will leave most LGBT people feelg somewhat disappoted — we're still teeny ty New Zealand, after om nightlife and the general abily to be proudly gay public, there's one more factor of any cy's gay scene that's important to asss. The this is a stereotype that I regret to enforce, gyms have been stmental lnchg much of my gay social life.
